1 2 BEAUTY FLASH (CK314) M Chadwick TT Began well, worked across to race at leaders girth, travelled well to bend, 1/2L down turning, gradually challenged and gained upper hand final 100 M to score another cosy win.
2 13 AASHIQ (CK175) J Lloyd -- Showed early speed, pressed on to take up running, set a genuine tempo throughout, still held advantage turning, stepped up a notch turning, defied challenger to 100 M before overhauled. Well clear of rest.
3 12 SEA PRINCE (CJ245) K C Leung TT Fair to begin, held a spot 3Ls or so away in midfield, had easy run in mid-section, gradually improved to bend, kept on respectably but couldn't get near first two.
4 10 SUPER SATIN (CK116) M Du Plessis -- Out in line, ended up 3 wide in midfield, 5Ls back with cover throughout, did share of work in mid-section, didn't quicken but steadily worked home to make frame.
5 5 CIRCUIT HERO (CG304) Z Purton B/TT Amongst first to break, pushed forward but trapped 3 wide without cover, used too much to bend, 2Ls down turning, kept to task before hard run took toll inside 250 M, held ground to 100 M.
6 3 OSVALDO (CK075) S K Sit B/H/TT Standard jump, settled 6Ls back in running line, in rear division throughout, angled wide turning in, made some ground to 200 M before run ended.
7 7 RARE TREASURE (CH150) W C Marwing -- No early toe, ended up 7 to 8Ls back at rear racing 3 wide, had cover throughout, still back with last few on turning, set too much to do and only made minor ground.
8 14 AMAZING VENTURE (CJ039) W Pike -- No early speed, ended up amongst last few on rails, aided by tempo 8Ls away throughout, still last turning, made some minor progress between horses in straight but never likely.
9 9 HORSE WIN WIN (CJ078) J Winks -- Average jump, mustered to track speed 3 wide 3Ls back, had even trip to bend but used some with solid tempo, pushed along turning, didn't let down and gradually dropped out.
10 8 SOLAR POWER (CE047) C K Tong TT Ordinary break, ended up back with last few, 7 to 8Ls away throughout, not used in mid-section, had plenty to do turning, passed only tired runners.
11 4 MERIDIAN PRIDE (CH057) D Beadman B/TT Reasonable beginning, settled in nice spot 3Ls down behind leaders, raced 2 wide to bend, found nothing from turn and faded out cheaply.
12 1 HIGH MARK (CJ197) A Gryder -- Standard jump, behind midfield on fence 6Ls or so back, not asked throughout, urged along turning, lacked a response in straight.
13 11 MASTER CRISTO (CH321) M W Leung -- Well enough away, assumed prominent spot behind leaders, did some work with solid speed on, found little from bend and dropped off quickly.
14 6 LEO'S PRIDE (CK094) Y T Cheng -- Began in line, positioned just behind midfield 5Ls back, niggled approaching bend, no response and gave in from 300 M.
