1 | 11 | LU YUE (CH278) | C W Wong | B | Pressed forward to lead and dictated the race with a steady tempo, all out from 300 M, edged left under pressure over the final 50 M but found the necessary to held on. |
2 | 8 | BLUE SKY (CJ289) | Z Purton | PC/H | Broke well and alongside leader early, restrained back in search of cover passing 1100 M, challenged strongly final 300 M, came close but couldn't reel in the winner. |
3 | 9 | NOBLE MAN (CC099) | W M Lai | -- | Tracked leader along the fence, always in touch, ran on gamely down the inside over the final 300 M, drifted out under pressure close home. |
4 | 1 | GREAT ACHIEVEMENT (CD250) | K C Leung | TT | Up with the early pace and was one out one back from the leader, all out inside 250 M, kept on but couldn't quite get to the winner, checked 100 M from home. |
5 | 5 | AMBITIOUS GENERAL (CJ066) | W Pike | XB | Patiently held up in last, 7Ls behind going into the final turn, taken wide to challenge in straight, stayed on relentlessly from over 200 M out, never nearer. |
6 | 6 | QUICK TOUCH (CJ196) | D Whyte | TT | Restrained to a 2-wide position towards the back, had 5Ls to make up entering the straight, into clear 300 M and progressed steadily to 50 M, drifted in over the final stages. |
7 | 3 | INTERCHINA STAR (CJ226) | M L Yeung | TT | Unable to shift in from a wide barrier and was forced wide and without cover in the chasing pack throughout, found disappointingly little when asked in straight, weakened close home. |
8 | 4 | SILVER SUN (CE126) | O Doleuze | -- | Restrained after the start and was shuffled back to midfield gradually, under serious pressure passing 400 M and kept on at the one pace. (Jockey questioned re riding position.) |
9 | 10 | REAL SPECIAL (CH320) | G Cheyne | -- | Dropped back to 2nd last about 5Ls behind leader, pressed on inside 350 M but unable to quicken from off the pace. No impression. |
10 | 2 | WATCH WHAT HAPPENS (CH145) | W C Marwing | -- | Parked 3-wide in midfield, proved difficult to settle in early and middle stages, no response inside 350 M, soon out of contention. |
11 | 7 | DORDENMA (CE333) | B Prebble | -- | Lost ground at the start, along the fence never better than midfield, under pressure inside 400 M, soon eased on straightening. (Jockey questioned.) |
