1 | 12 | SO PRETTY SO SMART (CK063) | K L Chui | B | 3-wide with cover and 5Ls back in 8th at 1000m; niggled to take closer order at 200m; responded best and led 50m out; kept on. |
2 | 4 | GO STITCH (CK062) | K C Leung | B | Handily placed either in box-seat or 3-back the rail before final turn; picked up nicely to lead 300m out; grabbed by the winner about 50m out; held 2nd. |
3 | 7 | WIKI WIKI (CD205) | J Lloyd | -- | Messy start; towards rear through first half of race; improved tracking runner-up GO STITCH along inner turning for home; all out to get 3rd. |
4 | 9 | CHEERFUL HAPPINESS (CE220) | B Doyle | B | Settled 8Ls last at the 1000m; still last and 6-wide (widest) turning for home; good late ground down the centre of the track; nearly nicked a place. |
5 | 13 | NOBLE ZOOM (CC298) | M L Yeung | V | Best away; led by 1L on fence at 1200m; headed soon after and soft trail in 3rd until last bend; 1L back in 2nd at 200m; tired late and missed a place. |
6 | 1 | CLOVIS (CH044) | O Doleuze | B2 | Raced 10th and 2-wide some 6Ls behind early pace; steadied at 500m and held up from 400m to 300m; one-paced when clear. |
7 | 8 | BERNINI (CJ168) | G Cheyne | B | Midfield with cover 4Ls off pace at halfway; pressured to maintain this proximity turning for home; could only hold his ground. |
8 | 5 | WING MASTER (CK258) | D Whyte | B/XB/TT | Awkward break; better than midfield within 2Ls or 3Ls before before straight; had every chance to at least place; tended to hang under pressure. |
9 | 2 | EAST RIDER (CK283) | M Chadwick | B1/TT | Midfield on the rails down the back straight; slightly closer 3Ls off lead turning for home; didn't find much off the bit. |
10 | 11 | TELECOM LUCKY STAR (CK025) | S K Sit | TT | 2-wide and 1L back in 2nd at the 1000m; still right there off the last bend; very weak to conclude. |
11 | 14 | KING OF TURF (CJ102) | W M Lai | BO | Worse than midfield mostly in 11th throughout; at least 6Ls from the pace; yielded ground on the run-in to the line. |
12 | 10 | KING'S CHOICE (CG040) | T H So | -- | Pressed forward from wide gate to dispute lead at 1000m and lead by 1L on fence at 800m; headed again at top of straight; faded out very quickly. |
13 | 6 | FEEL THE FUN (CJ205) | Z Purton | -- | 3-wide with cover when checked 900m out and left without cover soon after on the circle; 3Ls down turning in; soon beaten. |
14 | 3 | TRANSCENDENCE (CK280) | B Prebble | -- | Keen early on; left wide no cover for most of back straight; always rearward; seemed quite reluctant to stretch out in the straight. |
