2 8 SMART BOY (V076) C Schofield CP Dropped back from wide gate, settled down 5Ls near the rear, finished off honestly to go 2nd near line in a blanket finish for minor honours. Couldn't get close to winner.
3 1 EXTREMELY FUN (T024) H T Mo -- Away well enough to be chasing leaders along the 3-path, no cover during race, couldn't match acceleration of winner from 250M but stuck to task well under 7lb claimer to claim 3rd in a tight finish.
4 5 CHARITY GLORY (T302) Z Purton CP/TT Not hurried early stages, taken back to sit behind midfield 4Ls off the pace, stayed on mildly towards the finish, just missed 3rd.
5 6 PRINCE HARMONY (V012) D Whyte -- Positively ridden from wide barrier, settled just outside leader, briefly led 250M, couldn't hold off fast finishing winner, held 2nd until concluding stages when caught up by pursuers.
6 2 WHO ELSE BUT YOU (T341) T Berry H Shaken up to take the lead, set steady pace to straight, headed 250M, battled on towards the line, swamped by pursuing pack near the line.
7 9 STAR OF JOY (A171) K Teetan B/H Began fairly, recovered to sit in midfield, difficult to settle during race, ran home moderately for 7th but not beaten far by 2nd to 6th.
8 11 HAPPY SURVEYS (T248) M L Yeung B/TT Taken back from wide draw, held up last 6Ls off the pace, switched widest to challenge, closed off steadily without serious threat.
9 7 CHEERFULJET (A188) N Callan H/XB Quickly into stride, travelled keenly when restrained behind leaders, checked and lost running 200M, not ridden out towards the finish.
10 12 HAPPY BAO BEI (S172) K C Ng B-/TT Caught 3-deep in midfield, couldn't sprint enough over final 300M to pose any threat to leaders.
11 4 BLAZE STAMINA (V070) B Prebble B/TT Outpaced by leaders early stages, held midfield spot along the fence, kept on same pace turning home, faded late stages. (Lame next day.)
