1 | 10 | MIRACULOUS (CE115) | F Coetzee | -- | Tracked leader in 2nd just 1L from the speed until home turn, led over 300 M out but never got much more than a neck clear and all out to hang on from strong finishing 2nd. |
2 | 9 | SOUTH BREEZE (CG241) | G Mosse | -- | Worse than midfield about 5Ls off pace with cover at halfway, only marginally closer turning for home, clear over 200 M and ran on strongly late only post came too soon. |
3 | 14 | NEW COMMAND (CG135) | C W Wong | B | Led on fence at the 1400 M, always about 1L clear until home turn, headed over 300 M out but didn't fade out and only lost out on 2nd in final strides. |
4 | 3 | SAFETY FIRST (CG161) | A Starke | B/H | 3-wide with cover when over 4Ls worse than midfield down the back, not much closer turning for home, dug in well late on to be nearest at the finish. |
5 | 7 | CLASSIC KING (CD256) | O Doleuze | B/TT | With cover in mid-division about 4Ls off pace until halfway, niggled along to take closer order at 600 M, stayed on dourly in the finish, never nearer. |
6 | 8 | SINOSPIEL (CG003) | K L Chui | B | Had the box seat run at 1000 M about 2Ls off pace on fence in 4th, same turning for home, always held by leading pair and one-paced closing stages. |
7 | 4 | SUPER GOAL MASTER (CG220) | S Dye | TT | Dropped out about 6Ls off pace in rear through to final bend, stayed on only fairly down centre of the track while hanging in. |
8 | 12 | EVER KING (CE147) | M W Leung | V/TT | Slowly away, over-raced in places early on when 4-back on fence in midfield, stayed on at the same pace but still nearest at finish. |
9 | 13 | FANTASTIC WIN (CB188) | C K Tong | B | In rear bunch at least 6Ls off pace until home straight, short of room at 100 M when finishing off well not fully tested yet. |
10 | 5 | HAPPY FIT (CH084) | B Prebble | XB/TT | Slowly away, keen early on, 3-back on fence and 3Ls off speed at halfway, driven along to try and improve at the 600 M, always held by those in front. |
11 | 1 | ABLE STANDARD (CG043) | D Whyte | B/TT | Keen but prominent early on, no worse than 2Ls off pace with cover until final turn, 2Ls down in 3rd at the 200 M, weakened late on. |
12 | 11 | WINNING PATTERN (CG125) | H W Lai | CP-/XB- | Caught very wide (5-wide no cover) down the back straight in midfield, still just 3Ls down turning for home but beaten 200 M out. |
13 | 6 | CAPABILITY (CE094) | Y T Cheng | B/TT | Never travelled well, slowly away and soon 8Ls last in rear, under pressure trying to improve off final turn, finished off tamely down centre of track. |
14 | 2 | FUJIAN PRINCE (CE006) | K T Yeung | SR/TT | Away well and pressed forward to race within 1L of the speed out but 3-wide no cover, 2Ls down in 5th and tiring off final turn, soon beaten. |
