1 9 ROUNDABOUT (T352) C Schofield SR Cruised forward early to sit just behind midfield, and slightly keen early. Wider on the turn. Kept grinding away down the straight, and just fell in on the line.
2 3 COBY BOY (A297) M L Yeung -- Cruised across from the wide draw to settle midfield. Had a clear run in the straight and grabbed the lead at 150m. Solid to the line and just run over in the last 2 strides.
3 6 BIG BANG BONG (V186) J Moreira TT Early contender for the lead, before easing back into the trail run in 3rd. Nosed in front for a short lived lead at 300m. Running on empty late and just held 3rd.
4 8 VOLITATION (V223) K Teetan -- Taken up early to be handily placed in 4th. Stayed on solidly early in the straight. Stronger late and was rapidly running down 3rd.
5 2 BABA MAMA (V214) N Rawiller H/V Cruised forward early and settled worse than midfield. Steady early in the straight, before winding up late. Awkward on heels 100m, and not properly tested in the last 50m.
6 7 CHUNG WAH SPIRIT (A168) N Callan TT Dropped back from the wide draw to settle towards the rear of the field. Widest on the turn. Stayed on solidly, and was making up good ground late.
7 4 MIDNIGHT RATTLER (T371) S Clipperton B Settled just forward of midfield. Battled on quietly in the straight and never threatened.
8 13 STARSHIP (V379) A Sanna B Cruised forward early to settle around midfield. Came inside off heels after missing a run at 350m. Stayed on fairly and did his best work late under minimal urging.
9 10 CHEERFUL BOY (V019) M F Poon CP-/B2/TT Pushed forward from the wide draw to share the early lead. Never got better than 1 paced in the straight and never a threat.
10 5 HANG'S DECISION (T262) H N Wong CP/H Hit the side of the barrier, awkwardly away and slow to begin. Consequently settled last. Plugged away to the line in the straight.
11 12 ENJOYABLE SUCCESS (B150) W M Lai H/P Tardy to jump and settled towards the rear of the field. Made no impression in the straight and was packed up at the 200m.
12 14 MARVEL JOY (A229) K C Ng -- Pushed early to share the lead, before taking control at 900m. Nothing left in the straight and dropped out from 300m.
13 11 DOLLAR REWARD (A305) Z Purton P-/TT Eased back early, but was stuck 3 wide and just behind midfield. Drifted to the line under minimal urging and eased last 100m.
14 1 HIGH SPIRIT (A138) K C Leung H-/TT Dropped back to the rear of the field early. Gone before the turn, and eased a long way from home.
