1 | 1 | CAT STORM (CL082) | M Chadwick | TT | Last out and was taken to rail behind runners. Moved up to race behind midfield making the home turn. 4Ls down on straightening. Not clearest until final furlong. Rallied on final 100M to charge down rivals. |
2 | 4 | HUSSLER (CJ323) | D Whyte | B | Soon in front but elected to take seat behind the leader. Attacked the lead in the home straight and hit front 150M. Kept on but failed to fend off the winner closing stages. Barely held 2nd at finish. |
3 | 9 | LUNAR REFLECTIONS (CL009) | H W Lai | -- | 2-wide at midfield through to the home turn and was 4Ls away leaving the bend. Finished off strongly and nearly snatched 2nd. |
4 | 5 | LOMBARDI (CK406) | O Doleuze | -- | 3-wide ahead of midfield through to the home turn and was 3Ls off entering the final stretch. Kept giving to make frame but was firmly put aside by the front trio closing stages. |
5 | 7 | ACHILLES OF TROY (CJ190) | Z Purton | B/TT | At rear near the fence early. Pressed from 650M. Peeled out and was 5Ls behind the leader entering the home straight. Ran on but not threatening. |
6 | 12 | WHISKY POWER (CH291) | M W Leung | B/H | Hard ridden early to hold lead on fence. Maintained a 1L gap until headed 200M. Plugged on. |
7 | 11 | GRANDWAY FLYER (CK302) | W C Marwing | -- | Urged always but trapped 4-wide towards rear through to the home straight. Covered some ground thereafter to beat tired runners. |
8 | 2 | MERIDIAN PRIDE (CH057) | K C Leung | B/TT | Slow to begin and was shaken early. Sat 3-wide behind midfield passing 1000M. Improved well top of home straight and was only 1L behind leaders near 200M. Failed to follow through. |
9 | 3 | GRAND PROFIT (CK412) | W M Lai | XB/TT | Travelled wide and without cover at midfield. Got closer approaching the home straight but failed to turn up a notch passing 300M. Weakened 150M. |
10 | 10 | DIAMOND RAINBOW (CL079) | K L Chui | -- | Raced within 2Ls of the pace in a 2-wide position through to the home straight. Found nothing under pressure. |
