Horse Name | Jockey | Gear | Comment |
1 | 1 | FLYING SUPREME (CK226) | B Doyle | CP1 | Pressed forward from widest gate, soon a neck clear out 2-wide till straightening, maintained this margin to line, gritty effort with top weight. |
2 | 9 | BE MY SONG (CH272) | M L Yeung | H/TT | Went forward as usual, about a neck back in 2nd behind winner on fence down back straight and same at 200 M, kept on well but always just held. |
3 | 11 | STAR LEGEND (CJ233) | G Cheyne | H | Prominent but 3-wide no cover initially, over 1L back in 3rd turning in, stayed on fairly well despite ducking in then out under pressure, held 3rd. |
4 | 14 | DASH (CG236) | W M Lai | B2 | Suited by slow tempo to box-seat 2Ls back in 3rd on rails down the back straight, same off last turn and only held his ground to run 4th at the wire. |
5 | 4 | PACHINKO (CH208) | W C Marwing | B/TT | Pressured early on when about 6Ls back in 10th, closer on straightening, kept on fairly without troubling the leaders. |
6 | 3 | TURF WINNER (CK061) | O Doleuze | -- | Midfield with cover between 3Ls and 4Ls off the speed before home turn, finished off at same pace and couldn't reach the leaders. |
7 | 6 | LUCKY AMORE (CK353) | D Beadman | B1/TT1 | Didn't break well, keen in a worse than midfield position and at least 6Ls adrift before last turn, made back some late ground. |
8 | 2 | THE RIFLE (CK208) | D Whyte | TT1 | 3-wide no cover in places, around midfield over 4Ls from pace through to final bend, kept on at the same pace down the centre. |
9 | 13 | TOUCH LUCKY (CH193) | H W Lai | B/XB/TT | Slow to muster pace, 6Ls back and rearward at 800 M and worse off cornering for home, never dangerous. |
10 | 5 | BLADE FORCE (CK330) | G Mosse | TT1 | Trapped 4-wide no cover throughout, midfield down the back before losing his position on the circle, no recovery in the stretch. |
11 | 10 | FORTUNE KING (CK201) | Z Purton | -- | Reasonably placed 3-back the rails 4Ls from speed down back straight, no excuse for being so weak in the final 200 M. |
12 | 12 | BLUE MAGIC (CK032) | W Pike | V/H | Over-raced in 5th place down back straight, 4Ls back in 6th off final turn, petered out in the stretch. |
13 | 7 | PERFECT TEN (CL030) | B Prebble | -- | Slowest out and soon 9Ls last, same turning for home, never in the hunt. |
14 | 8 | WONDERFUL DOLPHIN (CJ274) | M W Leung | -- | Tended to hang with awkward head carriage in a worse than midfield position throughout, never likely and eased down inside final 200 M. |
