1 7 ZERO GRAVITY (CH037) K T Yeung TT Overcame a wide draw to lead on the rail, set a leisurely tempo and travelled nicely to bend, kept on strongly in straight and never looked like being caught.
2 4 PRIMIATA (CG226) M L Yeung V/XB1/TT Away with them, pressed forward to settle behind leader one back on the fence, had the race run to suit, shifted out to challenge near 300 M, kept on steadily to the line but unable to get on terms with the winner.
3 11 GLOBAL WAY (CG158) K C Leung V Ordinary jump, urged to a prominent position one out one back, had every chance on straightening, stuck to his task but never looked like finding the necessary change of pace to trouble the winner.
4 12 WONDER KID (CH233) M Du Plessis P/TT Quickly away, guided to a rail position early, raced keen behind leaders making the 1st turn, held up patiently to bend, no clear run from 200 M and had to be switched to the inside. Finished off reasonably.
5 9 TRIUMPHANT GLORY (CB368) Y T Cheng B No Comments on Running information for this horse.
6 1 SIR LAGO (CH268) G Mosse B Slow to begin, shaken up to take closer order in mid-division 5Ls behind leaders, under pressure making the home turn, finished the fastest and made up plenty of ground inside 250 M.
7 2 FORTUNE GALLOP (CH191) D Whyte B Average beginning, soon taken to a position better than midfield, always had the leaders in sight, asked for effort passing 400 M, had his chance but couldn't find the extra, weakened inside 100 M.
8 6 DANEPRINT (CC221) C K Tong B- Lacked early pace, travelled in a position behind midfield 6Ls off the pace, used little in running along the fence, peeled out approaching home straight, made some headway from the rear but was overall not threatening.
9 5 MR FLOODLIGHT (CG257) Z Purton B Broke well from the inside draw, restrained to a midfield position on the rail 5Ls back, travelled well enough going into straight but found little when placed under pressure inside 300 M.
10 3 HAPPY HEROES (CD261) M W Leung B/TT- Didn't muster early speed and soon raced in the rear pack 8Ls away, had a ground saving trip along the fence, couldn't really pick up on straightening and stayed on one-paced to the line.
11 10 SIMPLY THE BEST (CE014) C W Wong CP Awkwardly away and lost ground, travelled in rear in a 2-wide position, taken wide making the home turn, didn't respond and simply plugged on in the run to the line.
12 8 BAUHINIA (CD118) J Victoire B Taken back to a rearward position on jumping, trailed 7Ls to leader turning for home, found nothing when asked before dropping away passing 100 M.
