1 | 3 | WIN A DOZEN (CH262) | G Mosse | TT | Began well. Cut to the fence and led from 1300 M. Held a 1L advantage turning in. Seriously challenged final furlong but battled determinedly to get up on line. |
2 | 5 | SOLDIER (CK346) | B Prebble | B | Prominent position to home straight. Loomed as a strong chance final furlong. Just denied at post. |
3 | 4 | WIN-A-LOT (CJ124) | M Guyon | -- | Midfield on fence to home straight. Picked up well when ridden but couldn’t quite catch the front pair. |
4 | 9 | CLASSA (CK267) | C Y Ho | CP | 2-wide at midfield early. Dropped behind midfield approaching the Rock. Took some time to get clear run passing 300 M. Found the line fairly well once clear. |
5 | 11 | MY WAY (CJ203) | N Callan | V-/B2 | 2-wide towards rear. Hard ridden home turn and was 6Ls down leaving the bend. Closed off strongly and was nearest at finish. |
6 | 8 | KING ON EARTH (CL251) | J Lloyd | SR | Moderate start and was trapped wide. Taken to 3-wide at rear first turn. Some improvement at the Rock and made run wide passing 400 M. Covered decent ground late. |
7 | 2 | JOLLY WONGCHOY (CH076) | D Whyte | TT | Shaken up early and parked one-off behind leader from 1300 M. Well positioned to strike in the straight but couldn't turn up a notch. Weakened final stages. |
8 | 1 | STEEL NERVES (CG320) | C K Tong | B | Dropped to 2-wide at rear after start. Last into final stretch. Beat tired runners home. |
9 | 10 | FULL STAR (CL031) | M L Yeung | H1 | Slow to begin and raced behind midfield on fence. No real progress in the straight. |
10 | 6 | SUPER GURU (CL005) | K C Leung | B | Away in line. Rolled to 2-wide ahead of midfield from first turn. Found nothing when asked in the straight. Faded final stages. |
11 | 7 | MASTER DREAMER (CE293) | W M Lai | B | Travelled wide and without cover at midfield until middle stages. Very little impression thereafter. |
12 | 12 | NICKU (CK389) | Z Purton | TT | Began awkwardly. Niggled along but couldn't cross. Trapped wide and without cover towards rear first turn. Improved wide to race ahead of midfield approaching home turn. Beaten soon after straightening. |
