1 | 6 | HOLIDAY SUN (CJ328) | O Doleuze | CP | Went back from wide gate and 8Ls back in 11th at 1200 M, still rearward and widest turning in, picked up very well to lead inside 100 M, kept on. |
2 | 3 | O'REILLY MAGIC (CJ134) | M L Yeung | TT | Box-seated in 3rd or 4th on the rails until home turn when going well, led about 250 M out, picked up by winner inside final 100 M, barely held 2nd. |
3 | 8 | TREMENDOUS PLUS (CG275) | D Beadman | B | 3-wide but with cover around 9th at the 1000 M, improved to be 4Ls off lead spinning for home, kept on well, just missed 2nd. |
4 | 1 | MIGHTY SUN (CK058) | D Whyte | B | Disputed early pace before tracking leader 1L back in 2nd through to last turn, upsides 200 M out, no extra and missed a place in closing stages. |
5 | 10 | LUCKY TYCOON (CH318) | Z Purton | B | Awkward break and soon 8Ls off the speed in 10th, about 5Ls off the speed inside winner taking last corner, recovered some minor late ground. |
6 | 12 | CENTURY MOLLY (CK067) | C W Wong | P | Led by 1L at the 1000 M, maintained a similar break until final bend, headed before the furlong pole and quickly swallowed up. |
7 | 7 | KING FAY FAY (CH089) | W Pike | -- | 4-back the rails until final bend between 5Ls and 6Ls from the speed, outpaced by the principals. |
8 | 11 | SUDDEN SPLENDOR (CE251) | S K Sit | B/XB/H/TT | Raced in 6th no worse than 4Ls from the speed before last turn, with place prospects at the 200 M but the run peaked. |
9 | 9 | BULB TREASURE (CH048) | W M Lai | -- | 3Ls back in 4th out 2-wide at the 900 M, closer in 3rd swinging for home, a place hope when 1L down at the 200 M, couldn't follow through. |
10 | 2 | ELITE FORTUNE (CJ212) | B Doyle | -- | Fractious in gates and slowest out, over-raced early on when 9Ls last, 6Ls last off last bend, never a genuine threat. |
11 | 5 | ELECTRONIC MASTER (CJ135) | B Prebble | V | Checked early on, 3-back on rails in middle stages and 3Ls back in midfield off final bend, very one-paced to conclude. |
12 | 4 | AMAZING FORTUNE (CH235) | G Cheyne | B | Caught 3-wide no cover throughout, 5Ls back around midfield at 1000 M but closer turning for home, extra work took its toll in the straight. |
