1 2 MARVEL TRIBE (S142) M L Yeung B Always prominent, chased leader along 2-path, dueled with the leader passing 250M, kept coming and eventually gained upper hand late stages.
2 4 FANTASTIC EIGHT (A079) U Rispoli TT Urged along from draw 11 and crossed to the lead passing 900M, driven out 300M, went head to head with rival, drifted out under pressure, gave way late stages.
3 9 PRIMERO (A094) T Berry B Dropped back to near the rear, came 3-wide home turn, closed off willingly to claim 3rd near line but couldn't get closer to front pair.
4 10 ACCLAIMED LIGHT (T369) K C Leung B Held up 2-wide in midfield, moved closer home turn to be 2L off the pace at 400M, kept on solidly to the finish but well held by first 2, lost 3rd late.
5 6 WHO DAT SINGA (A003) K Teetan H Restrained behind mid-division, 4Ls off the pace turning in, stayed on mildly for respectable 5th.
6 5 MR POTENTIAL (V270) D Whyte -- Taken back behind runners from wide draw, settled at the rear 6-7Ls off the pace middle stages, brought widest into straight, made steady ground but no impression on the front runners.
7 1 TURF SPRINT (T396) N Rawiller H Never far off from leaders but couldn't come on inside 300M, only battled away.
8 11 TRAVEL EMPEROR (A316) J Moreira H1/TT From draw 12 caught 3-wide no cover just off the pace, couldn't quicken to challenge leaders despite clear running inside 400M, out of contention mid-straight.
9 8 SWEETIE BARLEY (A231) C Y Ho -- Away well enough, sat back in midfield along the rail, just didn't let down on straightening, never going pace to challenge.
10 12 STARLIT KNIGHT (A137) K C Ng CP1/TT Slow to begin, settled at the rear 7Ls off the pace early stages, couldn't quicken on straightening, never a threat.
11 7 WINNERS PIONEER (V195) B Prebble -- Dropped back towards the rear, 2nd last turning in and didn't run on. Never a factor.
12 3 ARM RUNDA (V248) O Doleuze B/TT Went forward, sat behind leader along rail, couldn't keep up passing 300M, weakened to last.
