Placing | Horse No |
Horse Name | Jockey | Gear | Comment |
1 | 5 | HAPPY KID (CC326) | B Prebble | SR | Made all, always about 1L clear until 500 M, shot 2Ls clear off final bend, in command thereafter. |
2 | 8 | AURELIAN (CC025) | H W Lai | B | Run of the race on fence from 2nd to 4th about 2Ls off pace until home turn, never looked like catching the winner. |
3 | 9 | KING OF SPADES (CC056) | W M Lai | B | Slowly away, on fence about 6Ls off pace towards rear from 1000 M to home turn, made some good late progress on fence to take 3rd close home. |
4 | 7 | LIVERBIRD (CE055) | S Dye | -- | On fence 4Ls behind lead in 6th at 1100 M, same margin behind on straightening, plugged on at the same pace. |
5 | 12 | MILLION SUCCESS (CE158) | G Schofield | B | 2-wide and 3Ls behind in 5th at 1000 M, same taking home turn, failed to make much impression. |
6 | 11 | FIRST KNIGHT (CB357) | P H Lo | B | 2-wide worse than midfield about 6Ls off pace until final bend, made a little ground without threatening. |
7 | 10 | WATCHMAN (CB327) | H K Yim | B/SR | Always struggling in rear at least 7Ls off pace from 1000 M to home turn, made some minor late ground. |
8 | 1 | MASTERY (CC176) | M Rodd | B2/TT | Niggled along in rear early at least 7Ls off pace, no better off entering stretch, nearest at finish. |
9 | 4 | CHINOOK (CC108) | A Delpech | -- | 6Ls off pace and 2-wide in 7th at 1100 M, 5Ls down entering straight, one-paced and weakened. |
10 | 6 | GLORIOUS RHYTHM (CC163) | O Doleuze | V | Switched from widest gate to fence on exiting, 5Ls off speed in 8th or so through to final bend, lacked gears. |
11 | 3 | HAPPY CRUSADER (CE080) | D Whyte | SR/TT | Over-raced early when 2-wide and 1L off pace in 2nd at 1100 M, under pressure to lie up 500 M out, very weak in homestretch. (Mucus in trachea.) |
12 | 2 | SUNNY DESERT (CB346) | E Saint-Martin | B/SR | 3-wide no cover and 2Ls off pace in 3rd at 1100 M, without cover until 500 M out, faded before home turn, dropped out. |
