1 | 9 | FAT DRAGON (CD130) | M W Leung | -- | Away with rest, ridden hard to drive through and take front, travelled well setting an even speed in front, 1/2L clear turning, showed plenty of fight to hold off late challenger. |
2 | 11 | CIRCUIT HERO (CG304) | G Mosse | -- | Began with field, couldn't get across from wide gate and posted 3 wide 2Ls back with cover, eased 4 wide turning, let down nicely and kept closing to go down by only a narrow margin. |
3 | 10 | SPARKLING STAR (CD055) | K Shea | B | Moderate jump, raced behind midfield 2 or 3 wide. 6Ls off speed, trailed 3 wide between horses on circle, in traffic turning, warmed up last 250 M making plenty of late progress. |
4 | 6 | YANKEE (CH271) | B Prebble | -- | Standard beginning, settled 2 wide 6Ls off frontrunners in midfield, travelled well between horses on circle, hit clear at 350 M, produced an improved effort finishing off well to make frame. |
5 | 8 | CALIFORNIA LUCK (CG215) | E Saint-Martin | TT | Away smartly, held leaders back and had an easy time in mid-section, right there on turning, steadily progressed into clear at 250 M, just ran out of condition last 100 M. |
6 | 13 | DR MORE (BV164) | Y T Cheng | B | Ordinary jump, settled amongst last few 7 to 8Ls back on rails, eased 2 wide on circle, still well back on bend, made plenty of ground between horses in straight to be nearest on line. |
7 | 4 | FIRST BABY (CG170) | K T Yeung | CP/TT1 | Well enough to begin, ended up in midfield running line 3 to 4Ls back, gradually improved to be 2Ls back turning, didn't pick up but kept on evenly in run to line (steadied 100 M). |
8 | 12 | FAVOURITE SUPREME (CH203) | S K Sit | TT | Checked early and lost valuable ground, raced at tail 10Ls back, circled field on bend, from 600 M, came widest into straight, made some progress but set an impossible task. |
9 | 3 | DIM SUM (CH226) | Z Purton | -- | Fast jumpout, took a trail and ended up 3Ls back in midfield on fence, not asked in mid-section, tracked nicely on bend, couldn't find daylight and only found run last 150 M when race was over. |
10 | 5 | MASTERY (CC176) | O Doleuze | TT | Slow to begin, raced towards rear 7 to 8Ls 2 to 3 wide, always rearward and same margin back on turning in, lacked usual finishing burst but made some late progress from an impossible spot. |
11 | 7 | FLY ME TO THE MOON (CG104) | D Whyte | B | First to hit ground, ended up outside leader, pressured throughout by outside horse, right there 1/2L down turning, weakened from 250 M before checked and dropped out all together. |
12 | 14 | DR POSSI (CE288) | C W Wong | -- | Fair to jump, raced in midfield on rails 5 to 6Ls back, had a quiet time throughout, saved ground on bend, just produced a one-paced effort in straight. |
13 | 2 | WADADELIGHT (CC340) | W M Lai | B | Began with them but caught out from a wide alley, posted 3 and 4 wide without cover 5Ls back, did plenty of work in run, niggled turning, faded out easily. |
