Horse Name | Jockey | Gear | Comment |
1 | 11 | DANEPRINT (CC221) | Y T Cheng | B | Settled 3-back on fence 4Ls off pace in 6th at 1300 M, improved to 2Ls down in 3rd off home turn and led 250 M out, all out to just cling on for the win. |
2 | 7 | RED FORTUNE (CE192) | K L Chui | B | Niggled along when 8Ls off pace in rear at 1400 M, still well back off final bend, stayed on well through the field but post came two strides too soon to deny the win. |
3 | 1 | STAR PRODIGY (CD294) | C K Tong | P/TT | 4-back on fence 5Ls off the lead in midfield at halfway, same margin back 3-wide turning in, good headway to be over 1L back in 2nd at 200 M but the run ended final 100 M. |
4 | 5 | CHALLENGER (CE138) | G Mosse | TT | About 4Ls off pace in 5th or 6th with cover through to home turn, vying for a place at the 200 M when 2Ls back in 4th, failed to follow through. |
5 | 4 | KNIGHT TEMPLAR (CC021) | K T Yeung | B | Disputed early lead out 2-wide, 1L down in 2nd at home turn, failed to quicken up and weakened final 100 M. |
6 | 8 | RENA'S WUNDERBAR (CA285) | B Prebble | B/TT | Worse than midfield with cover about 6Ls or 7Ls off pace through to home straight, could only plug on at the same pace. |
7 | 2 | SNIPER (CD110) | D Nikolic | B/XB | Awkwardly away losing ground, 6Ls off speed in 10th at halfway and same entering home straight, threatened a place when 3Ls down in midfield at the 200 M, no extra. |
8 | 9 | SHOW BRAVELY (CB388) | F Coetzee | B | Always caught 3 and 4-wide without cover, 5Ls down in midfield at halfway, struggling to lie up off home bend, stayed on at the one pace. |
9 | 13 | FORTUNE GOLD (CD343) | H W Lai | -- | 2Ls off pace in 4th at 1200 M, under pressure to stay within 3Ls of the pace in 3rd at the 600 M, all out to be 3Ls down in midfield at final bend, tired late. |
10 | 6 | SPECTACULAR HIT (CC194) | D Whyte | -- | Always towards the rear, 8Ls off pace at 1200 M, still well back taking home turn, made only very minor late ground. |
11 | 12 | NEW TAMAR (CE156) | M Nunes | B/XB1 | No early pace and always niggled along in rear about 8Ls off the pace down the back straight, never got competitive. |
12 | 14 | WISHING WELL (CD368) | W M Lai | B | Set a brisk tempo and never clear by more than 1L until home turn, weakened sharply once headed about 250 M out. |
13 | 10 | WIN FORTUNE (CB338) | H K Yim | B | Caught 3-wide no cover about 3Ls back in 4th at 1200 M, steadily lost this position on the circle and dropped out tamely in the straight. |
PU | 3 | TELECOM TYCOON (CC039) | E Saint-Martin | B | Worse than midfield when pulled up and eased out of the race at around the 1200 M. |
