2 | 4 | HEALTHY MANNER (CL151) | M Guyon | -- | Settled in midfield from a bad draw, came under pressure rounding home bend, fought on steadily to claim 2nd closing stages. |
3 | 7 | MASTER DRAGON (CL137) | K C Leung | B/TT | Began with others, soon driven across the track to settle in a one-out-out-back position, maintained a similar spot down far side and was about 2Ls back in 3rd into straight, fought on steadily without threatening. |
4 | 10 | WESTERN STAR (CK299) | W M Lai | -- | Never too far off in 3rd or 4th on rails, similar when just over 3Ls off the speed turning for home, kept on same pace without quickening. |
