1 | 14 | BRAVE KID (CK391) | D Whyte | -- | Caught wide in midfield throughout, hampered and pushed wider near 450M, began to hit top gear halfway up the straight, led 150M from home and held on. |
2 | 2 | FLYING IN (CK120) | G Mosse | B1 | Along the fence in the chasing group behind leaders, swiftly moved to the front in straight and looked a big danger until challenged by the winner inside 150M, rallied on and only went down by a narrow margin. |
3 | 5 | CLASSA (CK267) | H W Lai | B | Switched off the back from the outset and was way off the pace in early stages, responded to pressure in straight and got motoring final 200M to come within half a length of the winner. |
4 | 4 | MASTER GUNNER (CJ142) | D Beadman | SR/XB | Settled behind mid-division and swung wide into straight, stayed on down the outside but lacked the extra gear to challenge the first three. |
5 | 7 | JUN DAO (CL110) | B Prebble | -- | Held up behind midfield but not far off from leaders, shifted out to a clear path inside 350M, ran on well for some distance before hitting a flat spot in late stages. |
6 | 1 | GREAT HEART (CK219) | M Chadwick | B/TT | Held inside running in midfield, briefly threatened with a promising looking run inside 300M but could find no extra in the closing stages. |
7 | 10 | AMNESTY (CK051) | W M Lai | B/XB/TT | Settled 2-wide in midfield, made a mild rally down the inside under a strong drive but couldn't reach the leaders. |
8 | 11 | CHINA WIN (CJ147) | K W Leung | B | Checked at the start and lost ground, ended up in last pair 8-9Ls behind leaders, trapped on the inside in straight and lacked racing room to 100M, eased late on. |
9 | 12 | KING AL AKBAR (CK381) | M L Yeung | TT1 | Broke well and took up a 2-wide position ahead of midfield, badly blundered and shifted out abruptly near 450M, recovered but could only finish off the race at the same pace. |
10 | 13 | ALL TIME HIGH (CG285) | K L Chui | B/XB/TT | Vied for lead with two other runners, took a 1L lead inside 400M but was soon headed, weakened badly in late stages. |
11 | 3 | INVINCIBLE HEART (CL071) | A Gryder | TT1 | Chased leaders in 4th, moved into a striking position approaching the top of the straight but was unable to quicken once coming under pressure, faded away 200m out. |
12 | 9 | ROYAL KNIGHT (CL094) | J Victoire | TT1 | Awkwardly away, behind midfield 7Ls away from the strong early pace, taken wide to make his move but lacked the needed response. Never a factor. |
13 | 6 | DREAM HORSE (CG029) | M W Leung | H/TT | Pressed on early and vied for lead on the inside, soon outpaced turning for home, eased when no chance passing 200 M. |
14 | 8 | CASH MONEY (CH030) | C W Wong | B/H | Driven out to press the lead on the outside of three, weakened going into straight, soon behind. |
