Horse Name | Jockey | Gear | Comment |
1 | 9 | PRECISION MAGIC (CJ262) | M L Yeung | -- | Settled 8th about 5Ls from the speed at halfway, a little coser and going well turning in, quickened up to lead 200 M out, hung left while pulling clear. |
2 | 4 | LEADER (CG012) | W C Marwing | SR | 3-back the rails about 6Ls back at the 1000 M, edged closer taking last turn and 1L down in 6th at the 200 M, grabbed 2nd late but little chance with winner. |
3 | 13 | HELENE ELITE (CJ093) | M Chadwick | B/XB/TT | Pressed forward to dispute the pace at the 1000 M and a neck in front off last bend, headed by winner 200 M out and lost out on 2nd in final strides. |
4 | 5 | STEEL NERVES (CG320) | Z Purton | B | Keen early, 2Ls back in 4th out 2-wide at the 800 M, still close-up and 3rd off last bend and upsides 250 M out, one-paced final furlong. |
5 | 7 | LIONS' FORTUNE (CJ114) | J Winks | B-/H2/TT | Travelled well in 6th or so no worse than 4Ls from the lead through to home straight, 1L off and dangerous at the 200 M, run soon peaked. |
6 | 1 | FLY ME TO THE MOON (CG104) | D Whyte | B2 | Awkward break losing 2Ls immediately, 3-wide with cover and behind midfield 5Ls from pace until home straight, never loomed likely. |
7 | 6 | IMPLIED VOLATILITY (CK046) | Y T Cheng | -- | 4Ls back in 7th down the back straight, 5Ls back swinging for home, 3Ls back in midfield at the 200 M, couldn't get any closer. |
8 | 3 | KING POWER (CJ334) | H W Lai | -- | 8Ls last at the 1000 M and similarly placed at point of home turn, recovered a little late ground through beaten rivals. |
9 | 2 | LUFENG FORTUNE (CJ140) | B Prebble | B | Over-raced initially while vying for the lead, a neck back in 2nd off last bend, all out to remain in touch at the 200 M, very tired final furlong. |
10 | 8 | HEALTHY CONTENDER (CJ342) | W M Lai | -- | Always rearward, 7Ls back and last at halfway, never really on terms. |
11 | 12 | SUPER FANTASY (CD162) | P H Lo | -- | 3-wide without cover when 2Ls back in 5th at the 1000 M and 4th off final bend when still close up, ceded ground rapidly. |
12 | 10 | DAILY DOUBLE (CK043) | B Doyle | SR | Always towards the rear, at least 6Ls from the speed through to the home straight, a little closer at the 200 M but very weak final 200 M. |
13 | 11 | HAPPY TOUCH (CJ008) | C K Tong | TT | Took up the box-seat position 2Ls back in 3rd on fence from the 1000 M, pressured to keep up at the 600 M despite the soft run, dropped out, to trial. |
