1 4 JOLLY VICTOR (N140) J Moreira B/TT Settled towards the rear, travelled nicely behind race favourite, quickened up well to take lead 150M, kept on towards the finish.
2 8 AMBASSADORSHIP (N217) K Teetan B Travelled strongly in mid-division, angled out into clear 450M, quickened to lead nearing 200M but not pace of winner over final 150M.
3 10 LUCKY OMENS (P146) M Chadwick TT Switched off to last and given a waiting ride, reluctant to shift into clear running early straight, made good headway when clear inside 200M, hung late and proved difficult to ride.
4 1 RED DANCER (P264) D Whyte P/TT Obtained lead along fence under positive riding, unable to quicken with first two passing 300M but kept on steadily for moderate 4th.
5 7 WAYFOONG EXPRESS (P262) O Doleuze SR Slow to begin, urged along the rail, 4Ls off the pace halfway, stayed on mildly for a non-threatening 5th.
6 5 TODOS CON SUERTE (P350) Z Purton -- Sent forward but unable to find the rail, led 2-wide to home straight, couldn't find extra under pressure, kept on same pace to line.
7 11 BACKBENCH BLUES (P096) H W Lai SR Tracked leaders, held every chance turning in, kept on steadily until weakened inside 150M.
8 6 ENABLING (M229) G Mosse B/TT Held up midfield along the fence, ran on one paced final 400M and never seriously threatened.
9 12 EAGLE SPIRIT (L326) C Y Ho CP/XB Reserved in a 3-wide spot towards the rear, not quickened under pressure, never in contention.
10 9 PERCY JACKSON (N188) N Pinna CP Settled 3-wide midfield, found little when asked, eased final 200M.
11 2 CIRCUIT STAR (N220) M L Yeung TT Always prominent, caught 3-wide no cover over the home turn, weakened passing 400M.
