Horse Name | Jockey | Gear | Comment |
1 | 6 | MY MELODY (CJ157) | D Whyte | B/XB/TT | Well placed in 3rd and travelled kindly throughout, picked up well in straight to lead passing 150M and won comfortably in this lower grade. |
2 | 1 | SCOOT DA LOOT (CH274) | W M Lai | B | First to jump, went forward and raced prominently outside the lead, hard driven approaching 400 M, couldn't repel the winner but put in a workmanlike effort to finish 2nd. |
3 | 4 | GO STITCH (CK062) | J Winks | B | Held up behind midfield, no clear run early in straight, picked up well from 300M to finish nearest on the line. |
4 | 14 | HAPPY SUNDAY (CE169) | G Cheyne | B/TT | Had the benefit of the rail and led them steadily, held 1L advantage inside 400M, kept on early in straight, headed 150 M and weakened over the final stages. |
5 | 12 | MUTUAL GAIN (CE275) | B Doyle | B | Well covered in midfield, driven from 400M and made some progress, not reach leaders. |
6 | 9 | TOP SPEED (CH019) | K C Leung | B | Held up in mid-division, into clear 400M and had his chance, kept on same pace final 200 M. |
7 | 5 | GLITTERING (CJ343) | Z Purton | -- | Behind the leading group 2-3Ls back, difficult to settle at times, not quicken when asked 400M out, gradually weakened inside 200 M. |
8 | 8 | DAYLIGHT EXPRESS (CH036) | O Doleuze | TT | Checked after the start and lost 2Ls, raced in restricted room from 1000M and unable to improve position, 2nd last turning in and could only make limited progress down the outside. |
9 | 2 | WINNER (CK159) | W C Marwing | B1 | Held inside running behind leaders in early stages, gradually outpaced making the home turn, no extra final 200 M. |
10 | 13 | MYSTERIOUS (CJ276) | T H So | SR/TT | In mid-division early, dropped back to the rear halfway, wide on the turn and covered more ground than others, took time to gather and only made some progress late on. |
11 | 7 | SHATIN TREASURE (CK124) | W Pike | H-/XB1/TT- | Drawn wide, shifted into a 3-wide position in the chasing group just before the turn, ridden and weakened inside 300 M. |
12 | 11 | ZERO GRAVITY (CH037) | M Chadwick | B1/TT | Never better than midfield, caught 4-wide without cover making the home turn and weakened over 300 M out. (Blood in Trachea / Jockey and Trainer questioned.) |
13 | 10 | DON FELIPE (CD273) | M W Leung | XB | Dropped to last 7Ls behind leader, pushed along to stay in touch halfway, no impression on straightening. |
14 | 3 | KING POWER (CJ334) | C Williams | CP1/TT | Towards the rear for most, not quicken when driven inside 400 M. Never a factor. |
