1 9 IRON WILL (G386) K Teetan H/TT Chased leader 2-wide in a very slow run race, driven near 400M to challenge for the lead before gaining upper hand final 100M. Ridden out to prevail. (Trainer : suited today by racing outside the lead in a slowly run race.)
2 3 FAST BUCK (H126) A Badel P1 Soon led, allowed to dictate proceedings with a very slow pace, tried hard on straightening to fight off pursuing rival, grudgingly gave way final 100M.
3 1 AMAZING TEENS (E449) H Bowman H/P/TT Tracked leaders in a slowly run race, held up for a few strides near 200M, kept on well late under top weight to claim 3rd just in time but was comfortably held by first two.
4 8 ASIAN ONE (E400) Z Purton PC/XB/TT Reserved in mid-division, raced keenly middle stages in a very slowly run race, looked threatening mid-straight when driven out to challenge leaders, flattened final 100M losing 3rd place last stride.
5 4 BILLIONAIRE SECRET (G303) C Y Ho H/PC/XB Jumped awkwardly and lost ground then taken across behind runners to race in last, pace very slow throughout, 4-5Ls to make up 400M, closed off fastest to be nearest at the line.
6 5 DARCI LEGEND (G376) L Hewitson H/TT Dropped back to near the rear, pushed wide entering home turn, kept on fairly final 300M, not reach leaders.
7 10 FORTUNE PRESIDENT (G054) M Chadwick -- Jumped only fairly, obtained a midfield spot in mid-division along the fence, couldn't go on passing 300M, never threatened.
8 7 HIGH CLOUD (G351) H Bentley B/XB Caught 3-wide no cover in a slowly run race, crept forward halfway to be tracking leaders making the home turn, couldn't sustain run passing 300M, faded towards the line.
9 2 KING'S CAPITAL (E077) Y L Chung B- Shifted across behind runners, raced towards the rear in a very slow run race, driven along 450M but not going the pace to challenge.
10 6 NUNCHUKS (C357) L Ferraris TT In 4th place on settling, pace very slow, driven along 450M but failed to respond, dropped to last place 200M from home.
