1 | 7 | THE REAL MCCOY (CK168) | C W Wong | -- | Led easily 2Ls in front at 900 M. Held a 1L advantage making home turn. Pulled clear in the straight for a convincing win. |
2 | 2 | MIGHTY SUN (CK058) | H W Lai | B1 | Amongst first to begin. Pushed early and obtained a forward spot outside the lead rounding the turn. Always held 2nd in the straight. Never posed serious threat to winner. |
3 | 6 | SPEED FIGHTER (CD355) | J Winks | B | Quickly into stride. Settled 2 to 3Ls back on rails. Pressed hard 500 M out. Never looked likely to catch the quinella pair but ran on for a minor placing with some comfort. |
4 | 11 | TATTENHALL DELIGHT (CG068) | B Doyle | B | Bumped at start. Took a spot worse than midfield 3-wide without cover. Improved on turn wide but couldn't follow through. Just held on for 4th by a narrow margin. |
5 | 8 | FULL BLESSINGS (CH238) | K L Chui | TT | Well enough away. Ridden to stay midfield on rails. Remained in similar position turning in. Made steady progress in the straight. Just missed out on 4th. |
6 | 10 | JADE DANCER (CE170) | M L Yeung | -- | Began nicely. Sat 2-wide 2Ls behind the speed at 600 M. Kept one-paced in the straight and weakened final stages. |
7 | 1 | GOLDEN BALL (CH128) | Z Purton | -- | Good jump. Moved to rails and urged to maintain a position worse than midfield at 800 M. Swung 4-wide turning for home. Made up some minor ground late. |
8 | 4 | TREASURABLE (CH017) | K C Leung | B2 | Bounced upon jumping and lost ground. Raced 2-wide 7 to 8Ls off the pace at 800 M. Just held ground in the straight. |
9 | 3 | MASTER GREEN (CJ104) | P H Lo | V | Began in line. Niggled along but failed to muster in the early stages. Settled 3-wide 7Ls back at 800 M. Shifted wider turning for home but failed to quicken in the straight. |
10 | 12 | KIMBERLEY (CJ295) | D Whyte | XB | Moderate jump and soon trailed field. Ran past a few beaten runners. |
11 | 5 | SHAXI BABY (CJ122) | M Nunes | -- | Jumped fairly. Driven to a midfield spot 2-wide at 800 M. Pressured 600 M out but soon faded in the straight. |
12 | 9 | ANIMATION (CJ035) | Y T Cheng | B | Always at rear. Struggled to keep up and made no impression in the straight. Never a factor. |
