1 | 4 | PREMIER SPEED (CB213) | D Whyte | SR | In 4th place on fence 5Ls off pace from 1000 M out to home straight, good speed to lead 180 M, hung out across EXPLOSIVE POWER late, just hung on. |
2 | 7 | EXPLOSIVE POWER (BV129) | F Coetzee | -- | Settled 2-wide and 5Ls off pace from 1000 M out to home straight, always a head behind winner before having ground taken by same horse final stages. |
3 | 5 | SHINING GEM (CA180) | E Legrix | SR | Always about 4 or 5-wide and 6Ls or 7Ls off speed through to stretch when travelling well, kept finding all the way to line, went close. |
4 | 8 | SALUZI (CB147) | E Saint-Martin | -- | Placed 2-wide and about 6Ls off speed until home straight, improved to go about 2Ls off lead 200 M out, kept on well to go close at finish. |
5 | 2 | REAL WINNER (CB051) | G Mosse | -- | Best away and soon racing 3-wide about 5Ls or 6Ls off pace from 1000 M out to stretch, 1L down 200 M out, 3rd best when checked 100 M out, not recover. |
6 | 1 | TOM'S FIRST (CA354) | S Dye | B | On fence 8Ls off speed down back straight, wider turning for home and hard ridden at top of stretch, 3Ls down 200 M out, stayed on to be nearest at finish. |
7 | 13 | LUCKY DICE (CB101) | D Dunn | SR | 10Ls off speed and 2-wide 1000 M out, widest of all (6-wide) into straight, 3Ls down 200 M out, kept on fairly well to be nearest at finish. |
8 | 12 | OCEAN ACROSS (CA275) | W C Marwing | B | 7Ls off pace on inside 1000 M out down back straight, 2-wide, under pressure and same distance off lead on straightening, stayed on at same pace to line. |
9 | 14 | DON CARLOS (CB007) | W M Lai | SR | 3-wide and 7Ls off front from 1000 M out to home turn, 3Ls down 200 M out, finished off at even tempo. |
10 | 3 | THE GREATEST (BN260) | M Cahill | P-/B2 | On fence about 10Ls off pace 1000 M out, slightly closer but 5-wide turning for home, stayed on at same pace to line. |
11 | 10 | ZINEDINE (BT242) | Y T Cheng | B | About 8Ls behind and 2 or 3-wide through to home straight, never looked like troubling principals at any stage. |
12 | 11 | QUICK NEWS (CB178) | K K Lai | B1/TT | Ridden to lead passing 1200 M marker, soon 4Ls, maybe 5Ls clear through to home turn, weakened at top of straight, 1L clear 200 M out and soon swamped. |
13 | 9 | GREAT DRAGON (CB060) | K H Ting | TT | 3-wide and 6Ls off pace 1000 M out, retained this fairly prominent position through to home straight, not quicken up and well beaten 300 M out. |
