Horse Name | Jockey | Gear | Comment |
1 | 8 | TEAM FORTUNE (T306) | D Whyte | -- | Took keen hold early stages, no closer than 3-wide in running, responded well to pressure with a sustained run from 400M, led 100M and drew clear for successive win. |
2 | 9 | HARBOUR ALERT (T254) | C Schofield | -- | Quickly into stride, led at good pace to straight, continued on well when challenged by a rival but couldn't fend off fast finishing winner final 100M. |
3 | 3 | SKY HERO (T083) | Z Purton | B | Jumped well to be 2nd tracking leader, continued the chase entering straight, kept battling to the line but was always held. |
4 | 11 | SUN TOUCH (V266) | S Clipperton | H/TT | Began only fairly, urged along and improved to 3rd 700M, inclined to hang in when placed under pressure and proved difficult to ride, made late gains on 3rd when straightened up. |
5 | 1 | DISCIPLES TWELVE (P018) | C Y Ho | -- | Taken back from wide barrier, 2nd last 7Ls behind leader making the turn, made steady gains final 300M and fared best among those coming from off the pace. |
6 | 5 | JADE FORTUNE (V020) | H W Lai | H | Settled down midfield, 6Ls to make up 400M, stayed on without threatening. |
7 | 6 | GRAND PLUS (S066) | J Moreira | P/TT | In mid-division 3-4Ls off the pace, saved ground on the rail, remained inside on straightening but well held by leaders in the run home. |
8 | 2 | OUR FOLKS (P400) | O Doleuze | TT | Not far off the pace but had to be niggled along to keep up with leaders, unable to make gains when driven out 300M, faded towards the finish. |
9 | 12 | VICTORY FOLLOW ME (V182) | K Teetan | SR/TT | Not hurried early stages, towards the rear 6Ls off the pace, brought wide 500M but stayed on only fairly, never dangerous. |
10 | 10 | GIANT STARS (T218) | K C Leung | H/XB2/TT1 | Settled towards the rear 6-7Ls back, ran on only one pace, not reach contention. |
11 | 7 | POSITIVE FORCE (V218) | O Bosson | B | Outpaced in detached last, 9Ls off leader 400M, eased early straight when no chance, never in it. |
12 | 4 | SEA RUBY (S238) | B Prebble | H/P/TT | Caught wide no cover chasing leaders, eased down 400M. Jockey said his mount felt sore but no vet findings. Unacceptable Performance. |
