Horse Name | Jockey | Gear | Comment |
1 | 8 | WAVY PEAK (CD083) | G Boss | V/TT | Box-seated in 3rd or 4th on fence through to home straight when going well, peeled out to lead 250 M out, went clear, comfortably. |
2 | 5 | SHINING DRAGON (CC181) | P H Lo | SR/V | Crossed from wide gate to lead on fence by 2Ls at the 1100 M, over-raced early in places, headed by winner 250 M out, all out to hang on for 2nd. |
3 | 1 | FREEBIRD (CC319) | C K Tong | BO | Awkward break, flanked leader 2Ls back in 2nd at 1100 M, hung out turning for home when 1L down, tired late but just about hung on for 3rd. |
4 | 13 | SPICY HOT (CH064) | S K Sit | TT- | 3-back on fence 4Ls off speed in 5th at 1000 M, same position and under pressure off last bend, had every chance to place but lacked a turn of foot. |
5 | 3 | DAYLIGHT EXPRESS (CH036) | B Prebble | -- | 3-wide with cover in 9th at halfway about 4Ls off pace, 4-wide (widest of all) turning for home when 5Ls down, one-paced in the finish. |
6 | 9 | LIGHTNING MOUNT (CH082) | K L Chui | B/TT | No early pace, about 5Ls back in 10th at the 1000 M and slightly further back on straightening, did little to reduce the leeway. |
7 | 2 | MULTI-WIN SPIRIT (CG137) | M Nunes | XB/TT | 3-wide with cover 900 M out when 3Ls back in midfield, shuffled back and tapped for toe off last bend, disappointing finish. |
8 | 11 | FAST WINNER (CG140) | E Saint-Martin | -- | 6Ls back in 12th at the 1000 M, 3-wide with cover 600 M out, 6Ls back turning for home, one-paced thereafter. |

11 | 14 | SINOSPIEL (CG003) | M Du Plessis | B | Nicely placed 4Ls back in 4th with cover at 1000 M, struggling to lie up turning for home, plodding finish. |
12 | 10 | WATCHMAN (CB327) | Z Purton | B/SR | No Comments on Running information for this horse. |
13 | 4 | PALIO KING (CG073) | G Mosse | TT | Midfield with cover 900 M out, about 5Ls down and starting to toil off last bend, found zero under pressure. |
14 | 7 | DIAMOND FLYER (CG199) | O Doleuze | TT | Lost 3Ls at the start with a very messy break, 4-back on fence when 5Ls off pace at halfway, struggling turning in, dropped right out. (Lame next day.) |
