Horse Name | Jockey | Gear | Comment |
1 | 2 | SPEEDY STAR (CJ174) | O Doleuze | -- | 3-back on rails 3Ls from the pace when keen at the 1200 M, similar spot entering final quarter, 1L back in 2nd at the 200 M, led soon after and kept on well. |
2 | 3 | AMAZING FORTUNE (CH235) | S K Sit | B | Slow to muster early pace, 5Ls back in 7th at halfway and edged closer off last bend, stayed on fairly well to nick 2nd on the line. |
3 | 10 | WHATAFANTASY (CH267) | M L Yeung | B | 2-wide and 2Ls back in 3rd at 1200 M, eased forward to dispute lead entering final straight, a neck clear 200 M out, soon headed, lost 2nd on line. |
4 | 9 | DASHING CHAMPION (CC015) | K C Leung | SR | Pressed forward to lead by 2Ls at the 1000 M, joined for the lead at top of home straight and yielded ground steadily inside final 200 M. |
5 | 1 | MAJESTIC HEART (CH319) | D Whyte | V | Slowly away again, rearward through first half and still 6Ls back in 10th at the 600 M, retrieved some ground in straight but not a genuine threat. |
6 | 12 | RAIN OF THUNDER (CJ352) | J Winks | B1 | 2-wide and 4Ls back in 5th at halfway, closer in 4th swinging for home, had his chance but one-paced and tended to hang in the straight. |
7 | 8 | SWEET BABY (CG294) | H W Lai | B | Midfield on the rails about 4Ls or so from the speed through to the final turn, moderate late headway on the rails, posed no real danger overall. |
8 | 11 | STRIKING MASCOT (CH154) | J Lloyd | B/TT | Bounded in the air and fluffed the break by about 6Ls, 8Ls last at halfway, regained some fair late ground in the straight, nearest at the finish. |
9 | 5 | KINGSTON WINNER (CC024) | W M Lai | B | Best away, handed up the lead to track the leader on the rails in 2nd or 3rd until the last bend, very one-paced in conclusion. |
10 | 7 | FUJIAN PRINCE (CE006) | K T Yeung | XB-/SR2/TT | Went back from wide gate, one from rear about 7Ls from the speed at halfway, closer but last turning in, never likely. |
11 | 6 | WONG'S FAVOURITE (CG131) | P H Lo | SR/V | On fence about 7Ls back in 9th at the 1000 M, a little nearer off last turn, yielded ground again inside the final stages. |
12 | 4 | BREAKING POINT (CJ179) | W C Marwing | PC | Raced much too freely through first half in 8th or 9th about 5Ls from the pace, had little to offer in the straight having over-raced so much. |
