1 | 1 | ISLAND SUPER (CH297) | E Saint-Martin | -- | Out in line, posted 3 wide in midfield 4Ls away, gradually improved 4 wide with cover on bend, continued to progress to 200 M, let down nicely late to hit lead and score narrowly. |
2 | 13 | STAR OF FAME (CH043) | K T Yeung | TT | Jumped with rest, taken back to race 6Ls away in 3 wide line, improved on bend, came widest in straight, did best work last 200 M and was denied narrowly despite a late surge. |
3 | 6 | CRAIG'S DRAGON (CH131) | D Beadman | -- | Began fairly, rushed up to work across to race outside lead, had a fair run in mid-section, right there at 400 M, kept finding and hit front at 150 M and just ran out of condition late to miss major prize. |
4 | 7 | TOY STORY (CJ217) | D Whyte | -- | Jumped reasonably, settled 3 wide 3 to 4Ls away in mid-division, had cover throughout, travelled evenly turning, kept coming when run emerged to finish a handy 4th. |
5 | 14 | HONEST TREASURE (CE200) | W M Lai | B/TT | Well enough to begin, trapped 4 wide without cover 3Ls back, always working on bend, 1L down turning, kept coming in straight to be not far away in finish. |
6 | 12 | LUCKY FRUIT (CG026) | S K Sit | B | Reasonable jump, raced 2Ls back 3 wide without cover, did it tough in mid-section despite having pace to suit, 1L down challenging on turning, kept on to 100 M before tiring last bit. |
7 | 4 | FEVER PITCH (CH326) | F Coetzee | B-/H | Awkwardly away, ended up 6Ls back in running line, tracked 3 wide between horses at 400 M, didn't see much daylight but did do best work late when clear. |
8 | 3 | BOOMING CITY (CE325) | Y T Cheng | B/TT | Among first few to break, took a trail behind leader, had ideal run throughout, held up to 200 M, didn't quicken when run emerged but did hold ground last 50 M. |
9 | 9 | KILDARE (CJ198) | M Du Plessis | SR/H | Standard jump, pushed on to take up running, set pace to suit in front, worried in front by outside horse, tackled at 250 M and gave little dropping off last furlong. |
10 | 11 | MUTUAL FRIENDSHIP (CG260) | B Prebble | -- | No pace from jump ended up 6Ls away on rails, pace didn't really suit, well back on bend, held up to 200 M, made some minor late progress without threatening. |
11 | 5 | TRULLI (CH327) | O Doleuze | B/TT | Missed start by 2Ls, recovered to race 5Ls back in 2 wide line, travelled evenly between horses on bend, lacked a sprint and just battled away in finish. (Rider concerned over action.) |
12 | 8 | FLY HIGH (CH126) | H W Lai | -- | Moderate jump, ended up in midfield 3 to 4Ls back on fence, used nothing in run, flat footed when they sprinted at 400 M and just plodded to line late. |
13 | 2 | KING PRAWN SUPREME (CJ076) | Z Purton | -- | Began with first few, had ideal spot 1 out 1 back with cover, tracked a steady pace to bend, didn't let down on turning and faded out easily. |
14 | 10 | MISSION (CH073) | C W Wong | B/TT | No pace from jump, settled at tail 7Ls back on rails, unsuited by speed, still well back on turning, unable to improve and just held position last 200 M. |
