1 | 7 | HAPPY GUYS (CL275) | H W Lai | B | Close up to the pace throughout, tracked leader in 3rd making the home turn, shifted out to clear 250M, took off inside 150M and powered away from the 2nd. Won with ease. |
2 | 4 | HELENE WITTY (CL228) | G Mosse | TT | Tracked leader along the rail early, turned 2-wide entering back straight, picked up well from 400M and moved to the lead nearing 250M, kept on well but had no answer to the winner’s late surge final 100M. |
3 | 10 | SUNNY MORE (M150) | K C Leung | H/TT | Held up midfield along the inside, pushed along nearing 400M, stayed on well to go 3rd 100M out under hands and heels riding. (Jockey fined for dropping the whip early straight.) |
4 | 12 | WO AI NINN (CK223) | J Lloyd | B/H | Dropped back to a rearward position after the start, taken to 4-wide approaching home turn but eventually directed back to the inside nearing 400M, ran on well from off the pace. |
5 | 5 | HO HO LIFE (CL209) | D Whyte | B | Positioned 2-wide in midfield, driven along 500M out, kept on evenly to the line but found less than expected. |
6 | 8 | EURO SWIFTLY (CK091) | W C Marwing | CP/H/TT | Held up behind midfield and looked to be travelling strongly throughout, went clear inside 300M, stayed on without threatening. |
7 | 1 | BEAUTY FOREVER (CK074) | B Prebble | B/TT | Sent to the front soon after the start and led uncontested, came under pressure nearing 400M but could find no extra under a forceful ride, headed 250M out, eased passing 100M. |
8 | 3 | OCEAN PRINCE (CK066) | C Y Ho | -- | Forwardly placed in 3rd in the first half, pushed 3-wide no cover from 900M, ran on one-paced final 300M. (Jockey advised not to cover unnecessary ground.) |
9 | 11 | THE ONLY KID (CH173) | W M Lai | V/TT | Towards the rear over 10Ls back in early stages, driven 450M out but could only make limited progress, never threatened. |
10 | 6 | GREEN CASH (CL327) | D Beadman | B/XB1 | Towards the rear, made a short-lived effort when taken to 4-wide halfway round the home turn, flattened out passing 200M. (Lame next day.) |
11 | 2 | MAJESTIC HEART (CH319) | C K Tong | B/H | Began awkwardly and raced in clear last for the first half of the race, made a bold move from 800M round the outside of field, weakened and no extra nearing 200M. |
12 | 9 | KENOBE (CH222) | M L Yeung | XB | Caught 3-wide no cover in midfield, outpaced approaching the entrance of home straight, soon out of contention. |
