Horse Name | Jockey | Gear | Comment |
1 | 10 | JUST GOOD (CL133) | G Mosse | H | Slow to begin, settling close to midfield on the paint. Made good progress on the inside after the 600m and responded well to claim the prize close to the line. |
2 | 2 | FLYING KEEPER (M191) | Z Purton | TT | Crowded early, settling towards the tail of the field on the fence with cover. Steadily improved after the 600m, chased gamely down the running. |
3 | 9 | YOUNG SUPREME (CL074) | M L Yeung | P | Settled in 2nd position, 1 off no cover. Rolled forward and assumed the lead on the fence after the 600m. Shot clear early in the straight, was collard over the final 100m. |
4 | 5 | TELECOM TOP STAR (CL276) | R Fourie | B | Travelled in last position close to the fence, had cover. Kept finding the line despite hanging in and proving difficult to ride in the run home. |
5 | 8 | TAKE THE RAP (CL369) | D Whyte | CP/TT | Settled midfield 1 off the fence with cover. Kept plugging away in the home straight without threatening. |
6 | 4 | GOOD SMILE (CK360) | H W Lai | -- | Led early then was headed after the 600m and box seated thereafter on the rails. Faded over the final 150m. |
7 | 3 | PERFECT JOY (M182) | T Angland | B2/TT | Went back from a wide gate and raced at the rear, 3 deep with cover. Was dour in the final stretch. |
8 | 1 | ENJOY THE FUN (M030) | T Berry | SR/TT | Travelled wide early, then camped midfield, 3 deep with cover. Never quickened in the straight, and whacked away at the same speed. |
9 | 7 | DIAMOND ANGEL (M212) | O Doleuze | B/H/TT | Settled worse than midfield, 3 deep with cover. Failed to close off. |
10 | 6 | FORTUNE TERRITORY (N272) | C Y Ho | B/TT | Began awkwardly then failed to muster speed settling back in the field, 1 off with cover. Made no impression in the final stretch. |
11 | 11 | NAMJONG TURBO (N250) | K C Leung | B/SR | Coursed wide in the early stages, on the speed. Managed to slot in and race 1 off near the 600m, without cover, in 3rd position. Never a factor. |
12 | 12 | CRIMSON (N025) | T H So | B-/TT | Settled handy in the run, 2 deep with cover. Struggled in the home straight. |
