1 | 4 | GREAT ACHIEVEMENT (CD250) | O Doleuze | TT | Best position on fence 2Ls off pace in 3rd from 1200 M to home turn, pushed out to lead by a neck at 200 M, always held this margin to line. |
2 | 8 | COSMO SUCCESS (CC250) | D Whyte | -- | 5Ls behind in 6th when 2-wide at 1200 M, pressed on 3-wide no cover from 500 M to be 3-wide and 2Ls down in 4th at home turn, good speed to be a head 2nd at 200 M, couldn't pass winner. |
3 | 12 | AMBITIOUS TYCOON (CB157) | W M Lai | -- | On fence in 5th about 4Ls off the pace at 1200 M, not 3Ls back in same position at home turn, held up for a run until inside final 200 M, switched inside final 100 M to finish well for 3rd. |
4 | 1 | NILOMETER (CD052) | F Coetzee | CP/TT | Niggled along when 6Ls down in 8th and 2-wide at 1200 M, 3-wide and 5Ls off speed in 8th at final turn, ran on well but was always held by principals. |
5 | 7 | MIGHTY HUGO (CB413) | C Munce | -- | In rear about 10Ls off speed at 1100 M, left 3-wide no cover at 700 M and pressed on at 600 M to be 4-wide (widest of all) into homestretch when 5Ls down in 9th, stayed on well, nearest at finish. |
6 | 6 | COME SEE YOU (CA368) | E Saint-Martin | B/TT | Settled 7Ls behind on fence in 9th at 1200 M, similarly placed tackling home turn, switched inside at 200 M and finished off fairly well, nearest at finish. |
7 | 9 | FIGHTING MASCOT (CB426) | G Schofield | -- | 5Ls down in 7th on fence from 1100 M to home turn, stayed on fairly well but never likely to figure in the frame. |
8 | 11 | CRYSTAL (CE209) | S Dye | -- | Well placed 3Ls back in 4th when 2-wide at 1100 M, under pressure to hold this spot at 500 M, didn't lose much ground on the run-in but did not quicken up either. |
9 | 2 | MONEY STRONG (CC369) | Y T Cheng | SR | Didn't show his usual pace to lead easily, pushed on to lead by 1L over 1100 M out, speed solid, still 1L into home stretch, headed at 200 M and soon swamped. |
9 | 10 | PILLOW KING (CE291) | P H Lo | -- | Slowly away, niggled along in 10th when 8Ls behind at 1200 M still struggling in behind at final bend, minor late ground but never really got involved. |
11 | 3 | NOBLE SILENCE (CD238) | A Delpech | TT | Always in rear two, 10Ls last on fence at 1000 M, 8Ls last at home turn, nearest at finish but only passed one en route. |
12 | 5 | FAMOUS DANCER (CD353) | B Prebble | B | Awkward break, pressed on without cover early until being 2-wide and 1L off speed in 2nd at 1100 M, all out to maintain this position entering homestretch, swamped at 200 M and faded. |
