1 12 TAI SING YEH (CL037) J Lloyd -- Travelled in forward of midfield in 5th position, similar but wider turning in, responded well to assert authority 100 M out, comfortably.
2 10 MY MEMORY (CK173) Y T Cheng B1 Driven forward to dispute lead on rails, held 1L advantage when fellow pacesetter faded out after straightening, unable to match winner's late burst of speed and headed inside 200 M, hung on best of the rest.
3 7 SOARING RIVER (CK137) B Doyle B Settled at the back on rails, saved ground turning in, snuck up under pressure along rails to be nearest at finish.

5 1 GOOD STRIKE (CJ351) M L Yeung -- Soon taken back to rear of field racing keenly far side, obtained a clear passage over 250 M out, kept on well to the line. (Rider dropped whip and rein 150 M.)
6 4 OCEAN TRANQUIL (CE155) G Cheyne B Began well, settled one back on rails, lost position leaving Rock to become more than 2Ls off the speed, saved ground turning in, dropped out tamely under pressure.
7 2 SUPER GOAL MASTER (CG220) K L Chui B/TT Began awkwardly, settled on rails in rear of midfield, shifted off rails for a run turning in, tightened inside 200 M, made no further impression.
8 8 ENRICHED (CK254) D Whyte TT Raced wide without cover in midfield briefly early, taken back towards rear for cover afterwards, still wide straightening, ran home one paced.
