Horse Name | Jockey | Gear | Comment |
1 | 1 | CENTURY MOLLY (CK067) | T H So | P-/CP1 | Well enough away, prominently placed behind leaders, quickened well to lead near 100M. Comfortably. |
2 | 6 | DAILY DOUBLE (CK043) | O Doleuze | SR | Taken back on jumping from the outside draw, towards the rear 8Ls away, finished well inside 300M once out in the clear. |
3 | 5 | AIPODER IMAGE (CJ031) | Y T Cheng | B | Soon led and set an even tempo to 700M, opened up a 3Ls gap rounding the home turn, kept on well and looked a strong chance 200M out, but was undone by the winner's sharp turn of foot final 100 M. |
4 | 12 | FASTER FASTER (CG010) | D Whyte | CP | In mid-division early but dropped to last few entering the back straight, had much to do turning in but responded well under pressure and progressed steadily down the outside. |
5 | 4 | FRAMES DEPOT (CG118) | W M Lai | B | Broke well from the inside and held a position in front of midfield, stayed on inside 300m but failed to produce any impression on the principals. |
6 | 3 | SUPER IDEAL (CC223) | G Cheyne | TT | Awkwardly away, settled on the rails 5Ls back in midfield, steadied 350M, made some headway down the inside but overall not threatening. |
7 | 11 | RAINBOW STAR (CJ275) | Z Purton | B | In touch 3Ls behind leader, pressed on near 400M but not pace to seriously challenge. (Jockey reported his saddle shifted.) |
8 | 9 | FISHKING EXCELLENT (CG232) | M L Yeung | V-/B2 | 3-wide in midfield throughout, kept on same pace in straight, weakened over the closing stages. |
9 | 10 | FORTUNE GALLOP (CH191) | C K Tong | B | Up with the early pace in 2nd, pushed along inside 500M but could find no extra in straight. Weakened rapidly final 150 M. |
10 | 2 | SMART CODE (CK078) | D Beadman | B/TT | Held midfield running, waited with till 400M, attempted a run down the inside but was held up over the final 200M. Not properly tested. |
11 | 8 | ESPACE D'OR (CJ189) | M Chadwick | P-/TT | Caught wide for most part of the race, strode forward entering the back straight to be alongside leader, couldn't keep up passing 600M and got tired early in straight. |
12 | 7 | MY SMARTIE (CJ139) | M W Leung | SR/V | Slow to begin and travelled towards the rear, under pressure and lost touch from 600M, tailed out. (Blood in trachea / unacceptable performance.) |
