1 8 THE BOOM BOX (K076) C Y Ho -- From draw 12 maintained a position behind midfield, raced keenly middle stages and got shuffled back on the home turn, quickened up nicely from 350M to get up close home for a pleasing debut victory.
2 9 ISLAND BUDDY (J217) M Chadwick B/TT Positively ridden, vied for the lead on inside, 2nd turning for home, kept responding well under pressure in the straight, just no match for winner late.
3 4 PANDA (H466) A Pouchin B- Jumped only fairly and from a wide barrier was taken back to last in the early stages, over 7Ls to make up 400M, closed off fastest down the outside to go 3rd. Nearest finish.
4 2 SUPER LEGENDS (H364) J McDonald TT Went forward on jumping from draw 10, caught 3-wide outside leader first half of the race, opened up a 2L lead 400M, kept going well until no extra and headed 100M out.
5 11 LUCKY MAN (J315) L Hewitson BO/H Away well enough, restrained to race in midfield along the inside, held up briefly top of the straight before staying on for a non-threatening 5th.
6 5 BEAR CHAMP (J313) A Atzeni H Drifted back to race behind midfield, saved ground on inside, made some progress final 400M but not going the pace to challenge leaders.
7 1 ELEGANT LIFE (J366) C L Chau CP Began well, restrained to race in a 3-wide position midfield, shuffled back to near last turning for home, closed off mildly under big weight but could make no impression on first few.
8 10 PERFECTO MOMENTS (J003) Y L Chung CP Settled down midfield 4Ls off leader, kept on only fairly in the straight, never a threat to leaders.
9 3 CHEERFUL WORLD (H352) L Ferraris -- Jumped on terms from draw 1, always in touch behind leaders, moved up to 3rd mid-straight, run ended 150M. (Bled.)
10 6 GOLDENTRONICMIGHTY (K002) M L Yeung SR/TT Chased leaders, came under pressure to maintain position home turn, soon drifted out of contention on straightening.
11 12 GANGNAM STAR (H326) H Bentley B-/XB Away with them, drifted back to race near last, plenty to do 400M but failed to run on.
12 7 GOOD CHAP (J499) H Bowman -- Urged along after the start, soon up with leaders, struggled to hold position 500M, weakened rapidly on straightening. (Difficult to load / Unacceptable barrier manners and performance.)
