1 | 8 | LUCKY HERO (CH135) | M Nunes | -- | Away nicely, lead them easily, controlled the race from the outset, had an easy time to bend, held a 1 length break turning in, put foot down and kept a decent break for length of straight to score a comfortable win. |
2 | 10 | SUPER GENKI (CH195) | K L Chui | TT | First to hit ground, raced more prominently and relaxed appreciably, had 1 out 1 back sweet seat in mid-section, 2Ls down turning, switched out and stuck to task gamely to take plenty of ground off winner despite being well held. |
3 | 9 | MAGIC KING (CH182) | D Whyte | SR1 | Moderate beginning, recovered to hold leaders back, had easy time on rails 1 to 2Ls back, tracked nicely to bend, couldn't sprint with more experienced rivals but kept on soundly for a clear 3rd. Useful debut. |
4 | 2 | BULLISH WIN (CH197) | G Mosse | TT | Away better than most, ended up in running line in 2 wide line 4Ls back, over-raced a touch in mid-section, came to middle holding 5th off turn, steadily made ground in straight without threatening to make frame. |
5 | 5 | AMAZING CHOISIR (CH189) | D Nikolic | -- | Began in line, rushed forward from a wide alley to camp outside the leader, a shade keen in mid-section, right there 1L down on turn, condition gave out at 200 M and weakened late. Better for run. |
6 | 1 | SHANGDONG GENERAL (CH077) | B Prebble | -- | Moderate jump out, planted in midfield 2 wide 5Ls back from a wide alley, back in 7th on bend and tracked evenly turning, kept to task but never looked a threat making minor ground in stretch. |
7 | 3 | MASTER MASTER (CH144) | F Coetzee | -- | Out with them, taken to rails and ended up 3 back on the fence, had a quiet trip 3 to 4Ls back, saved ground to bend, didn't produce a dash in straight and just struggled at same speed last 300 M. |
8 | 12 | TELECOM OWNER (CH149) | M W Leung | SR1/TT1 | Even jumpout, didn't have early pace, raced behind midfield 7 to 8Ls back, travelled unkindly in mid-section and came 3 wide on circle, well back on bend, didn't lose ground in straight but never likely to figure. |
9 | 6 | ENERGETIC BOY (CH153) | K T Yeung | -- | Bounced out but lacked the dash to hold a spot, shared rear on rails 8Ls off leaders, always well back and not asked until turning in, passed a few tired ones in straight but still beaten a long way. |
10 | 4 | MEGA BULLET (CH192) | S Dye | -- | Reasonable beginning, secured a spot off midfield on rails 7Ls from lead, kept to fence on bend, had job to do on turning, found little when placed under pressure and plodded to line. |
11 | 11 | TALE OF FRIENDSHIP (CH184) | Y T Cheng | -- | Awkwardly away, settled in rear division, shared rear of bunch 2 wide 8Ls back on circle, appeared green and inexperienced running about turning in, didn't produce any sprint in run home just battling to the line. |
12 | 7 | HOT VINTAGE (CH162) | S K Sit | B1/TT1 | Slowly away, couldn't keep up from the outset, 15Ls back by midpoint, lost further ground to bend and never in it. Clearly not there yet. |
