Horse Name | Jockey | Gear | Comment |
1 | 9 | FLORAL PICASSO (CJ225) | M Chadwick | TT | Went forward to lead by 1L on the fence at the 1200 M, controlled the race from the front thereafter and well in command in the straight. |
2 | 3 | MAVERICK (CE199) | B Prebble | V-/CP1/TT | 2-wide and 1L in 2nd at the 1200 M, remained in 2nd through to final turn when pressured, couldn't get to the winner and all out to hold 2nd. |
3 | 5 | KINGSTON WINNER (CC024) | W M Lai | B | Led early on before handing up the lead to box-seat on fence in 3rd from 1200 M to last bend, stayed on fairly well, nearly got 2nd. |
4 | 7 | CLOVIS (CH044) | Y T Cheng | H-/B/XB | Nicely placed in the 'one-out-one-back' position 2Ls or 3Ls off pace in 4th until the final section, kept on at same pace for 4th. |
5 | 1 | AMAZING FORTUNE (CH235) | D Whyte | B | Slowly away, recovered to race 5Ls back in 6th at the 1000 M, 4Ls back turning in, one-paced to wrap up. |
6 | 6 | DASHING CHAMPION (CC015) | D Beadman | SR | 3-back on the fence 4Ls off speed in 5th at the 1200 M, going well turning for home, couldn't quicken up sufficiently. |
7 | 2 | HOLIDAY SUN (CJ328) | M L Yeung | CP | Bounded at the start and slowest out, on the rails in 8th at 1000 M, 6Ls adrift turning for home, never really threatened. |
8 | 4 | GREAT SHOW (CK001) | K C Leung | B | 4-back on the rails about 6Ls off pace at 1200 M and a little closer off last turn, never likely to improve much. |
9 | 8 | QUALITY-QUALITY (CE250) | B Doyle | B | Always midfield or slightly worse off out 2-wide at least 5Ls from the speed. |
10 | 10 | FUJIAN PRINCE (CE006) | J Lloyd | SR/TT | Raced in 10th at least 6Ls from the speed through first half, soon came under pressure, very flat run for one who was a close 2nd previously. (Questioned for poor performance.) |
11 | 11 | FORTUNE DRAGON (CH324) | M Du Plessis | B/TT | Taken back to race on rails in rear at least 7Ls from the pace through to final bend, soon beaten. |
12 | 12 | ESPACE D'OR (CJ189) | C K Tong | P/TT | Fractious in gates, always rearward at least 7Ls from the speed, another weak effort. |
