Horse Name | Jockey | Gear | Comment |
1 | 10 | MIRACULOUS (CE115) | F Coetzee | -- | Soon led on fence by 1L, skipped 2Ls clear at top of home straight, ridden to draw further clear, very easily. |
2 | 1 | SOUND OF SILENCE (CD136) | C W Wong | -- | Soon 1L off pace in 2nd out 2-wide, 2Ls down in 2nd taking final bend, absolutely no chance with winner but did enough for 2nd. |
3 | 2 | TRIUMPHANT GLORY (CB368) | D Whyte | B | Adopted the box-seat position within 2Ls of pace in 3rd at 900 M and similarly placed taking final turn, outpaced by runner-up and all out to hang on for 3rd. |
4 | 3 | MULTI-WIN SPIRIT (CG137) | M Odendaal | TT | 2-wide and worse than midfield about 5Ls off speed at 1000 M, 6Ls back in 10th taking final turn but ran on quite well late and nearly placed. |
5 | 4 | FAIRPLAY (CC258) | M Nunes | TT1 | Always close up better than midfield 2-wide and 3Ls or 4Ls off pace until home straight, one-paced in the finish but not overtaken by slower ones in behind. |
6 | 13 | DENDRANTHEMA LOVE (CD073) | H K Yim | CP/XB | Couldn't muster much early pace, 6Ls back in 12th at 1000 M, 8Ls back and 4-wide on straightening, finished off at same pace down centre of track. |
7 | 11 | SPY KING (CE205) | K T Yeung | V | Nicely placed 3-back on fence in 5th through to home turn, over 4Ls back in 5th and held at 200 M, plugged on at same tempo. |
8 | 8 | TIMBER CITY (CC031) | O Doleuze | B | Midfield mostly about 4Ls off speed, without cover and under pressure at 600 M, about 5Ls further back turning for home, found nothing off the bridle. |
9 | 5 | LUCKY CORDELIA (CD088) | S K Sit | -- | 4-back on fence about 4Ls off pace in midfield at 800 M, not the clearest passage turning into stretch about 5Ls back in midfield, faded steadily. |
10 | 12 | UNIVERSAL KOMISSAR (CE096) | E Saint-Martin | -- | Without cover (4-wide) in places in rear about 10Ls off the pace until the 600 M, never remotely dangerous. |
11 | 7 | SPARKLE (CB406) | G Mosse | V- | Soon in rear about 9Ls off pace, never got much closer and posed no threat. |
12 | 14 | SUPER (CD036) | Y T Cheng | B-/SR2/TT | Awkward break and worse than midfield early, hanging out without cover at halfway and struggling entering home straight, continue to hang over to stand's rail, poor run. |
13 | 9 | SUPER BONUS (CG067) | K L Chui | B | Slowly away but recovered to be 2Ls off pace in 4th at 800 M, struggling to maintain this position at 600 M, very weak in closing stages. |
