1 6 FLYING IBIS (P023) T Clark XB/TT Sluggish at start, trailed the field to straight, finished off race strongly to snatch victory close home.
2 4 BOBO DRAGON (P147) K C Leung -- Soon took up running, crossed for rails run coming out of back straight, joined around home bend, re-gained advantage inside 300 M but collared but fast-finishing winner close to home.
3 10 JOY TOGETHER (P082) Z Purton TT Began well, settled just off the pace, came to challenge turning in holding every chance 300 metres out but unable to sustain effort closing stages.
4 5 BULLISH BOY (P008) M Chadwick TT Soon taken back from the widest gate, remained well behind to straight when inconvenienced early on, finished off race in a very nice fashion.
5 7 GOOD FRIENDS MAGIC (N445) T Angland -- Settled mainly in midfield, baulked for a run upon straightening, ran home one-paced.
6 2 NIGHTLIGN (CJ145) M L Yeung B/XB Settled one-back on rails, baulked for a run upon straightening, ran home one-paced.
7 9 SHAREMA FEELING (M195) N Callan B/TT Settled just worse than midfield, obtained clear run over 300 metres out, kept on same pace without quickening.

9 12 STAR OF FAME (CH043) R Fourie B/TT Began fairly, travelled not far off in 5th out wide joining the pace around the bend, soon weakened under pressure after straightening. (Tactic questioned) (Lame next day)
10 11 KING OF THE DAY (L324) A Suborics B/TT Broke well from a wide draw settling just outside the leader, similar turning in, weakened out of contention inside 300 metres.
11 3 ALL MY GLORY (P024) T Queally B1 Settled in midfield on rails, though inconvenienced rounding home bend saved a lot of ground turning in, found nothing under pressure in the run home.
