Horse Name | Jockey | Gear | Comment |
1 | 9 | AMBITIOUS TREASURE (CJ173) | H W Lai | TT | Midfield 3-back the rails through to final bend within 3Ls or 4Ls of pace, quickened up to lead 100 M out, did enough to score. |
2 | 5 | FLYING COLOURS (CJ111) | K C Leung | CP | Nicely placed in 4th within 2Ls of the speed through to last corner, led over 200 M out but couldn't repel winner's late dash. |
3 | 8 | FOREST STAR (CJ167) | M Chadwick | TT | 4-wide no cover in rear at least 5Ls off pace before last turn, rider also dropped reins 150 M out, did well to place under the circumstances. |
4 | 2 | LUCKYME (CH012) | Y T Cheng | TT2 | 3-wide but with cover in 9th some 5Ls from the speed before last bend, finished off pretty well for 4th. |
5 | 4 | MY WAY (CJ203) | Z Purton | B | Bumped at start, 4-back the fence about 5Ls from lead at halfway, peeled out wider in home straight, recovered some fair late ground. |
6 | 12 | DIVINE KID (CK157) | W C Marwing | -- | Always around midfield, 4Ls adrift before last turn, kept on at the same pace. |
7 | 13 | SPLENDID SAILS (CG077) | C K Tong | B/SR | Bumped at start, never any better than midfield, 6Ls back in 10th at the 800 M, ran on past some spent rivals in the straight, nearest at finish. |
8 | 3 | WINBO (CJ085) | M L Yeung | -- | Rearward and over-racing a little when 3-wide but with cover some 7Ls behind at halfway, posed no genuine threat in the stretch. |
9 | 14 | SPICY FRUITY (CJ220) | C W Wong | B | One from rear about 7Ls down at the 800 M, still at the rear at the furlong pole, remained among the also-rans. |
10 | 1 | KARBRIDGE (CK251) | B Doyle | -- | Prominent but wide no cover initially, led by 1L out 2-wide at 800 M, headed before the furlong marker, wilted. |
11 | 6 | POWER RETURN (CK039) | B Prebble | -- | Wide no cover early on, 2Ls back in 3rd at the 800 M, 2nd turning for home, found zero under pressure, very disappointing favourite, blood in trachea. |
12 | 11 | PERPETUAL DELIGHT (CK200) | O Doleuze | TT1 | Slowest out, 8Ls last at the 800 M, remained in the rear bunch despite recovering marginal ground in the straight. |
13 | 10 | PERPETIEL (CK229) | J Lloyd | -- | Disputed early exchanges, eased back into box-seat at the 800 M, 2Ls back in 3rd off final bend, very flat in the finish after such a cushy passage. |
14 | 7 | ACE OF SPADES (CK265) | W M Lai | B | In 5th or so but 3-wide no cover at halfway on the circle, surrendered pretty tamely in the straight, eased down late on. |
