Horse Name | Jockey | Gear | Comment |
1 | 3 | FULL BLESSINGS (CH238) | K L Chui | TT | Travelled 1 out 1 back. Was in front by the 200 M and was never headed. |
2 | 12 | DOUBLE FANTASY (CG141) | O Doleuze | B | Parked midfield, 2 deep with cover. Worked through to obtain a clear passage in the straight and loomed as a serious opponent but wasn't quite up to the mark. |
3 | 7 | TELECOM EMPEROR (CH137) | B Prebble | B/TT | Began on terms but couldn't go the early speed of the race and settled at the tail of the field. Shifted out early in the straight and closed off well. |
4 | 11 | MAINLAND MASTER (CG044) | K T Yeung | -- | Stalked the leader along the fence. For a considerable distance after straightening was held up and unable to improve. Got to the line fairly. |
5 | 6 | HOT SUN (CJ005) | C K Tong | XB- | Slow to begin and settled back in the field along the fence. Made some ground in the straight despite hanging out. |
6 | 4 | ALIVE AND KICKING (CJ071) | D Beadman | SR1/H/TT | Raced outside the leader about 3/4L back. Had every hope. |
7 | 5 | NEW ASIA FORWARD (CH309) | E Saint-Martin | CP/TT | Raced behind midfield 2 to 3-wide with cover. Failed to quicken at any stage in the run to the line. |
8 | 1 | ACTIVE VALOUR (CG045) | M L Yeung | B | Travelled towards the rear 3 deep with cover and hung out on the home turn. Struggled in the straight. |
9 | 9 | SO NICE (CG110) | P H Lo | CP/H | Raced midfield 3 to 4-wide without cover. Not likely. |
10 | 10 | BLUE SAINT (CJ080) | H W Lai | B | Led turning for home but quickly tired approaching the furlong. (Blood in the trachea.) |
11 | 2 | WINNING AHEAD (CJ018) | W C Marwing | B/TT | Despite being ridden along in the early stages failed to muster speed, then throughout the race travelled wide and without cover in a midfield position. Never a factor. |
12 | 8 | DAYLIGHT EXPRESS (CH036) | Y T Cheng | B1 | From the outside barrier raced midfield but hung out for the major part of the race, making the turns hung out badly and travelled wide and without cover. Finishing well back. (To trial). |
