Horse Name | Jockey | Gear | Comment |
1 | 9 | FLASHING STAR (CC018) | G Schofield | -- | 3Ls off the pace 800 M out, travelled well when 2Ls down at the 400 M, picked up well to be half a length down 200 M out, led 100 M, just hung on. |
2 | 13 | SAN LORENZO (CC092) | K S Yu | -- | Slowly away, 5Ls down from the 800 M to the 400 M, 3Ls down 200 M out, kept on very strongly, just missed. |
3 | 5 | MULTIDANDY (CA329) | F Coetzee | TT | Soon led by about a length down centre of track, joined 400 M by challengers on far rail, asserted again to lead 300 M out, headed by winner 100 M out, no extra. |
4 | 8 | MAJOR BEE (CB374) | K C Tsang | B | Knuckled exiting gates, recovered quickly to be 1L off the speed 800 M out, disputing lead at the 400 M, all out when 1L down 200 M out, lost more ground close home. |
5 | 3 | LUCKY TRIO (CB199) | S Dye | -- | Never better than 3Ls or 4Ls off the pace towards the far rail at any point, never really looked like figuring in the finish. |
6 | 6 | SONGS OF THE SUN (CB237) | G Mosse | TT | 1L off the lead 800 M out, all out to dispute lead at the 400 M, 2Ls down and fading 200 M out, faded further. |
7 | 7 | RARE COLLECTION (BV102) | D Whyte | B | Kept within 3Ls off the pace until about 400 M out, soon weakened. |
8 | 2 | CERTAINTY (BV126) | P H Lo | B | Prominent against far rail 800 M out, all out to dispute lead at the 400 M, couldn't follow through, faded out. |
9 | 1 | BRILLIANT EXPRESS (CB022) | O Doleuze | TT | Bounded exiting gates, driven along down centre of track when 5Ls off the pace, never a factor. |
10 | 12 | INDIAN FIRE POWER (CC146) | H K Yim | -- | Awkwardly away, was always driven along, at least 10Ls down 400 M out, no chance. |
11 | 10 | WELL EXPRESS (BV023) | E Saint-Martin | B | No better than 5Ls off the lead until the 400 M when under pressure, dropped away. |
12 | 14 | SURE FORTUNE (CC033) | S K Sit | -- | Never better than 8Ls off the pace at any stage. |
13 | 4 | CONNOISSEUR'S BET (BV104) | M W Leung | SR | Always struggling, hard pressed to be 8Ls off the speed 800 M out, soon with no chance. |
14 | 11 | BIT FASTER (CB181) | W M Lai | -- | Was hardly sighted, tailed off 400 M out. |
