1 | 10 | FUNNY FORTUNE (P227) | T H So | B | Began moderately, gradually picked up on rails to hold one back position in 3rd on rails, held similar into straight, fought on steadily to gain upper hand final stages. |
2 | 6 | ORACLE (N115) | J Moreira | XB/TT | Worked his way across from the widest gate of 11, settled just off the pace 2 wide from around first bend, fought on under pressure but unable to draw level throughout home straight. |
3 | 8 | CHOICE EXCHEQUER (P088) | C Schofield | XB/TT | Soon took up running on rails from a wide gate attempting to make all, led until finding no extra inside final 200 metres and swamped. |
4 | 2 | MR VANILLA (S209) | N Callan | B | Jumped fairly from a wide-ish gate, settled towards the rear, commenced move coming onto home bend circling the field to reach 3L 4th home turn, fought on steadily in straight without threatening first 3. |
5 | 4 | SOUTHCHINA COMMAND (S290) | K K Chiong | V | Jumped well, settled in midfield one off the rails, left flat-footed on home bend, but made up some late ground closing stages. (Jockey warned) |
6 | 1 | MI SAVVY BOY (S381) | K Teetan | B/E | Slightly slow out before tightened, behind early stages, apparently improved positions when pace slackened around first bend, yielded ground under pressure from home bend. |
7 | 11 | DRAGON GLORY (P130) | G Mosse | B/TT | In similar position in midfield on rails throughout, ran home one-paced. (Mucus in trachea) |
8 | 7 | HIGH SPEED METRO (P293) | M Chadwick | XB | Taken back to race in rear, similar turning for home, kept on steadily without quickening. |
9 | 3 | PLENTY OF SPEED (P401) | N Rawiller | B | Broke well, settled one-out-one-back early before shuffling backward to 2L 5th on 1000 metre bend, unbalanced and lost position approaching home turn, never recovered. |
10 | 9 | ENDLESS LOVE (T035) | Y T Cheng | H | Settled wide in last few, never a danger. |
11 | 12 | CASA JUNIOR (M366) | K C Ng | CP | Moderate start from a wide gate, travelled 3 wide without cover in prominent position first bend, remained racing keenly without cover far side, weakened steadily after straightening. (Tactic questioned) |
