1 | 14 | GRAND CHAMPION (M319) | K C Leung | TT | Ridden patiently, third from the rear, 2-3 wide with cover. Rounded the home turn widest and closed off with plenty of purpose to have the race in its keeping 50m out. |
2 | 13 | FLYING IN (CK120) | G Mosse | CP | Travelled on the rails with cover, behind midfield. Worked its way out into the clear in the run home and hit the line well. |
3 | 1 | MR GOURMET (P261) | T Angland | B1 | Camped ahead of midfield, 2 wide with cover. Hit the front at the 150m, grudgingly gave way in the run to the post. |
4 | 8 | GREAT STORIES (N181) | M Demuro | -- | Made its run from 2nd last, after travelling close to the running rail with cover. Looked for runs through the field in the straight and closed off soundly. |
5 | 3 | SMART PLANET (S046) | K Teetan | -- | Parked midfield, 2 deep with cover. Ran on steadily without threatening. |
6 | 11 | CRIMSON HEART (P237) | C Y Lui | B/H/TT | Began awkwardly and lost ground, settling midfield the fence, had cover. Kept grinding away in the home straight. |
7 | 5 | PERFECT MOMENT (N168) | W M Lai | V | Led early along the fence before being joined in the lead and travelling 2nd after the 900m. Kicked well clear early in the straight but was swamped near the 150m. |
8 | 12 | FIERY FOUR BY FOUR (S067) | N Callan | H | Jumped well then raced keenly in the early stages when looking for cover. Eventually coursed 1 out I back near the 800m. Couldn't find any extra under pressure & faded in the run to the line. |
9 | 10 | COOL PAL (S035) | T H So | -- | Box seated early prior to settling 3 back the fence. Kept battling away until the 250m, couldn't sustain effort and weakened soon after. |
10 | 4 | JOLLY GOOD STAR (S003) | W C Marwing | TT | Left 3 wide without cover on the circle, racing midfield. Was never a factor thereafter and only plodded down the running. |
11 | 2 | KING'S FOLKS (N296) | C K Tong | B | Effectively box seated after the 800m. Had no real excuses and was well beaten approaching the 400m. |
12 | 9 | ROYALE ELEGANCE (S098) | J Moreira | H | Went forward midrace after being wide & unable to secure cover back in the field. Led narrowly 1 off near the 900m. Failed to finish off. |
13 | 6 | GOLDLAND DANCER (N316) | A Suborics | CP-/B1 | Reared as the start was effected, missing the break considerably, settling a long last. Was never in the hunt and finished well back. |
14 | 7 | TELEPHATIA (P405) | M Chadwick | B | Raced worse than midfield, 2 wide with cover. Struggled in the home stretch. |
