2 | 8 | SMART BOY (V076) | C Schofield | CP | Dropped back from wide gate, settled down 5Ls near the rear, finished off honestly to go 2nd near line in a blanket finish for minor honours. Couldn't get close to winner. |
3 | 1 | EXTREMELY FUN (T024) | H T Mo | -- | Away well enough to be chasing leaders along the 3-path, no cover during race, couldn't match acceleration of winner from 250M but stuck to task well under 7lb claimer to claim 3rd in a tight finish. |
4 | 5 | CHARITY GLORY (T302) | Z Purton | CP/TT | Not hurried early stages, taken back to sit behind midfield 4Ls off the pace, stayed on mildly towards the finish, just missed 3rd. |
5 | 6 | PRINCE HARMONY (V012) | D Whyte | -- | Positively ridden from wide barrier, settled just outside leader, briefly led 250M, couldn't hold off fast finishing winner, held 2nd until concluding stages when caught up by pursuers. |
6 | 2 | WHO ELSE BUT YOU (T341) | T Berry | H | Shaken up to take the lead, set steady pace to straight, headed 250M, battled on towards the line, swamped by pursuing pack near the line. |
7 | 9 | STAR OF JOY (A171) | K Teetan | B/H | Began fairly, recovered to sit in midfield, difficult to settle during race, ran home moderately for 7th but not beaten far by 2nd to 6th. |
8 | 11 | HAPPY SURVEYS (T248) | M L Yeung | B/TT | Taken back from wide draw, held up last 6Ls off the pace, switched widest to challenge, closed off steadily without serious threat. |
9 | 7 | CHEERFULJET (A188) | N Callan | H/XB | Quickly into stride, travelled keenly when restrained behind leaders, checked and lost running 200M, not ridden out towards the finish. |
10 | 12 | HAPPY BAO BEI (S172) | K C Ng | B-/TT | Caught 3-deep in midfield, couldn't sprint enough over final 300M to pose any threat to leaders. |
11 | 4 | BLAZE STAMINA (V070) | B Prebble | B/TT | Outpaced by leaders early stages, held midfield spot along the fence, kept on same pace turning home, faded late stages. (Lame next day.) |
