1 7 PLEASURE GAINS (P246) Z Purton -- Broke well from inside draw, restrained to a spot behind midfield 3-4Ls off the pace, got held up on the inside until 200M, quickened up strongly to get up last stride.
2 12 BULLISH BOY (P008) M L Yeung TT Settled just off the pace in the first half, moved up to the lead 750M, responded well in straight, about 1.5L up passing 100M, got nailed last stride.
3 8 ALBICELESTE (P273) U Rispoli CP/H/SR/TT Taken back from wide draw, settled in last 6-7Ls off the pace, held up for clear run turning home, forced his way out inside 250M, closed off well to claim 3rd.
4 9 CHATER DREAM (P117) K Teetan -- Made some use early to clear the field, led 1300M to 750M, all out on straightening but lacked further response, kept on same pace to hold 4th about 2-3Ls adrift of the first 3.
5 11 SICHUAN CHARM (P409) T Angland P/TT Soon obtained a spot by the rail, never far away from leaders, held up for clear running 400M-300M, went 3rd 200M and briefly loomed a threat, run ended near 100M and faded.

7 1 PERFECT CHEERS (M341) C Y Ho B/TT Always in touch, 2Ls off leader passing 400M and appeared to be going well, not quickened under pressure however, weakened out of contention 150M.
8 4 VICTORY MASTER (M148) N Callan B/XB Fractious in stalls, began awkwardly and lost ground, held up behind midfield, 3-wide form 900M, nudged along 400M, shifted out sharply nearing 200M, not picked up the pace when straightened up.
9 6 RACING HERO (N157) B Prebble B/TT Raced keenly in mid-division, awkwardly placed behind a weakening rival turning in, found little under when driven out final 200M.
10 5 NOBLE DELUXE (M063) W C Marwing TT Sat near the rear early stages, pushed to 4-wide without cover entering back straight, covered more ground than others, swung widest home, came up empty. (Lame next day.)
11 10 JUN GONG (N325) N Pinna -- Held up 3-wide in mid-division, first to make his move passing 500M, laboured hard but ran on at same pace only, checked 150M and eased.
