Horse Name | Jockey | Gear | Comment |
1 | 1 | RIGHT FRAAR (CE024) | D Whyte | B | Covered up in midfield about 5Ls off pace at halfway, nice headway to ease to the front 300 M out, pulled clear to win with authority. |
2 | 4 | LUCKY MONEY STAR (CH273) | Y T Cheng | SR | Marginal lead out 2-wide early, 1L clear on fence at 800 M, headed by the winner 300 M out and did well to cling onto 2nd. |
3 | 10 | EVER KING (CE147) | E Saint-Martin | V/TT | Slow to begin, towards rear about 8Ls off pace at 1200 M, improved but caught 5-wide without cover at 600 M and swung wide into home straight, kept on for a place. |
4 | 9 | CHAMPION PIONEER (CG305) | S Dye | BO | 4-back on fence and 5Ls off speed inside the winner at 800 M, shuffled back into straight and held up until the 200 M, edged out to the clear and ran on for 4th, unlucky not to place. (See Racing Incidents.) |
5 | 3 | DURABLE (CE190) | B Prebble | -- | Away well and enjoyed a nice trail no worse than 2Ls off pace in 3rd or so before straightening for home, one-paced in the finish. |
6 | 6 | SOUTHERN EMPEROR (CH223) | G Mosse | BO-/TT1 | Missed the start, about 9Ls last on fence at 1200 M, still in rear and widest (5-wide) until home turn, ran on past some tired rivals. |
7 | 8 | RED WINE HONEY (CE287) | S K Sit | B | Slowly away, worse than midfield 5Ls off pace at midpoint, closer but held up for running at top of home straight, never saw too much daylight. |
8 | 7 | BIG WINNER (CD229) | M Nunes | B/TT | Midfield with cover about 4Ls off pace until halfway, within 2Ls of the lead when steadied entering home straight, soon outpaced. |
9 | 13 | FANTASTIC WIN (CB188) | P H Lo | B | In 10th or so about 7Ls off pace at 1000 M and steadied soon after, improved to 2Ls back in 5th when 4-wide swinging for home, couldn't sustain the bid. |
10 | 12 | GOOD VIEW SUCCESS (CE237) | G Boss | TT | 3-back on fence about 4Ls off speed in 5th at halfway, never found too much room pinned to the fence and not fully tested. |
11 | 5 | SUPER IDEAL (CC223) | K T Yeung | TT | Briefly 3-wide without cover at 900 M when 2Ls back in 4th, lost this position taking final bend and steadily faded out. |
12 | 2 | SUPER FANTASY (CD162) | A Delpech | TT | Around midfield but left without cover at 900 M and began to race keenly, strode on out wide without cover to dispute the lead before home turn, emptied out at the 200 M. |
13 | 11 | GALAXY DANCER (CH179) | D Nikolic | B | Disputed early pace out 3-wide without cover, 2-wide and 1L off pace at 800 M, began to tire before the home turn and continued to fade. |
14 | 14 | MASTER ABLE (CD349) | W M Lai | B | Always towards the rear, unbalanced in 12th at 600 M when 6Ls behind the pace, never looked at all likely. |
