Horse Name | Jockey | Gear | Comment |
1 | 6 | GONNA RUN (T094) | C Y Ho | TT | In rear group early stages, moved closer to pace down the back straight, travelled strongly over the home bend, quickened up well to lead nearing 50M, comfortably. |
2 | 7 | ISHVARA (S015) | H N Wong | B/TT | Went forward, steadied the race tempo once in the lead, pressed by rivals nearing 600M, kept on well under pressure, headed 50M and was always doing enough to hold 2nd. |
3 | 5 | FANTASTIC KAKA (P363) | O Doleuze | H | From draw 1 obtained a trailing position just off the pace, saved ground and travelled well into straight, kept up the chase over final 300M, not pace of winner late stages. |
4 | 9 | SUPEROI (T017) | G Lerena | -- | Slow to begin, towards the rear early, switched wide 850M and strolled to join leaders 4-wide, kept on steadily entering straight, one pace final 150M. |
5 | 2 | LITTLE DRAGON (S264) | K K Chiong | -- | Caught wide early stages, no cover from 1200M and strolled forward to join leader, battled on entering straight, gave way to pursuers 100M out. |
6 | 4 | WINNING LEADER (N268) | K Teetan | B | Slow to begin, taken back from wide barrier, raced as the back-marker for much of the way, closed off fairly down the inside on straightening, never a serious threat. |
7 | 8 | PIKACHU (S298) | Z Purton | -- | In midfield early stages, shuffled back to rear down the back straight, hampered by beaten rival home turn, stayed on fairly over final 300M, not reached leaders. |
8 | 10 | DASHING KING (T297) | B Prebble | B | Held up in midfield 3-4Ls off the pace, proved very difficult to settle when race tempo slackened 900M, given reminders passing 500M, took time to get going, did best work final 200M. |
9 | 1 | INVINCIBLE DRAGON (V166) | N Callan | H | Never far off from leaders, shifted out to 3-wide 800M when pace slackened, gave limited response under pressure, out of contention 200M. (No Vet findings) |
10 | 11 | APPROVE (N299) | K C Ng | B/TT | Prominent, caught 3-wide until 1100M, shuffled back a bit entering home turn, struggled to keep up and gave way from 500M. |
11 | 12 | CARTOON FAY FAY (N014) | J Moreira | -- | Towards the rear early stages, strode forward along the 3-path when pace slackened middle stages, with leaders making home turn but had little left entering straight, soon beaten and eased. |
12 | 3 | TURF SPRINT (T396) | N Rawiller | H | Blundered at the start, in mid-division, proved difficult to settle especially middle stages when race tempo slackened, eased early straight. (Jockey : not able to see out the distance) |
