Horse Name | Jockey | Gear | Comment |
1 | 7 | SUPER (CD036) | D Whyte | SR/XB | 3Ls back out 2-wide in 4th at 1000 M, same margin behind turning for home and edged towards stands' rail, ran on well to lead final strides. |
2 | 5 | BARRACUDA (CB320) | M Du Plessis | -- | No Comments on Running information for this horse. |
3 | 3 | SIMPLY THE BEST (CE014) | C W Wong | -- | 6Ls back in midfield on the rails at halfway, ran on okay in the straight for a place without testing the quinella pair. |
4 | 6 | PACIFIC ALLIANCE (CC230) | G Mosse | CP/XB/TT | 6th with cover about 4Ls or 5Ls from the front until home straight, had his chance to place but lacked the acceleration. |
5 | 4 | NOBLE TWINS (CH257) | Z Purton | B | Towards rear about 9Ls behind speed at halfway and a little closer turning for home, stayed on pretty well in the finish, may need more ground. |
6 | 10 | NOBLE ZOOM (CC298) | K L Chui | V | Box-seated 2Ls back in 3rd at 1000 M and much the same turning for home, still 3rd at the 200 M but weak and run out of the money thereafter. |
7 | 8 | HURRICANE WAY (CH039) | G Boss | B/TT | Squeezed out on jumping, midfield about 6Ls back early, keen at halfway, posed little danger in the stretch. |
8 | 14 | CENAMIRA (CD129) | S K Sit | -- | 3-back on fence about 5Ls behind the speed early on and same position turning for home, failed to quicken up. |
9 | 12 | TELECOM TYCOON (CC039) | P H Lo | B/TT | Slowly away and hampered early on, one from rear from 1200 M to home straight when 7Ls behind, no impression. |
10 | 9 | FILEBO (CE214) | H W Lai | H | Slowly away, checked at 1300 M and about 7Ls back in 9th at 1000 M, 4-wide (widest of all) when 5Ls behind turning for home, tame finish. |
11 | 13 | FAST WINNER (CG140) | F Coetzee | -- | Always towards rear, 8Ls behind in 10th early, hard pressed to take closer order swinging for home, did not succeed. |

13 | 1 | CHINESE BOY BOY (CH157) | Y T Cheng | V | Pressed on out 4-wide no cover to track leader out 2-wide at the 900 M, 2Ls back in 2nd and struggling turning for home, weakened rapidly. (Tactic questioned.) |
