Horse Name | Jockey | Gear | Comment |
1 | 10 | LAZY BUDDIES (CC208) | M Du Plessis | B | Checked early on in rear, 10Ls back in rear at halfway and still a long way back and widest turning for home, stayed on best to lead close home. |
2 | 14 | GLOBAL WAY (CG158) | H W Lai | V | Close-up but 3-wide no cover until the 800 M, a neck down in 2nd on the circle and led 300 M out, grabbed by the winner inside the final 30 M. |
3 | 11 | SUPER POWER (CH117) | M Chadwick | TT | Settled 9th or so about 8Ls off pace at halfway and only marginally closer turning in, ran on quite well close home for 3rd. |
4 | 4 | PACIFIC ALLIANCE (CC230) | B Prebble | CP | Prominent before easing back to 3-back on the rails position down back straight, 3Ls down in 5th off last turn, had every chance to place. |
4 | 8 | DRAGON STRIDE (CC370) | C K Tong | B2 | Held the "one-out-one-back" position from 1000 M to home turn about 2Ls off lead in 4th, 1L down in 3rd at 200 M and no excuse for not placing. |
6 | 13 | WONDER KID (CH233) | M W Leung | P/TT | Soon led on fence, led by no more than 1L from 1400 M to final turn, headed 300 M out and tipped out of the money inside final 100 M. |
7 | 12 | CALL ME CULLEN (CH113) | T H So | B/TT | Midfield about 7Ls behind in middle stages, pushed out 4-wide no cover on the circle and ran on fairly to be nearest at the finish. |
8 | 1 | SIR LAGO (CH268) | M L Yeung | B | Box-seated on rails in 4th at 1400 M, hung out at halfway, pressured and 3Ls down in 4th turning for home, very one-paced to conclude. |
9 | 2 | CENTENNIAL SMILE (CG165) | D Whyte | -- | Went back from wide gate, 10Ls down in rear at halfway and a little closer into final 400 M, not much room inside final 100 M and not tested. |
10 | 9 | SAMMY'S FORTUNE (CH204) | W M Lai | TT | Never travelling well in rear, about 12Ls adrift at the 800 M, plodded on only fairly in the final 400 M and never nearer. |
11 | 6 | SURE GAIN (CJ038) | Y T Cheng | XB- | Always rearward, 9Ls back in 10th at halfway and similar entering home straight, remained in same position despite retrieving a little late ground. |
12 | 5 | PURE ALPHA (CH008) | B Doyle | CP/XB | Slowly away, niggled along in 8th when 7Ls down at halfway, one-paced and beaten before the 200 M. |
13 | 3 | COULDN'T CARE LESS (CD009) | Z Purton | -- | Went back from wide gate, about 10Ls off pace at 800 M, 8Ls down off last bend, nearly fell when tight for room 100 M out, eased down afterwards. |
14 | 7 | LIMONCELLO (CH178) | K T Yeung | B/XB | Never going well, 4Ls back in 5th at 1000 M, about 5Ls down in 7th at the final bend, dropped out very tamely. (Questioned for poor performance.) |
