Horse Name | Jockey | Gear | Comment |
1 | 2 | TURF MAGIC (CK307) | Z Purton | B | Niggled along to hold a fence position in midfield, moved closer rounding the home turn, kicked strongly when asked final 350 M, hit the front at 150 M, drew clear very easily. |
2 | 7 | WINDICATOR RETURNS (CJ191) | B Prebble | -- | Prominently placed just behind the leader, finished off well under pressure final 300 M, took the 2nd in the final stride. |
3 | 3 | SOARING RIVER (CK137) | B Doyle | -- | Broke well, settled cosily 3Ls off the speed on rails, bit one-paced early in the home straight, kept on soundly for a place. |
4 | 1 | MASTER GUNNER (CJ142) | K C Leung | SR/XB | Awkward start, soon ran up to catch up 5Ls behind the leader on rails, moved closer along the inner rounding the home turn, on heels at 150 M, made gradual ground, just late for a place. |
5 | 11 | CAGA SPIRIT (CK287) | Y T Cheng | TT | Settled 4 to 5Ls off pace, proved difficult to settle in the middle stages, on heels at 600 M, blocked early in the home straight, ran on steadily when clear at 200 M, too late. |
6 | 4 | EVER BEAUTY (CJ161) | C K Tong | XB | Jumped fast, pushed hard to lead and found the fence near 900 M, quickened well when asked at the top of the straight, looks possible for a place until flattened at 50 M. |
7 | 6 | CHEETAH BOY (CL192) | J Lloyd | H1 | Broke well, urged along to hold a one-off spot 3Ls off the speed, struggled rounding the home turn, covered some ground under pressure final 200 M. |
8 | 8 | CONFUCIUS CLASSIC (CJ141) | M L Yeung | CP/TT | Taken back from gate 12 and travelled 6 to 7Ls off the speed, made gradual ground along the inner final 350 M, but never really troubled the principals. |
9 | 9 | GO FAY FAY (CK313) | W C Marwing | -- | Urged along to hold a one-off spot in midfield, travelled keenly when restrained in the middle stages, on heels at 900 M, only one-paced when asked for efforts in the home straight. |
10 | 5 | MASTER RIO (CK188) | D Whyte | -- | Caught wide early and drifted back to the mid-division, travelled without cover throughout the trip, failed to quicken when asked early in straight, soon faded. |
11 | 12 | DESTINY'S CHILD (CK156) | T H So | B/XB/TT | Pushed hard early to share the lead on 2-deep, outpaced at the top of home straight, soon weakened. |
12 | 10 | INVINCIBLE HEART (CL071) | M W Leung | XB/TT | Taken rearward from gate 11, swung widest for home, failed to make up any ground. |
