1 | 10 | FULL BLESSINGS (CH238) | K L Chui | TT | Settled 2 to 3-wide, in third position and in pursuit of the breakaway leader. Responded well to pressure turning for home to reel in the leader and surge to the front after the 100 M. |
2 | 2 | COSMO SUCCESSOR (CH118) | C K Tong | -- | Settled in front of midfield, 2 deep with cover. Worked into the clear in the straight and got to the line soundly. |
3 | 12 | SPLENDID SAILS (CG077) | H W Lai | B/SR | Parked close to the on pace runners along the fence. Battled on gamely over the final stages. |
4 | 8 | TOUCH LUCKY (CH193) | D Whyte | B-/XB/TT | Camped behind the speed, 3 to 4-wide no cover. Kept on well in the straight. |
5 | 1 | GOLDEN BALL (CH128) | C Soumillon | -- | Was midfield the fence before being checked near the 800 M and was last approaching the first bend. Closed off strongly. |
6 | 6 | JADE DANCER (CE170) | O Doleuze | B | Pressed on from a wide gate and by the first turn had crossed to lead about 2 off the fence and approximately 4L in front. Tired in the run to the line. |
7 | 4 | TOUT VA BIEN (CJ020) | S Dye | P2/TT | Settled in last position from the outside gate. Was hampered near the 800 M, went wide from that point on and had a tough run from there on. |
8 | 3 | VICTORY SPEEDY (CJ206) | G Mosse | B/TT1 | Chased the tearaway leader throughout, fading on its effort inside the last 100 M. |
9 | 7 | VILLAGE KID (CK018) | K C Leung | -- | Travelled towards the rear 2 deep with cover before finding the rail near the 700 M. Plodded to the finish. |
10 | 11 | ODE TO JOY (CJ298) | M Du Plessis | B | Raced 2-wide with cover behind midfield. Failed to quicken in the final stretch, weakening over the final stages. |
11 | 9 | TATTENHALL DELIGHT (CG068) | B Doyle | B | Reared as the start was effected and lost considerable ground. Never got into the race thereafter despite being hampered at the 800 M traveling at the rear for the majority of the event. |
12 | 5 | BLUE MAGIC (CK032) | T H So | -- | Settled midfield the fence. Was a beaten horse before the turn and gave in quickly in the home straight finishing tailed out. (To trial.) |
