Horse Name | Jockey | Gear | Comment |
1 | 10 | GLITTERING (CJ343) | Z Purton | XB | Chased the pace in 5th and always going smoothly, came with a strong run inside 400M, hit the front 100M form home and drew nicely clear. |
2 | 11 | MULTI-WIN SPIRIT (CG137) | H W Lai | XB/TT | Tucked in behind leaders, challenged strongly passing 400M, briefly threatened but was firmly put aside by the winner inside 100 M. |
3 | 5 | CHAIN WIN (CJ315) | J Lloyd | H/TT | Obtained a rail position towards the stands' side, shifted away from the fence and into clear near 300M, ran on well to go 3rd close home. (Jockey questioned re riding position.) |
4 | 4 | SMART CODE (CK078) | K L Chui | B/TT | Assumed running in midfield, shifted into clear 500M out, stayed on under maximum pressure but never looked like winning. |
5 | 9 | WING MASTER (CK258) | W Pike | B/XB/TT | Awkwardly away then settled in the rear group 5Ls behind leaders, progressed steadily from 350M and is the only horse from off the pace that could make some late impression. |
6 | 12 | HAPPY SUNDAY (CE169) | M L Yeung | B/TT | Shifted in abruptly at the start, soon recovered and moved to a forward spot just behind the pace, briefly led inside 400M, inclined to hang in and couldn't sustain effort final 200M. |
7 | 8 | DAYLIGHT EXPRESS (CH036) | W C Marwing | TT | Settled behind midfield 4-5Ls back, lacked speed to challenge and was merely plugging on in the run to the line. |
8 | 2 | SCOOT DA LOOT (CH274) | O Doleuze | B | Prominently placed in 3rd, inclined to drift out under pressure from 400M, gradually weakened towards the line. |
9 | 6 | TRIUMPHANT ECHO (CJ006) | W M Lai | B/TT | Behind midfield along the stands' rail, ran on final 200M over a trip that may be a shade too short. |
10 | 13 | MAXIMUM CHARM (CJ056) | G Cheyne | B | Towards the rear, driven nearing 400M but no progress. Never factored. |
11 | 3 | SEIZE THE DAY (CJ152) | D Whyte | B | Severely checked at the start and failed to muster when ridden along, raced at the back throughout and could keep on at the same pace only final 400M. |
12 | 7 | TRANSCENDENCE (CK280) | B Prebble | H1/TT1 | Raced alone down the far side in early stages then shifted to a position on the outside of main group, not picking up when asked inside 400M, no extra close home. |
13 | 1 | JUNGLE TREASURE (CJ277) | T H So | B1 | Severely checked at the start, ended up racing in 2nd last over 5Ls behind leader, driven inside 400M but no response. No impression. |
14 | 14 | FIRST DEGREE (CH132) | K W Leung | B | Led along the stands' rail till 400M then weakened badly towards the line. (Lame left front leg.) |
