1 | 12 | DENDRANTHEMA LOVE (CD073) | S Dye | CP | Slid across from wide gate to 8Ls last at 1200 M, improved from rear on the circle, 6-wide (widest of all) in 10th into straight, quickened up well to lead at 150 M, driven out. |
2 | 3 | SABRE AND GOLD (CE179) | Y T Cheng | B | Away well, settled 3-back on fence in 5th about 3Ls off pace at 1100 M, going well 2Ls down in 4th on straightening, had every chance but outpaced by the winner. |
3 | 10 | DANSING FUN (CE202) | D Nikolic | B2 | Always well there, over 1L back in 2nd at 1200 M, led by a neck at top of home straight, headed about 150 M out, one-paced and lost out on 2nd final 50 M. |
4 | 7 | SPEED OF LIGHT (CC333) | H W Lai | TT | 4-wide no cover at 1300 M, 3-wide with cover down the back about 4Ls down in midfield, a little closer turning for home, plugged on at the one pace. |
5 | 1 | STAR PRODIGY (CD294) | C K Tong | P/TT | 2-wide in 7th about 4Ls off speed at 1200 M, same margin back in 9th turning for home, one-paced through closing stages. |
6 | 2 | DONGGUAN VICTORY (CB382) | C W Wong | -- | Crowded at start and ridden along early, on fence 7Ls back in 10th at 1200 M, 5Ls down in 11th at final bend, stayed on only fairly. |
7 | 4 | DOUBLE FANTASY (CG141) | A Delpech | B | Over-raced early on fence, 3-back about 4Ls off speed in midfield through to home straight, never looked like improving very much. |
8 | 6 | LA MERVEILLE (CC205) | M Nunes | B | In 6th about 3Ls off pace at 1200 M, closer turning for home, very one-paced and no excuses. |
9 | 9 | OH GREAT (CB288) | K T Yeung | B | Always towards rear, 6Ls back in 10th at 1000 M, no better off swinging for home, no impression. |
10 | 11 | FRAMES DEPOT (CG118) | W M Lai | B | Disputed early tempo out 3-wide without cover, still close up having had a tough trip taking home turn, gave ground 200 M out. |
11 | 5 | WINNING PATTERN (CG125) | G Mosse | -- | Wide early but led by 1L on fence at 1100 M, headed just before the home turn and petered out. |
12 | 8 | MOSHI MOSHI (CG255) | E Saint-Martin | TT | Caught wide without cover throughout, 3-wide back in 5th at 1200 M, 4-deep down backstretch in midfield about 4Ls off pace, retreating before the 200 M pole. |
