1 9 LITTLE COW (N444) Z Purton TT1 Showed good gate speed, found the fence after the 1000m and led. Made every post a winner thereafter and had the race in it keeping at the furlong, impressive debut.
2 12 HOW SPEEDY (M384) R Fourie TT Rated midfield, 4 deep, had cover. Swung the home bend widest and ran on soundly.
3 1 DEMON DEMON (N292) K C Ng B/TT Camped 4th from the rear, 2-3 wide with cover. Came wide turning for home & closed off with plenty of determination.
3 8 KING HARADASUN (N396) D Whyte TT1 Tracked the leader along the fence. Shifted out to race 1 off no cover after the 800m, settling in second position, kept on evenly in the straight.
5 4 DANEWIN TIGER (CL282) Y T Cheng -- Wide going into the first turn but managed to gain cover on the circle, 2-3 deep, slightly ahead of midfield. Kept battling away in the home straight.
6 3 FRIENDS OF YAN OI (M406) T Clark CP-/H1/TT Parked midfield, 2 deep with cover. Kept whacking away at the same pace all the way down the running.
7 13 NOBODY BUT YOU (M202) B Prebble B Settled behind midfield, 1 off with cover. Kept on at the same speed in the run to the winning post.
8 6 FANTASY AND GOLD (N326) C W Wong -- Had every hope after settling 3 back the paint. Was a beaten horse at the furlong.
9 2 DAPPER BOY (N135) W C Marwing CP1 Raced just behind the speed, looked likely to settle 1 off but was carried out after the 700m, to race 3 deep no cover. Was under pressure early in the straight but failed to respond.
10 7 JACKTHELAD (N122) H W Lai -- Crowded at the start settling towards the rear along the paint. Was dour in the home stretch.
11 5 MAKE A FORTUNE (M362) T H So -- Taken across behind runners shortly after the start and travelled at the rear of the field 2-3 wide with cover. Only plodded to the line.
12 14 BRILLIANT LIGHT (M388) C Y Ho H/XB Travelled in a rearward position 2-3 wide with cover. Made no impression when placed under pressure.
13 10 PACKING DE LAGO (N278) C K Tong -- Slow to begin, slotting onto the running rail, midfield with cover. Shifted off near the 600m, racing in the 1 off line, struggled in the home stretch.
14 11 INVICTUS (N282) M Chadwick XB1 Posted for most of the trip, 4 deep without cover, while travelling behind the speed. Never likely.
