Horse Name | Jockey | Gear | Comment |
1 | 6 | CASH MONEY (CH030) | C W Wong | B1/H | Best away but handed up early advantage to box-seat from 800 M to home straight, led again 250 M out and always doing just enough to hang on. |
2 | 1 | YOUNG ELITE (CJ349) | C K Tong | -- | With cover 4Ls back in mid-division at first, held up from top of stretch to 300 M, ran on well again once clear despite hanging in, couldn't reach winner. |
3 | 14 | PEARL HALO (CJ023) | M W Leung | TT | 4-back on fence about 5Ls behind speed from 1000 M to home straight when briefly tight for room, stayed on well along the inner to nick 3rd late. |
4 | 9 | NEW IDEA (CK007) | M Du Plessis | -- | 3-back on fence in midfield until straightening, stayed on fairly well but a little one-paced in final 100 M and tipped out of a place close home. |
5 | 7 | GIVE WELL (CJ109) | Y T Cheng | B- | Lost ground at the start and 9Ls last at 1000 M, shifted left into clear running 350 M out and let down very strongly in final 200 M, never nearer. |
6 | 13 | AMBITIOUS OWNER (CJ106) | W M Lai | B/TT | Crossed from wide gate to set good tempo by 1L on fence at 900 M, 2Ls up off home turn but headed 250 M out and faded nearer the line. |
7 | 5 | LUCKY DRAGON (CD322) | G Mosse | TT | Couldn't muster much early pace, towards rear at least 6Ls from the speed through to homestretch, failed to retrieve much late ground. |
8 | 8 | KIMBERLEY (CJ295) | H W Lai | -- | Slow to begin, 5-back along the rails in rear at 1000 M, 6Ls down in 10th or so into final section, never troubled principals. |
9 | 4 | ENCOSTA DON (CH305) | B Prebble | B1 | Midfield with cover about 5Ls from the speed until the straight, briefly loomed a place chance at the 200 M but unable to sustain the run. |
10 | 11 | JOHNSON (CJ305) | D Beadman | CP1 | Always worse than midfield, one from rear about 8Ls behind leaders off final turn, recovered some minor late ground. |
11 | 2 | ALL TIME HIGH (CG285) | K L Chui | CP/XB/TT | 3-wide with cover close in 4th or 5th to a strong tempo down back straight, nothing more to offer in the final 400 M. |
12 | 3 | BEAUTIFUL CHOICE (CH130) | K C Leung | -- | Pressed on from wide gate to race close to strong pace, disputing 2nd at halfway, faded out rapidly from top of straight, unacceptable and to trial. (Questioned for poor performance.) |
13 | 12 | WEALTH SYNERGY (CJ133) | D Whyte | SR1 | Always worse than midfield and never better than 7Ls from the lead at any stage, run deemed unacceptable and to trial. |
14 | 10 | JUGGERNAUT (CJ019) | F Coetzee | CP/TT1 | Awkward break, raced prominently out 4-wide no cover from wide gate, back-pedalling before last bend and eased down a long way out, to trial. |
