Section 1
Placing | Horse No |
Horse Name | Jockey | Gear | Comment |
1 | 2 | DREAM TEAM (CK076) | C Soumillon | TT | Quickly into stride, always prominent tracking the leader, travelled noticeably well going into straight, burst to the front 300 M out, kept on strongly to win in fine style. |
2 | 6 | MERRY WAY (CJ242) | M Du Plessis | -- | Moderate start, taken to a handy position on the rail never far off the pace, briefly held up after straightening, into clear near 300 M, hung out in its run and was unable to close in on the eventual winner. |
3 | 11 | WIN A DOZEN (CH262) | K T Yeung | TT | Away quickly, overcame a wide draw to take up the running, had an uncontested lead throughout, could offer little resistance to the first two but kept on well inside 200 M to hold on for 3rd. |
4 | 1 | CHATER D'CAT (CK119) | W C Marwing | -- | Standard jump, maintained a midfield position 4Ls off the pace, travelled strongly into straight, posed no threat to the winner but made some good late impression inside the final 200 M. |
5 | 12 | SILVER BLAZE (CJ149) | B Prebble | -- | Began with rest, held up in mid-division 4Ls behind leader, tracked well to bend, lacked a strong finishing kick but ran on OK under pressure. |
6 | 7 | CHAMPION LAD (CH042) | M Chadwick | XB/TT | Ordinary jump, gradually moved forward to be tracking leaders approaching home turn, unable to cross and was caught wide without cover, responded only fairly when put under pressure 350 M out, gave ground last 100 M. |
7 | 4 | VIVA FIGHTER (CG307) | S Dye | PC-/B2/TT | Drifted back to race behind midfield 5 to 6Ls off the pace, enjoyed a ground-saving trip along the fence, had no clear run from 300 M to 200 M but stayed on OK once got into the clear. |
8 | 10 | WIN AGAIN (CD371) | M L Yeung | B | Awkwardly away and lost ground on jumping, shaken up to take closer order behind midfield, had 5Ls to make up approaching home straight, soon under pressure but could only keep on at the same pace to finishing line. |
9 | 5 | LASKER (CJ340) | O Doleuze | XB1 | Taken back on jumping, settled in the rear 7Ls off the pace under restraint, taken wide rounding the home turn, unable to pick up and could beat tired runners only. |
10 | 8 | MY WHISKY (CK071) | G Mosse | -- | Stumbled leaving the stalls, maintained a position better than midfield but was difficult to settle in early stages, had to be urged along on bend, found little in straight and faded out inside 200 M. |
11 | 3 | CAGA BOY (CG060) | H W Lai | -- | Jumped well, pressed on early to keep up with pace, settled in a 3-wide spot in mid-division, found little on straightening, weakened from 200 M. |
12 | 13 | QUALITY-QUALITY (CE250) | M W Leung | B | Eased to the rear after jumping, caught wide making the home turn, had plenty to do coming off the bend, didn't pick up under pressure. Never a factor. |
13 | 9 | EIGHT PLUS NINE (CH259) | Z Purton | B/XB1 | Slightly slow out, raced ungenerously towards the rear, unable to settle and had a hard run throughout, didn't find his stride in straight, dropped out from 250 M. (Jockey reported his horse showed dislike to the gear change.) |
