Horse Name | Jockey | Gear | Comment |
1 | 8 | LOYAL ARMY (CJ237) | W C Marwing | BO | Led them along at a steady tempo, had plenty in hand passing 300 M and kept on strongly to the line. Won cosily. |
2 | 6 | MARVELLOUS (CH026) | O Doleuze | V/TT | Went forward to obtain a handy position just behind leaders, travelled well to the straight, came with a determined challenge inside 350 M but unable to come to terms with the runaway winner. |
3 | 2 | SOHNA (CG183) | M L Yeung | B/TT1 | Swiftly away, drifted back to mid-division 6Ls behind leaders, waited with until 350 M, finished off the race really well to be nearest on the line. |
4 | 12 | NEW IDEA (CK007) | Y T Cheng | B | Raced ungenerously in early stages before settling down in a position on the rails behind midfield, gradually improving on the turn, stayed on reasonably well in straight for a non threatening 4th. |
5 | 1 | HAPPY PROGRESSION (CJ313) | H W Lai | B | Away well enough but had to be pressed to hold a midfield position, always in touch within 4Ls of leader, didn't find another gear in straight and kept on one-paced to the line. |
6 | 4 | STAR LEGEND (CJ233) | Z Purton | -- | Good jump from the inside barrier, rolled forward to be prominent behind leader, couldn't quicken when asked and just stayed on in a much laboured fashion before weakening inside 150 M. |
7 | 11 | RACING SPIRIT (CE105) | S K Sit | B/TT | Allowed to drift back on jumping, trailed 6Ls behind leader in a 2-wide position near the rear, made some progress on straightening but was never threatening. |
8 | 9 | FEEL-SO-GOOD (CG056) | J Winks | CP | Slow into stride, settled in a rearward position along the fence 6Ls behind leader, urged along passing 450 M, ran on only fairly. |
9 | 10 | HEALTHY CONTENDER (CJ342) | K T Yeung | -- | Slow to begin, settled in the rear pack 8Ls off the pace, similar turning in, hung in under pressure on straightening and ran home disappointingly. |
10 | 7 | SCOOT DA LOOT (CH274) | D Whyte | B | Rushed to the front early, tracked leader one out one back, couldn't sustain effort passing 300 M mark and dropped away rapidly. |
11 | 3 | AMO (CB125) | J Lloyd | -- | No Comments on Running information for this horse. |
12 | 5 | KING POWER (CJ334) | P H Lo | -- | Standard jump, urged along to maintain a position in midfield, under pressure rounding the bend, in trouble early on straightening. Beaten near 300 M. |
