1 | 1 | O'REILLY RALLY (CH266) | B Prebble | TT | Broke well, slotted in nicely to 1 out 1 back spot 3Ls off solid pace, had ideal trip in middle stages, cruising on bend, angled out and overhauled them at 200 M going on to score an easy victory. |
2 | 11 | BE MY SONG (CH272) | S K Sit | V-/H2/TT | First out, showed natural pace to travel outside leader, applied pressure to leader and raced 3Ls clear at a genuine tempo, hit lead passing 300 M and stayed on but didn't have dash of winner late. |
3 | 4 | ALL TIME HIGH (CG285) | K L Chui | CP/XB/TT | Lacked usual dash, ended up a little further back than expected (checked 1100 M) 4Ls away in 5th position, made steady progress on circle, kept improving in straight closing well for 3rd. |
4 | 9 | KING PRAWN SUPREME (CJ076) | D Whyte | -- | Well enough to begin, settled 4Ls back on rails tracking genuine pace, relaxed well in middle stages, same margin back in 4th turning in, improved at same pace in straight to make frame indicating a need for longer. |
5 | 12 | GOOD PARTNER (CE221) | K T Yeung | XB | Standard getaway but drifted back to settle behind midfield, raced 6Ls back on rails suited by pace, shifted 2 wide on circle, in clear at 400 M and made many lengths to be nearest on line. |
6 | 13 | RELY ON ME (CE068) | A Delpech | TT | Showed usual pace to easily roll to front, kept pace reasonable throughout with pressure from outside horse (2Ls clear of rest) kept field chasing on bend, tackled at 300 M and couldn't sprint again when petrol ran out late. |
7 | 5 | MAGIC SWEEP (CH299) | G Boss | B | Out in line, took a midfield position 5Ls back on fence, had a soft trip with pace on, gradually improved saving ground on bend, lacked dash in stretch but made steady progress between runners before run ended late. |
8 | 2 | TRIUMPHANT DIAMOND (CG227) | E Saint-Martin | -- | No pace and allowed to drift back to tail, shared rear nearly 10Ls away, suited by solid speed in front, still last at 400 M, made good ground between runners in straight doing best work late. |
9 | 10 | WINBO (CJ085) | D Beadman | -- | Crowded on jumping, ended up 7 to 8Ls back on fence, proved difficult to settle in in middle stages, began to improve on circle, ran into more trouble when making ground at 200 M and lost chance thereafter. |
10 | 3 | CAGA BOY (CG060) | M Nunes | -- | No early pace, ended up 3 wide 8Ls off lead, aided by tempo (checked 1100 M), tracked 3 wide in middle stages with pace to suit, lacked usual close in straight just holding ground in run to line. |
11 | 8 | AMBITIOUS OWNER (CJ106) | W M Lai | XB-/B1 | Restrained from a wide gate, raced 10Ls back on rails, helped by fast pace in mid-section, saved ground on circle, unable to go up a gear and just battled in run to line. |
12 | 7 | GOAL KEEPER (CH277) | G Mosse | V | Lacked early speed and allowed to slide back from a wide draw, raced 4 wide 9 to 10Ls back with cover, helped by tempo but forced to cover too much ground, made no impression in straight. |
13 | 6 | HAPPY GO LUCKY (CH127) | O Doleuze | -- | Not much early toe and caught 4 wide without cover from a difficult draw, raced 7Ls back and always working in run, struggled on turning and hard run took toll dropping out in straight. |
