1 | 5 | FLY HIGH (CH126) | Y T Cheng | V | From the inside gate, was able to park on the back of the leader along the paint and had the run of the race. Peeled out before the furlong and stretched away in the final stages to gain the ascendancy. |
2 | 4 | MEGABUCKS (CJ301) | B Doyle | -- | Worked forward effortlessly from a good draw to land in the lead on the fence. Didn't enjoy all favors in front but was able to pinch a break before the home turn. Lost out over the final stages. |
3 | 12 | NEW IDEA (CK007) | H W Lai | CP | Ridden along from barrier rise to settle behind the speed, 2 deep with cover. Didn't quicken early in the straight, but knuckled down to its task well over the latter stages hitting the line hard. |
4 | 10 | JUST RIGHT (CH300) | W M Lai | SR | Was unable to muster sufficient speed to cross runners to its inside whilst racing with the front division and was caught 3 deep. Gradually gave ground while racing wide and without cover on the circle but still managed to keep on. |
5 | 7 | DESCARTES (CK293) | O Doleuze | -- | Travelled 3 back the fence. Closed off satisfactorily. |
6 | 2 | LUCKY WINNER (CE124) | Z Purton | TT | Couldn't go the early speed of the race, settling midfield, 3-wide with cover. Battled away in the run to the post. |
7 | 6 | THE KID (CK080) | B Prebble | V1 | From a wide gate was taken back and settled near the rear of the field, 1 off with cover. Came widest in the final stretch and ran respectably. |
8 | 8 | FLEETING QUALITY (CJ347) | J Lloyd | -- | Raced behind midfield, 2-wide with cover. Failed to run on when asked for an effort over the final 300 M. |
9 | 11 | SPEEDY TYCOON (CK107) | C K Tong | H/TT | Travelled with the back makers along paint. Kept to the inside in the straight but failed to run on. |
10 | 9 | TRANSCENDENCE (CK280) | W Pike | -- | From an outside alley was taken across behind other runners to race in last position. Struggled at the business end of the event. |
11 | 3 | DASHING VICTORY (CK241) | J Winks | TT | Showed good early dash to settle as joint leader, 1 off. Commenced to lay out from the 500 M, and compounded in the straight, collapsing after the post. |
