1 | 11 | LUCKY MONEY STAR (CH273) | C W Wong | CP-/TT- | 1L back in 2nd out 2-wide at 1200 M and same turning in under pressure, led narrowly 200 M out, kept on very gamely to just scrape in. (Questioned for improved performance.) |
2 | 7 | NASA PEARL (CC068) | Z Purton | P2 | One from rear about 9Ls down at 1000 M, 6Ls back into straight, finished very strongly out wide, reached the line about two strides too soon for the win. |
3 | 3 | THREE CLUBS (CG149) | D Beadman | -- | 7Ls back in 10th at 1200 M, 5Ls back in mid-division off last turn, loomed upsides leaders seeming the winner at 200 M, couldn't go on with it and just held. |
4 | 2 | WADADELIGHT (CC340) | F Coetzee | B | 3Ls off pace on fence in 5th at 1200 M, 2Ls down in 4th entering home straight, had a chance to place but always marginally held from the frame. |
5 | 12 | ALICE TOO (CG309) | M Nunes | B/XB/TT | Led on fence by 1L at 1200 M, same margin clear off the last bend, headed just inside the final 200 M and run out of the money final 100 M. |
6 | 8 | SWEET BABY (CG294) | M Du Plessis | B-/P1 | 2Ls behind leader in 3rd on fence until the home straight, checked when without room on the inner 100 M out, failed to recover. |
7 | 4 | WONDERFUL BLESSING (CE198) | Y T Cheng | B/TT | 5Ls back in 6th on the rails at 1000 M, 4Ls down in 5th off last bend, one-paced thereafter. |
8 | 5 | GOLDEN BALL (CH128) | K T Yeung | B-/PC2 | 3-wide no cover throughout, pressed on from rearward position to be 3Ls back in midfield at 800 M, under pressure turning in, faded steadily. (Tactic questioned.) |
9 | 10 | JOY TRUMPS (CD242) | W M Lai | B/TT | 10Ls last at 1000 M, one from rear about 8Ls down making last bend, made no impact. |
10 | 14 | PURE ALPHA (CH008) | M W Leung | CP/XB | Clearly slowest away, 6Ls back on the rails in 8th at 1000 M and same into the stretch, stride soon shortened. |
11 | 9 | CHEERFUL HEART (CC206) | G Mosse | B | 3-wide with cover when 6Ls off pace around midfield until home straight, found nothing off the bit and beaten 300 M out. |
12 | 1 | MAGIC TOUCH (CB394) | H W Lai | P | No Comments on Running information for this horse. |
13 | 13 | HAPPY ENERGY (CH033) | K L Chui | B | 3Ls back in 5th at 1200 M when 3-wide no cover despite exiting gate 5, back-pedalling before the home straight, unacceptable performance. |
14 | 6 | KING HESPERUS (CE151) | G Boss | B/TT | Never travelling well, 9Ls back in 12th at 1000 M, hard ridden from halfway and dropped back to last off final bend, eased down, to trial. (Questioned for poor performance.) |
