1 | 13 | GOLDEN BOY (CJ263) | M W Leung | B/H/TT | Darted straight to the front and led by 3Ls at 1000m; briefly headed shortly into straight; rallied; led again; pulled clear inside final 100m. |
2 | 2 | ALMIGHTY (CK006) | K W Leung | P | Slow to muster early pace; rearward through first half; 7Ls down in 12th cornering in; ran on strongly to a nick 2nd in final stride. |
3 | 4 | MASTER TOWER (CK012) | T H So | -- | Sat 2nd initially; 3Ls back in 2nd tracking winner 700m out; briefly led at top of home straight; couldn't sustain; all out to hang onto a place. |
4 | 8 | WING MASTER (CK258) | W Pike | B-/XB/P1/TT | 2-wide and 8th or 9th about 7Ls off speed down the back; closer off last bend; every chance of a place at 200m; missed out in final strides. |
5 | 12 | LAZY BUDDIES (CC208) | M L Yeung | B | Niggled along in rear initially; 8Ls off speed at halfway; marginally closer turning for home; ran on well late on; never nearer. |
6 | 10 | COULDN'T CARE LESS (CD009) | Z Purton | -- | 5-back on rails in 12th at 1200m; 5Ls off in midfield turning in; checked 250m out and tight for room at 100m; possibly unlucky not to place. |
7 | 1 | WESTERN STAR (CK299) | J Victoire | B | 4-back the rails about 5Ls off speed at halfway; a little closer on straightening; looked to have his chance to place but lacked a turn of foot. |
8 | 3 | LUCKY MONEY STAR (CH273) | O Doleuze | -- | Caught wide no cover at first; 3-wide with cover in mid-division 6Ls off leaders at halfway; never looked like drawing much closer than midfield. |
9 | 11 | EPEE DE HUA (CJ307) | C K Tong | B | Awkward break; about 4Ls off pace in 4th at 1000m; a little closer on straightening but soon pressured and yielded ground rapidly. |
10 | 7 | WADADELIGHT (CC340) | D Beadman | B | Midfield 5Ls off pace with cover at the 1000m; close enough if good enough before last bend; very weak inside final 200m despite easy trip. |
11 | 6 | NIGHT HUNTER III (CH102) | B Doyle | CP | Always rearward; still 10Ls last at 600m; widest turning for home; no real impression. |
12 | 14 | WEALTH SYNERGY (CJ133) | G Cheyne | B/H | Handily placed in 4th on fence at the 1200m; 4Ls back in similar spot at halfway; surrendered tamely in the straight despite the soft run. |
13 | 5 | MASTER GREEN (CJ104) | W C Marwing | V/TT | Never much of a factor; always at least 5Ls or so from the speed in rear. |
14 | 9 | SOUND OF SILENCE (CD136) | Y T Cheng | B | Caught a little wide in places; midfield 5Ls off pace at halfway; closer turning in but found zero off the bit; to trial. |
