Placing | Horse No |
Horse Name | Jockey | Gear | Comment |
1 | 4 | MUNDAHISH (BT250) | D Boeuf | V | Well there. Took over going up Rock. Seriously challenged in straight and fought on under strong driving to win by the narrowest margin. |
2 | 9 | FLYING HIGH (BL004) | E Legrix | V | Settled just off the pace. Improved upon straightening to join winner over 200 M out but pipped in the shadow of the post. |
3 | 6 | CULLINAN (BV034) | D Harrison | -- | Slightly slow into stride. Settled in midfield on rails. Commenced move and shifted out for a run entering straight. Ran on determinedly to be nearest at finish. |
4 | 8 | MERIDIAN STAR (BV177) | B Marcus | -- | Sluggish at start. Trailed field to 400 M. Ran on strongly down home straight to narrowly miss the placegetters. Did best work at finish. |
5 | 11 | COMFORT (BT156) | S King | -- | Midfield early. Hampered and dropped to rear approaching home bend. Gained midfield into straight saving ground on inside. Ran on to be nearest at finish. |
6 | 12 | RISING GLORY (BN219) | W M Lai | -- | Began well and led early, then travelled in 2nd outside leader to 400 M and gradually faded. |
7 | 7 | MASTER MERLIN (BN080) | D Whyte | BO | Began well. Settled some 2Ls off pace. Found no extra in straight. (See Racing Incidents.) |
8 | 3 | ACE ACADEMY (BT215) | K H Yu | -- | Mainly in midfield. Inconvenienced turning for home. Kept on steadily down straight. |
9 | 1 | GREENMORE (BT194) | R Fradd | B1 | Rear early. Made moderate headway passing Rock. Forced wide into straight and inconvenienced. Kept on. |
10 | 2 | GRANDSTAND (BP286) | F Sanchez | P-/B2/H | Raced wide in last few throughout. Never a factor. (See Racing Incidents.) |
11 | 5 | TERRIFIC SPIRIT (BT008) | F Coetzee | TT | Raced wide throughout. Never far off to straight then weakened. |
12 | 10 | GAGNANT (BT161) | P Smullen | B | Travelled worse than midfield. Dropped out from home bend. |
