1 | 13 | LOVE ON EARTH (BT110) | Y T Cheng | -- | Raced 2 and 3-wide about 5Ls off pace through to straight when travelling well, quickened up to go 3Ls down at 200 M, kept on well to lead final strides. |
2 | 9 | COSMO STAR (CA260) | W C Marwing | TT | Wide in midfield early before being sent on to lead out 4-wide 900 M out, led out 3-wide entering straight, vulnerable 300 M out but rallied gamely and only caught final strides. (See Racing Incidents.) |
3 | 7 | ELEPHANT DANCE (CA391) | E Legrix | -- | 6Ls off pace and 4-wide down back straight, 4Ls down but 5-wide turning for home and still well adrift 200 M out, finished final 200 M very strongly to be nearest at finish. |
4 | 10 | SONGS OF PRAISE (CB005) | S Dye | B/TT1 | Unable to dominate early on and forced to settle outside pacesetting SWEETIE, still on pace turning in but caught flat-footed about 300 M out, kept on at same pace to line. |
5 | 6 | ALWAYS ON (BV274) | E Saint-Martin | -- | Flew the start but dragged back to settle about 4Ls off pace out 4-wide, similarly placed turning for home and at 200 M marker, ran on well final stages to be nearest at finish. |
6 | 4 | FELICITY (CB079) | A Marcus | B1/TT1 | Raced prominently, no worse than 2Ls off pace until home straight, loomed upsides leader and eventual runner-up COSMO STAR 300 M out, not follow through. |
7 | 3 | LUCKY DICE (CB101) | W Woods | SR1 | At least 9Ls or 10Ls off pace out 2-wide early, hard ridden 6Ls down and 7-wide turning for home, responded to constant pressure to close off very well and be nearest at finish. |
8 | 1 | FULL EFFORT (BT216) | K S Yu | -- | Took good hold in midfield about 3Ls to 4Ls off pace out 2-wide until home straight when one-paced and unable to come on. |
9 | 2 | TOUCH OF CLASS (CB129) | F Coetzee | B1 | Raced too freely through early stages when 3-wide and about 2Ls to 3Ls off early pace, same position on straightening ut not pick up and beaten 300 M out. |
10 | 12 | HOW FLUKE (CA340) | M W Leung | SR2 | Always at least 3Ls to 4Ls off speed on or one off the fence until 400 M out, found nothing off bridle in straight and soon dropped right away. |
11 | 5 | MAJESTIC WARRIOR (BV234) | W M Lai | B | Never on bridle racing 2-wide about 3Ls off pace down straight, under pressure to take closer turning for home, no extra from that point. |
12 | 14 | EN RAPPORT (BP122) | K C Tsang | B | Awkwardly into stride losing 2Ls or 3Ls as a result, on fence but 10Ls off pace 1000 M out, never got any closer to leaders than that. |
