Horse Name | Jockey | Gear | Comment |
1 | 6 | NOBLE CONQUEROR (CG169) | B Prebble | B1 | Slow to begin, worse than midfield no better than 4Ls off pace until home turn, picked up very well to lead 50 M out despite hanging in, nice win. |
2 | 5 | GOLDEN STRIDE (CA343) | H W Lai | B | Crossed to fence to lead marginally 800 M out, 1L clear taking home turn and skipped 2Ls in front at 200 M, caught 50 M out by winner and hung on for 2nd. |
3 | 10 | WISDOM EXPRESS (CB377) | K T Yeung | B | 3-back on fence in midfield about 3Ls off pace until straightening for the line, stayed on reasonably for a place but never looked like winning. |
4 | 1 | DRAGON AND GOLD (CD244) | D Whyte | -- | Best away and soon settled into box-seat position on fence 2Ls off pace, niggled along turning into home straight, had every possible chance to at least place but failed. |
5 | 11 | SPY KING (CE205) | Y T Cheng | CP | 2-wide in midfield early on, slipped further back to 5Ls down in 9th until home turn, made some minor late ground but never dangerous. |
6 | 3 | KINGSTON WINNER (CC024) | K S Yu | B | Close up early on within 2Ls off pace , checked 600 M out and left 3-wide no cover at 500 M, hampered turning for home, one-paced in the finish. |
7 | 7 | TATTENHALL DELIGHT (CG068) | H K Yim | -- | Fractious in gates, slowest to start, about 5Ls or 6Ls last or one from last until home turn, stayed on only fairly along the fence in the stretch. |
8 | 9 | GOOD TO GREAT (CD278) | F Coetzee | -- | 3-wide with cover in midfield or so and no closer than 3Ls to the lead down the back, pushed wider and under pressure at 500 M, 4-wide into home straight, no gears. |
9 | 4 | FUNTRAP (CE243) | G Schofield | B | Right on pace but trapped 5-wide no cover from bad draw early, pressed on to dispute the front out 2-wide at 600 M, over 1L down in 2nd at home turn, nothing left in homestretch. |
10 | 8 | HEALTHY FRUITS (CC193) | D Dunn | TT | 3-wide with cover early in front rank, 2-wide and about 3Ls down in 4th taking final bend, found nothing off the bridle. |
11 | 2 | PROFIT HILL (CE274) | K L Chui | CP | Slow to begin, much too keen early and threw head about with 700 M to go when about 4Ls in rear group, offered nothing in homestretch. |
12 | 12 | SUPERB (CE093) | C Munce | -- | 3-wide with cover in rear early on, always in rear group no closer than 5Ls off pace from 800 M to home turn, weakened thereafter. |
