1 | 10 | JOLLY WONGCHOY (CH076) | M Chadwick | TT | Jumped fastest, easily ran up to lead, responded well when asked for efforts at the top of home straight, kept on well, just withheld the challenger. |
2 | 11 | BLEDISLOE (CK073) | W C Marwing | B/TT | Jumped only fairly, pushed to occupy the box-seat just behind the leader, quickened well to chase the winner in home straight, narrowly beaten. |
3 | 9 | HOME WITH GLORY (CL171) | O Doleuze | CP-/B1 | Slow to begin, niggled along to catch up about 6Ls off the pace on rails, saved ground on inside turning for home, finished off strongly but blocked final 100 M, not fully tested. |
4 | 8 | ABLE DRAGON (CJ308) | M L Yeung | B/TT | Out in line, lacked early speed, sat three from the rear 5Ls off the speed, dashed well in the home straight, finished off soundly for 4th. |
5 | 3 | AMITYSHIP (CK023) | B Prebble | B/TT | Bumped after the start, pushed early and soon settled 2Ls behind pace, caught 3-wide without cover, ran up to join the lead in the middle stages, could not find extra final 200 M. |
6 | 2 | CLASSA (CK267) | H W Lai | B | Jumped well, urged along to hold a fence position 4Ls in midfield, lacked a kick when asked for efforts in home straight, flattened at 100 M. |
7 | 5 | HARRY HARRY (CD019) | Z Purton | XB | Broke well, settled cosily 3Ls off pace on rails, only gave limited response when placed under pressure in the home straight. |
8 | 1 | RECORD HIGH (CK202) | Y T Cheng | SR | Broken well, urged along to occupy the one out one back spot, weakened at the top of home straight, soon faded. |
9 | 7 | WARM EMBRACES (CJ162) | D Whyte | B- | Out in line, settled in a one-off position 4Ls behind leader, shifted wider in search of clear run at the top of home straight, failed to make up any ground. |
10 | 6 | MEDIC FORTUNE (CK057) | K C Leung | B/TT | Bumped after start, taken back from the widest barrier, travelled rearward throughout the trip, found nothing under pressure, never a factor. |
11 | 4 | STEEL NERVES (CG320) | M W Leung | -- | Began fairly, travelled wide without cover in the mid-division, no progress throughout, never closer. |
12 | 12 | THISTLE SPIRIT (CK281) | J Lloyd | B | Awkwardly started, always at rear, finished tailed out. |
