1 6 FUN RIDER (CK231) T Angland B Settled behind midfield and travelled strongly for most of the contest, quickened through a gap mid-straight and forged to clear near 100M, won with something in hand.
2 1 LITTLE DREAMS (L095) A Suborics -- Reserved near the rear, 6Ls off the pace in middle stages, driven inside 500M, made steady progress from 300M out, nearest finish.
3 5 ELEGANCE KLAMMER (M228) B Prebble SR/TT Held up in mid-division, ridden to chase leaders passing 500M, stayed on to claim 3rd but outpaced by first two over final 150M.
4 10 JIMSON THE BEST (L016) C W Wong -- Pushed early to take up a prominent position, briefly looked a threat passing 250M but turned one pace final stages.
5 11 KING OF REASON (M154) C Y Ho H From wide barrier crossed to race behind leader, moved up to challenge nearing 400M, briefly led mid-straight, no extra final stages.
6 8 WINNING EDGE (L297) O Doleuze SR Not far off in 5th, made a brief effort turning in, outpaced final 200M.
7 2 PENGLAI XIANZI (CK248) M Chadwick TT Enjoyed an uncontested lead from 1300M but found little for pressure passing 300M, weakened over final 200M.
8 12 PERFECT CHEERS (M341) W M Lai B/TT Held up in midfield 3-wide, shuffled back when hampered by a beaten horse near 500M, found very little off the bridle.
9 3 CHEER (L277) Z Purton TT Out the back, pushed along inside 600M but failed to pick up. Never a factor.
10 9 BANKSTERS BONUS (N113) Y T Cheng SR Held up in the outside of last trio, didn't travel and came under pressure home turn, soon beaten.
11 4 DISTILL (N270) R Fourie -- In mid-division along the fence, nudged along passing 500M but not able to go with leaders, dropped out 200M.
12 7 EMPEROR CLAUDIUS (M128) D Whyte P/XB Caught 3-wide without cover throughout, looked uneasy making the turn for home, dropped out rapidly nearing 400M, heavily eased.
