PAKISTAN STAR was slow to begin. From a wide barrier, ACTUARIAT was steadied in the early stages and shifted across behind runners. CITRON SPIRIT was also steadied in the early stages and shifted across behind runners. Despite being vigorously ridden along in the early stages, TEN FLAMES failed to muster speed. RUN FORREST made the first turn near the 900 Metres awkwardly. Making the turn after the 900 Metres, KA YING KID got its head up when awkwardly placed close to the heels of COLOSSUS. TEN FLAMES, which was following KA YING KID, commenced to prove very difficult to settle and after being checked away from the heels of KA YING KID got its head on the side and shifted onto the heels of AMBER DRAGON. After the 900 Metres, RADIANT STEED was left racing wide and without cover. CITRON SPIRIT was badly held up for clear running from rounding the Home Turn until passing the 250 Metres. In the Straight, SUPER LEADER hung in and proved difficult to ride. Passing the 150 Metres, RADIANT STEED was shifted to the outside of KA YING KID after being disappointed for running inside that horse. RADIANT STEED was then steadied passing the 100 Metres when disappointed for running between KA YING KID which shifted out and SUPER LEADER which continued to hang in. A veterinary inspection of RUN FORREST immediately following the race did not show any significant findings. PAKISTAN STAR and MARVEL HERO were sent for sampling.
