2 8 SUGAR SUGAR (G016) K H Chan B/TT From wide draw taken back to race behind midfield, lay out home turn, finished off well down the inside of straight, vied for lead final stages, just denied.
3 5 ARMOUR EAGLE (G093) H Bentley B/XB/TT From draw 1 stayed close enough behind leaders, kept on steadily in the run to the line but always held by first 2 late stages.
4 4 EXCELLENT PEERS (G033) M Chadwick H/XB Jumped only fairly, settled in midfield 3-4Ls off the pace, pressed along 450M, closed off mildly to go 4th near the line.
5 10 ONE FOR ALL (G012) L Hewitson B/TT Soon led setting good pace early and middle stages, headed near 200M, faded to 5th late.
6 2 SUPERB CAPITALIST (H092) Y L Chung H/TT Jumped awkwardly and lost ground, raced keenly middle stages and was caught wide without cover, kept on over final 300M without threatening leaders.
7 9 LUCKY GOLD (G112) M F Poon B From wide draw shifted across behind runners, 6Ls to make up 400M, made limited progress only.
8 6 BRILLIANT WAY (G215) C L Chau H-/SR1/TT Soon pushed along after the start, towards the rear and never travelled well at any stage, came up empty on straightening.
9 1 REWARD SMILE (H256) L Currie TT Towards the rear racing keenly, checked 800M and lost ground, in last place turning for home, never a threat to leaders.
10 11 PACKING BOLE (H246) K C Leung -- Jumped well to be settled just off leaders, raced keenly in the early and middle stages, failed to respond turning home, weakened over final 200M. (Jockey could offer no excuse for the disappointing performance.)
