1 | 2 | NICKU (CK389) | D Whyte | TT | Parked midfield, 1 off the fence with cover. Peeled out turning for home & wound up nicely in the straight to clinch the race in the shadows of the post. |
2 | 6 | KINGSTON ELITE (CL274) | W M Lai | -- | Raced in 4th position, 2 wide with cover. Hit the front near the 200m and looked the likely winner before being mowed down in the run to the line. |
3 | 11 | MEGA POSH (M251) | M Chadwick | B/TT | Led early on the fence before box seating midrace. Had every possible chance, came up flat over the concluding stages. |
4 | 3 | O'REILLY MAGIC (CJ134) | T Angland | B-/PC1/TT | Parked worse than midfield on the rails with cover. Worked home soundly in the straight to make the frame. |
5 | 4 | LUCKY CHEVALIER (M113) | T Berry | SR/TT | Held the fence in about 5th position with cover. Maintained the same speed down the running. |
6 | 8 | LUCKY ARMY (CL230) | C Y Lui | H/TT | Raced in last position for the major part of the race on the rails with cover. Swung wide on the home turn, finished off ok late. |
7 | 9 | SPICY SIAM (N090) | J Moreira | B/TT | Travelled back in the field, close to the rail with cover. Shifted out to improve passing the 800m, racing 3-4 deep with cover. Passed tiring runners in the final stretch. |
8 | 10 | ABLE DRAGON (CJ308) | H W Lai | V | Camped midfield the paint, had cover. Plugged away one paced in the run home. |
9 | 5 | DYNAMIC CROSS (CL426) | K C Ng | B | Raced a little keenly in the early stages, travelling on the speed, 1 off no cover. Faded after the furlong. |
10 | 12 | HAPPY WISDOM (N034) | C W Wong | B/TT | Raced with the backmakers, 3 deep with cover. Struggled in the home stretch. |
11 | 1 | GOOD TIMES ROLL (P033) | Z Purton | TT | Travelled prominently early but was unable to find cover when caught wide. Was allowed to stride forward near 1200m & took up the lead, racing on the fence after the 800m. Was a gassed in the home straight. |
12 | 7 | GOLD TARTINI (N070) | T H So | CP1 | For the majority of the race was posted 3- wide no cover, ahead of midfield. Never likely. |
