1 | 4 | LEGEND (CK042) | B Prebble | -- | Raced within 5Ls of the pace in a 2-wide position through to the home straight. Made strong run from 300M to score decisively. |
2 | 13 | REGENCY KINGDOM (CK031) | M Chadwick | TT | Niggled along after start but could only stay behind midfield. 7Ls down on straightening. No hope with the winner but landed 2nd closing stages with some comfort. |
3 | 14 | HIGH INTELLIGENT (CD317) | G Cheyne | B/TT | Urged early to race forward. Settled 2-wide behind the leader from 900M. Led turning in but was caught by the winner at 200M. Hung on but failed to hold 2nd closing stages. |
4 | 6 | ACHILLES OF TROY (CJ190) | Z Purton | TT | Broke well, taken towards rear early and middle stages. Swung 4-wide and was 8Ls away tuning into home. Closed off well and was nearest at finish. |
5 | 5 | CHAMPION MOUNT (CK087) | J Victoire | TT1 | In the front rank early. Eased to sit 3-wide ahead of midfield at 1000M. Shifted 2-wide and was 4Ls away at bend. Dashed well top of home straight but couldn't sustain closing stages. Barely missed 4th. |
6 | 12 | MY MEMORY (CK173) | Y T Cheng | -- | Soon led out. Gradually eased to one-out-one-back making the home turn. Kept giving thereafter but couldn't pose real threat to the principals. |
7 | 3 | FLYING IN (CK120) | G Mosse | -- | Crowded for room after start but soon found the rail behind midfield. 6Ls off at bend. Had some difficulty finding clear passage in the straight but kept making headway in run to line. |
8 | 10 | ISTIDE (CJ089) | W M Lai | TT | Good jump but couldn't work across. Sat 3-wide without cover in midfield from 1000M. Improved wide rounding the turn to track leaders. Couldn't find extra gear in the straight. |
9 | 9 | VALUE CHOICE (CG213) | J Lloyd | B | Taken towards rear from high gate. 9Ls behind the speed turning in near the rail. Covered decent ground in the straight. |
10 | 2 | MUTUAL FRIENDSHIP (CG260) | T H So | -- | Dropped to rear on fence after start from high draw. Some improvement along the rail from 800M and was 7Ls away into final stretch. One-paced to conclude. |
11 | 7 | MASCOT FORTUNE (CH221) | K C Leung | -- | Amongst first to break but was soon ridden to maintain position at midfield on fence. Settled in similar spot making the home turn. Failed to quicken and passed only beaten rivals in the straight. |
12 | 11 | JOLLY GOOD FORTUNE (CD274) | C K Tong | B/TT | Rushed to the lead after beginning awkwardly and took the fence 900M out. Levelled tuning into home straight. Couldn't turn up a notch from there. |
13 | 8 | GOOD LUCK WIN (CK004) | H W Lai | B/XB/TT | On fence on leader's back through to the home straight. Found nothing and faded from 300M. |
