1 | 8 | WINNER SMART (CK029) | B Prebble | -- | Awkwardly away then was taken across runners to settle back in the field on the fence. Made good headway along the inside from the 500 M, switched out into clear running near the 200 M, charged to the line, won easily. |
2 | 4 | STALLION SUPREME (CJ268) | P H Lo | SR | Showed great gate speed and speared to the front to lead on the fence. Looked the winner until overhauled in the final stages. |
3 | 3 | AMAZING FLYER (CK113) | C Soumillon | TT | Camped on the back of the speed, 3 back, 1 off with cover. Pinched a break to improve and be on the leaders heels on the home turn. Didn't have a lot of room until after shifting out near the 200 M, got to the line well. |
4 | 5 | AASHIQ (CK175) | D Whyte | -- | Jumped awkwardly but showed sufficient early speed to go forward and race in 2nd position, 1 off. Battled on well to stay in the frame after being bumped near the 200 M. |
5 | 6 | MAGNANIMOUS (CK111) | W C Marwing | -- | Settled behind midfield, 3-wide with cover. Worked home nicely. |
6 | 14 | WITHALLMYHEART (CE268) | W M Lai | TT | Positioned behind the speed, 3-wide with cover. Kept on soundly in the run to the post. |
7 | 7 | SMART KNIGHT (CK052) | Y T Cheng | -- | Raced on the pace but faced the breeze 3-wide. Gradually weakened over the last 100 M. |
8 | 13 | MASTER TOWER (CK012) | T H So | -- | Raced with the rear division, 4-wide with cover. Came widest in the straight but failed to run on. |
9 | 2 | OASIS DAVIS (CK138) | M W Leung | SR | Slow to begin then improved along the fence to travel in a handy position. Was held up rounding the home turn, and was checked at the 200 M, never recovered from thereon. |
10 | 9 | GIANT BLIZZARD (CJ171) | J Winks | CP | Began awkwardly lost ground and settled a long last. Passed tiring runners along the inside in the straight. |
11 | 1 | STAR LEGEND (CJ233) | J Victoire | -- | Raced towards the rear, 2-wide with cover. Never quickened after turning for home. |
12 | 11 | SINGLE MALT (CK110) | K L Chui | TT | Box seated. Faded quickly inside the final furlong. |
13 | 10 | GUAN DAO (CH211) | M Du Plessis | -- | Raced midfield, 2-wide with cover. Struggled in the final stretch. (Vet reported the following day that the horse had a stiff and restricted action, OVE.) |
14 | 12 | MAGIC PRACTITIONER (CK125) | H W Lai | -- | Travelled midfield 4 deep without cover. Not likely. |
