Horse Name | Jockey | Gear | Comment |
1 | 8 | GRAND SUPREME (CG229) | D Whyte | -- | Always travelled well and prominently near grandstand fence, eased to the front 200 M out, hand-ridden clear, nice debut. |
2 | 4 | FORTE (CB351) | R Fradd | -- | In firing line within 2Ls of the speed until the 200 M, no chance with winner but best of the rest for 2nd. |
3 | 9 | HARVEY MUDD (CC295) | K W Tsui | TT | Crowded at start and outpaced early on towards rear, still 5Ls behind in 10th or so at the 400 M, ran on fairly well late to nick 3rd on the line. |
4 | 10 | NEW TRIUMPH (CG105) | O Doleuze | CP1 | Never worse than midfield between 2Ls and 3Ls off the speed, outpaced but still every chance of 3rd place inside final 50 M but lost out on the line. |
5 | 6 | TOP STITCH (CE273) | D Dunn | TT | Led early on stands' rail by 1L, hard pressed when grabbed by winner at the 200 M, emptied out disappointingly late. |
6 | 5 | PASSION (CE252) | F Coetzee | CP1/TT1 | Under pressure in rear early on, always held by at least 5Ls and thoroughly outpaced. |
7 | 3 | ALWAYS HAPPY (CE085) | H W Lai | TT1 | 3Ls off pace hugging far rail in midfield until halfway, all out to get within 2Ls of the pace at the 300 M, no extra. |
8 | 2 | EVER MORE (CB130) | E Saint-Martin | B/TT | Shifted out from low gate towards centre of track, 2Ls off speed in midfield at the 400 M, one-paced. |
9 | 1 | OKEYDOKEY (CD190) | W C Marwing | B | 3Ls off pace on far side in midfield until halfway, all out to get within 2Ls of the pace at the 300 M, no extra and tired late. |
10 | 14 | LIVERPOOLTHEGREAT (CG088) | S Dye | -- | Hampered at start, 5Ls last early on, 8Ls last at the 500 M, plugged on past a few tired rivals late on. |
11 | 7 | WINE WIN (CG018) | G Mosse | B | Close enough if good enough on stands' fence, 1L down in 2nd at 700 M, failed to quicken up at 400 M and retreated steadily despite strong pressure. (See Racing Incidents.) |
12 | 12 | PRIME MOVER (CG028) | G Schofield | B/TT | Never landed a blow, towards rear about 5Ls off the leader at halfway, no danger. |
13 | 13 | GREEN IDEAL (CG013) | H K Yim | -- | Always towards rear in centre of track, 7Ls off the pace at 500 M, no competition. |
14 | 11 | CASH BABY (CD220) | Y T Cheng | BO-/PC1/H1 | Within 2Ls of the early pace, under pressure to hold this position at halfway, dropped out poorly. |
