1 | 4 | SPLENDID SAILS (CG077) | B Prebble | B/SR | Landed on the back of the speed, 3 deep with cover. Rolled out on straightening and hit the final furlong strongly to take the lead and clinch victory well before the line. |
2 | 2 | SILLY BOY (CC094) | K T Yeung | B/TT | Was crowded for room at the start and then despite being ridden along failed to muster speed and settled near the rear on the fence. Ran on smartly through the field and closed off well. |
3 | 9 | MAJIN BUU (CC334) | Y T Cheng | V | Parked just behind the pace setters 2 off with cover. Struck the lead near the 400 M and was still there at the furlong, but was found wanting over the concluding stages. |
4 | 6 | DIAGHILEV (CH241) | E Saint-Martin | B/TT | Settled 2 wide with cover midfield. Kept to the inside in the straight and had every chance. |
5 | 8 | NOBLE ZOOM (CC298) | G Mosse | V | Raced close to midfield. 3-4 wide with cover. Stuck to task gamely in the run home. |
6 | 10 | DOUBLE FANTASY (CG141) | W M Lai | B | Slow into stride and travelled near the rear, 2 deep with cover. Overraced near the 800 M and ran out abruptly covering additional ground. Made some late headway in the straight. |
7 | 7 | TELECOM EMPEROR (CH137) | M Du Plessis | B/TT | Settled 3 back along the fence. Plugged away in the straight and had no excuses. |
8 | 3 | BLUE SAINT (CJ080) | H W Lai | B-/P1 | Raced outside the leader and was gradually overhauled near the 400 M. |
9 | 5 | DASHING WINNER (CA018) | D Whyte | SR/CO | No Comments on Running information for this horse. |
10 | 11 | CAPABEL (CD195) | C K Tong | -- | Settled in last position, passed a couple of very tired runners over the final stages. |
11 | 12 | WINNING CHAMP (CE233) | C W Wong | -- | Began awkwardly then was ridden along to go forward but was posted wide for most of the trip without cover alongside the leading division. Commenced to give ground after the 500 M. |
12 | 1 | FIRST DEGREE (CH132) | O Doleuze | B/TT1 | Showed good early speed to settle in the lead along the fence. Was challenged for the majority of the middle stages and faded quickly after turning for home. |
