Horse Name | Jockey | Gear | Comment |
1 | 10 | BRILLIANT CHAPTER (CJ100) | D Whyte | -- | Even break, settled patiently towards the rear 5Ls behind leader, taken wide on straightening, made ground in fine style under hands and heels riding, drew clear inside 200 M to win with real authority. |
2 | 2 | ONE WORLD (CH133) | D Beadman | H/TT | Jumped well, drifted back to a position behind midfield 4Ls back, switched to outside on straightening, took time to muster but finished off very well inside 200 M. The winner was however too strong. |
3 | 8 | ROYAL PERICLES (CH050) | W M Lai | B/XB | Standard jump, ridden to maintain a midfield position 2Ls off the pace, responded well under pressure and was just outran by the 2nd over the concluding stages. |
4 | 7 | ISLAND SUPER (CH297) | H W Lai | -- | Restrained from gate, ended up in rear 7Ls away, used little in running, made a strong dash down the outside of track to finish a non-threatening 4th. |
5 | 4 | FLEET COMMAND (CK077) | Z Purton | -- | Away in line, assumed a spot in mid-division racing 2 deep, difficult to settle in middle stages, held up on straightening and unable to imporve, made some progress once into clear 150 M out. |
6 | 13 | STREET CAT (CK037) | C K Tong | -- | Bounced out, positioned just behind leaders, right there on turning, didn't find the extra gear required but rallied well final 200 M. |
7 | 11 | DOUBLE LUCK (CH239) | G Mosse | -- | Pushed forward from the outside barrier, close enough in 3rd but raced wide without cover, ridden 300 M out and responded OK, but gradually weakened inside 200 M. |
8 | 9 | DEFERENTIAL (CH328) | O Doleuze | PC1/TT | Lacked early speed, ridden along the rail to be prominent behind leaders, briefly held up on straightening, squeezed through a gap inside 200 M, ran on but found no extra. |
9 | 6 | FLORAL EL CUENTO (CJ241) | F Coetzee | TT | Dropped back to the rear after start, trailed leader by more than 8Ls, had much to do on straightening, made some late progress but set too great a task. |
10 | 14 | BOOMING CITY (CE325) | Y T Cheng | B/TT | Out with first few, rolled forward to lead and shaded inside horse throughout, kept on effort early in straight but fizzled out inside 150 M. |
11 | 3 | ISLAND SPEED (CG202) | C W Wong | B/TT | Ordinary jump, ridden to maintain a midfield position, ran wide and without cover on turning, under pressure coming out of the bend, unable to quicken up and ran home very one-paced. |
12 | 12 | MEDIC FORTUNE (CK057) | M Du Plessis | -- | Standard break, restrained to race in the rear 5Ls off the pace, ran a shade too keen in middle stages, met traffic inside 300 M and never able to obtain clear running. Not fully tested. |
13 | 1 | NORMAN INVADER (CJ231) | K L Chui | TT | Slow into stride, urged to stay closer in mid-division, had every chance on straightening but didn't pick up, weakened inside 200 M. |
14 | 5 | BUNDLE O' GOLD (CJ311) | E Saint-Martin | XB | Began well, gradually moved up along the rail to share lead under a steady tempo, kicked on inside 300 M but found nothing under pressure, dropped off 100 M out. |
