1 | 5 | SOMETHING SPECIAL (CJ014) | K T Yeung | SR/TT | Eased to sit behind midfield along the fence, 6-1/2Ls off the leaders, benefited by the fast pace, progressed steadily 300 M whilst hanging out, just scored on the line by a neck. |
2 | 6 | MASTER DREAMER (CE293) | K L Chui | B | Pushed to occupy a midfield position, 5-1/2Ls off the leaders 2 to 3-wide, favoured by the fast pace, made ground steadily 400 M, just beaten in 2nd by a neck. |
3 | 8 | KING OF SHAVER (CH041) | B Prebble | B | Pushed early, insufficient speed to take a forward spot, then eased back for cover on the rails, 8Ls off the leaders, swept 3-wide at home bend, progressed steadily 250 M to grab a late 3rd. |
4 | 7 | CONNOISSEUR'S LOVE (CD234) | Z Purton | B | Hard ridden to join the leading group, 1-1/2Ls behind the leaders, trapped 2 to 3-wide, harmed by the fast early sectionals, made early move 600 M, led 400 M, hung on until 100 M overhauled and flattened. |
5 | 9 | G-ONE LEADING (CE306) | Y T Cheng | -- | Prominent, 3-1/2Ls off the leaders along the rails, not suited by the fast early tempo, just held ground in straight. |
6 | 4 | WONG'S FAVOURITE (CG131) | D Whyte | SR/V | Eased to sit about midfield along the fence, 5Ls off the leaders, helped by the fast pace, lacked room in straight, just ran on ok. |
7 | 12 | FISHKING EXCELLENT (CG232) | M Du Plessis | V | Awkward away, hard ridden to take the rail and shared the lead at fast sectionals, pressured throughout, used up too much fuel in early stages, 250 M emptied. |
8 | 1 | LE ROSSIGNOL (CG196) | C K Tong | -- | Hard ridden early to get closer towards the rail in front of midfield, then eased to sit 4Ls behind the fast pace 2-wide, held up and checked 400 M, no turn of foot when clear, flattened 200 M. |
9 | 11 | ALICE TOO (CG309) | M Nunes | B/XB/TT | Very slow away, taken back to rear, 7Ls off the fast pace 2-wide, moved up quickly around the field 4-wide from 800 M, weakened before straightening, checked 350 M. |
10 | 10 | SPRING SMILES (CG269) | H W Lai | B | Hard ridden early but failed to muster speed, favoured by the fast pace and the rail-run, however never competitive at rear. |
