1 | 7 | VICTORY MARVEL (T426) | Z Purton | -- | Began well, ridden forward, settling midfield in one-off position. Began forward move 500m, four-wide into straight, hit front 200m, won comfortably. |
2 | 8 | SHARP HUNTER (P097) | D Whyte | B | Steadied soon after start, dropping behind midfield in one-off position. Raced fiercely passing 800m, three-wide final turn, taken to centre track and finished off nicely. |
3 | 3 | GLOBE TROTTER (T387) | O Bosson | B1/TT | Bumped and unbalanced start, taken to rail, settling 4L from leader. Got inside run in straight and ran on well to grab minor lacing. |
4 | 1 | SUPREME FLIGHT (M199) | K K Chiong | B/TT | Flat-footed at start, ridden to make up ground, settling in box seat. Disappointed for run 500m, blocked top of straight, switched out 180m to get run, boxed on. |
5 | 10 | GLORY HORSIE (M273) | J Moreira | B | Pressed forward from an outside draw, racing wide 2L from leader. Taken 3-wide turning for home, hit front momentarily in straight, turning one-paced final 200m. |
6 | 5 | LONDON MASTER (T345) | S Clipperton | TT | Ridden to hold forward position, settling 1L behind leader in one-off position. Rolled forward turning for home, hit front 400m, tired quickly passing 200m. |
7 | 12 | ROYAL SPIRIT (T257) | M Chadwick | B/TT | Eased after jumping and shifted across behind runners but kept wide at rear. Rolled forward passing 500m but only one-paced in straight under hard riding. |
8 | 2 | VICTORIUS (N423) | N Rawiller | B | Jumped OK, outpaced, dropping towards rear along fence. Improved slightly back stretch, got inside run in straight, but found nothing under pressure. Had substantial amount of blood in trachea. |
9 | 4 | GOLDEN GLORY (T076) | K Teetan | B/TT | Vigorously ridden to lead on settling. Set decent pace to turn, collared entering straight, kept on fairly to 150m before tiring. |
10 | 11 | WINNING STAR (T221) | H W Lai | P | Restrained on jumping, shifted across behind runners, dropping to rear in one-off position. Last passing 800m, last into straight, ran past beaten runners. |
11 | 9 | YO-YO DA (S104) | N Callan | H/TT | First out but eased out of pace battle, settling 5th 4L from leader. Came under pressure 500m out, did not respond and spent force 300m out. Had slight wounds back of right hind leg. |
12 | 6 | HELEN'S CHOICE (P185) | M L Yeung | -- | Crowded and lost ground at start, dropping to rear. In last pair from 900m, last soon after straightening, finished tailed out. Unacceptable performance. |
