Horse Name | Jockey | Gear | Comment |
1 | 1 | CIRCUIT HERO (CG304) | K C Leung | B/TT | Travelled well in mid-division 3Ls from pace until home straight when slightly held up, quickened up once clear to lead 50 M out and settle matters. |
2 | 14 | SAVUTE (CE326) | T H So | V- | Soon led on fence and 1L clear from 1000 M to final bend, joined 150 M out but fought on well and only grabbed by the winner 50 M out. |
3 | 3 | FLY ME TO THE MOON (CG104) | D Whyte | B | Raced in 2nd out 2-wide with cover and 1L back in 2nd until home turn, every chance of quinella at least 200 M out, couldn't find enough. |
4 | 4 | LUFENG FORTUNE (CJ140) | E Saint-Martin | B | 6Ls back in 10th with cover at halfway and same off last turn, recovered some fair late ground, may want further and/or stronger tempo. |
5 | 8 | LUCKY BO BO (CJ350) | H W Lai | -- | Box-seated 2Ls back in 4th on fence at 800 M, under pressure at 500 M despite this soft trail and plodded on home at the one pace, might have done better. |
6 | 5 | PRECISION MAGIC (CJ262) | M L Yeung | -- | Caught 4-wide no cover initially, with cover 4Ls back in mid-division at 800 M, not much closer off last turn and the 200 M, remained same distance away. |
7 | 9 | BIG KAHUNA (CG177) | Z Purton | B | Slowest away, unbalanced at 1200 M, 3-back on rails about 4Ls from the lead at halfway and off final turn, one-paced to wrap up. |
8 | 2 | MAVERICK (CE199) | M Du Plessis | V/TT | Eased back to race 8Ls last at 1000 M, niggled along in places, marginally closer turning for home, tight for room late on when midfield. |
9 | 13 | GRAND GENERAL (CJ113) | P H Lo | CP | Stumbled at start, one from rear and 7Ls behind initial speed, checked turning for home and never likely to regain much ground. |
10 | 12 | FOREVER SUPPORT (CK024) | W M Lai | B/TT1 | 3-wide no cover at first, with cover and 2Ls down vying for 3rd at halfway, still prominent off last bend but soon fizzled out. |
11 | 11 | BEST NOODLE (CJ278) | M Chadwick | TT | Caught wide no cover throughout, 5-wide at first the 3-wide 2Ls back vying for 3rd at halfway, struggling to keep up off last bend, faded out. |
12 | 7 | MASTER DREAMER (CE293) | C K Tong | B | Midfield about 4Ls back with cover down the back, much the same turning for home, had his chance but dropped out tamely, no excuses. |
13 | 10 | PAR EXCELLENCE (CK020) | J Lloyd | -- | Worse than midfield about 6Ls off pace leaving the back, had to hurdle fallen LEADER off final bend, badly hampered, eased down a long way out. |
FE | 6 | LEADER (CG012) | Y T Cheng | SR | Worse than midfield about 6Ls off pace leaving back straight, attempting to get into the clear turning for home when clipping heels and falling. |
