1 | 9 | DIVANO (J142) | Y L Chung | TT | Began well, tracked leaders 2-wide, quickened up strongly to lead 250M, continued on well late stages to record his first Class 1 victory. |
2 | 3 | PATCH OF THETA (H485) | H Bowman | XB | Jumped only fairly, soon recovered to chase leaders, pace fast in middle stages, ran home well final 400M but was always held by the winner which was running off a light weight. |
3 | 5 | TAJ DRAGON (H164) | Z Purton | -- | Settled down 2-wide in mid-division, chased eventual winner from 400M, fought hard to the line but was always held. |
4 | 4 | MUGEN (H338) | L Ferraris | -- | Taken across behind runners and improved to a midfield position on settling, responded fairly on straightening and was never going the pace to challenge first three. |
5 | 1 | BEAUTY JOY (E058) | B Avdulla | TT | Taken back from wide draw, given a waiting ride at the rear 8Ls off the pace, made some progress under top weight from 400M but never able to challenge first three. |
6 | 8 | MR ASCENDENCY (G227) | H Bentley | CP/TT | Reserved behind midfield 5Ls off the pace, kept on fairly final 400M. Never a winning hope. |
7 | 2 | INVINCIBLE SAGE (H301) | P N Wong | CP | Went forward, raced keenly when crossed by rival 1000M, switched to race outside leader setting fast pace middle stages, couldn't sustain run 250M, lay in under pressure and weakened. |
8 | 6 | RUBYLOT (H412) | K Teetan | CP | Dropped back to near last, bustled along 600M but responded only fairly. Never involved. (No Vet findings.) |
9 | 7 | DROMBEG BANNER (H117) | A Atzeni | -- | Went forward and crossed to the lead 1000M, pressed by rival from 800M setting fast pace, struggled to keep up from 300M, steadied 200M then weakened to last. (Jockey : disadvantaged by being pressured in the lead.) |
