Horse Name | Jockey | Gear | Comment |
1 | 7 | CHIU CHOW BROTHER (CA216) | S King | -- | Held up in midfield with cover. Shifted out into clear upon straightening, pushed out hands and heels to score smartly. |
2 | 6 | SOMLUCK (BS143) | S K Sit | -- | Waited with at rear. Asked for effort out wide from 700 M to be 5-wide forward of midfield entering straight. Hit front 200 M out but overhauled by the winner inside final 100 M. |
3 | 2 | MY CHIEF (BV044) | S Dye | -- | With tail to straightening. Ran on steadily from 300 M to claim distant 3rd closing stages, having to steady and shift out near 200 M. |
4 | 5 | DOLLARS AND SENSE (BT278) | D Whyte | BO- | From difficult gate steadily moved up to be just in front of midfield, always hanging in. Progress from 300 M while hanging in badly. No extra final 100 M. |
5 | 4 | INDUBITABLY BLISS (CA058) | F Coetzee | -- | Prominent, joined leaders at 1100 M then remained on hindquarters of leader from 800 M. Every chance 300 M to 200 M, one-paced then weakened final 100 M. (Abnormal breathing noise after race.) |
6 | 1 | HUNTING LAD (BP153) | D Dunn | B | Driven from wide barrier to be prominent, caught wide early stages. Inconvenienced near 200 M, gave ground steadily. |
7 | 9 | DIAMOND AND GOLD (BP100) | W C Marwing | -- | Outpaced at rear despite niggled along. Ran past beaten runners closing stages. |
8 | 11 | SPLENDID PATROL (BV066) | M W Leung | V | Began fairly, soon recovered to lead. Headed 350 M out, kept on same pace until dropping out 200 M out. (Abnormal breathing noise after race.) |
9 | 8 | DELIGHTFUL SPECIAL (BP147) | K C Tsang | B | Handy on rail, unable to quicken in straight, gave ground from 200 M. |
10 | 10 | GOLDEN AIR (BV105) | K S Yu | -- | Best away and led briefly, steadily dropped back to mid-division at 1100 M. Crowded near 800 M and dropped back further. Not a factor in straight. |
11 | 3 | SURPLUS (BT118) | E Saint-Martin | B | Around midfield to 400 M. Dropped out gradually thereafter. |
