Horse Name | Jockey | Gear | Comment |
1 | 9 | STERLING WONGCHOY (H273) | H Bowman | B/XB | Moved up to track leader, travelled very well into home straight, quickened and took over nearing 200M, continued on strongly late stages for a dominant victory. |
2 | 4 | WINDICATOR FAMILY (H419) | M F Poon | V | Jumped on terms, restrained to race ahead of midfield, driven wide into straight, tried hard over final 300M but couldn't get closer to the winner. |
3 | 11 | COOL BLUE (H011) | A Atzeni | E/P/TT | From draw 2 settled down in midfield along the inside, kept on evenly final 300M to claim 3rd. No threat to the runaway winner. |
4 | 8 | PERFECT PEACH (E488) | C L Chau | P-/B2/TT2 | Guided to the fence after the jump, held up behind mid-division 7Ls back, stuck to the inside passing 400M, ran on mildly but wasn't good enough to challenge the runaway winner. |
5 | 2 | SMILING EMPEROR (J371) | H Bentley | V/XB | Restrained in a position behind midfield 6-7Ls off the pace, swung wide home turn before running on mildly in the straight. Always held by leaders. |
6 | 3 | APOLAR FIGHTER (J169) | Y L Chung | CP-/B2/TT | Obtained a position in second half of the field early stages, fell back to the rear 700M, finished off the race reasonably well, made some ground without threatening. |
7 | 6 | NINJA DERBY (H339) | M Chadwick | H/TT | Sent forward to settle in prominent 3rd, pressed along inside 400M but lacked a kick and was safely held in the end. |
8 | 12 | MEDIC ELITE (G129) | M L Yeung | H/PC/TT | From draw 1 made some use early stages to hold an on-pace position, responded only fairly to pressure passing 400M, never a winning hope. |
9 | 7 | VERBIER (J187) | L Ferraris | V/TT | Jumped only fairly, made some early use to cross to the lead, tired mid-straight and was overrun in the latter stages. |
10 | 10 | MILES AWAY (J221) | B Thompson | B-/TT | Settled down 2-wide in midfield, came under serious pressure 500M and failed to make any impression. Never in the hunt. |
11 | 5 | U S S CONSTITUTION (H357) | K Teetan | H/TT | From draw 12 taken back to last, 10Ls off the pace on settling, had big task in hand 400M and failed to finish off the race. |
12 | 1 | CONFRINGO (J322) | K C Leung | V2/TT | Dropped back to near last early stages, driven 500M swinging wide for home, failed to run on under top weight. |
