2 4 ENORMOUS HONOUR (T236) N Rawiller B Began well, before electing to drop back and find a position midfield on the rail. Ran on strongly from 250m, and challenged winner right to the line.
3 9 JOYFUL MOMENTS (T134) R Fourie -- Slightly crowded on jumping before finding a position worse than midfield, 2-3 wide. Raced onto heels and was checked and unbalanced 700m. Came wide on the turn, and ran on strongly, making up a lot of ground late.
4 7 BULLISH SMART (S221) N Callan CP-/B1/TT Slightly awkward to begin, but pushed forward early to lead on the rail. Held on to 50m, but a tired horse and swamped out of a placing late.
5 6 GOOD GOOD VIEW (P053) K C Ng -- Elected to drop back from the wide draw to sit at the rear of the field, 2-3 wide. Ran onto heels 700m when improving, before coming widest on the turn. Steadily improving late.
6 10 SUPREME FLIGHT (M199) K Teetan B/TT Began awkwardly and lost ground, before recovering to sit just worse than midfield 1 off the fence. Ran on fairly in the straight picking off a few slower ones.
7 13 KYNAM (P213) C Schofield CP/XB Jumped well from the widest gate, and pushed forward early to share the lead 1 off the fence. One paced in the straight, and dropped back quickly from the 200m.
8 11 SUPREME FRESH (S076) C K Tong -- Began awkwardly, before pushing forward to sit just behind the leaders on the rail. Stuck with leaders until 250m but didn't kick, and faded out late.
9 3 CHARITY KINGDOM (S278) G Mosse XB Began OK, but had to come across from the wide draw to sit worse than midfield, 4-5 wide. Came wide on the turn, but only battled on fairly and was easing out late.
10 12 IMPERIAL CONCORDE (P425) M Chadwick TT Missed the kick, and dropped out to be a very conspicuous last. Caught up by the turn, and improved in the run home but had too much ground to make up.
11 5 PRESIDENTPARAMOUNT (S420) D Whyte H Only fairly away, and lost a plate early. Reluctant to settle early, sitting midfield 3 wide, and checked off heels at the 1200m. Hampered and taken wider at 700m. Race was over by the turn, and battled to the line.
12 2 NORTHERN FALLS (T354) H N Wong -- Began well, but happy to sit midfield 1 off the fence early. Came wider on the turn, and awkward on heels briefly. Never saw out the trip, and never pushed out late.
13 14 SMILING WATCH (M325) M L Yeung B/H Began OK, and taken forward to sit in a handy position 3L off the leader 1 off the fence. Fading before the turn, gave nothing late and was eased out.
