Horse Name | Jockey | Gear | Comment |
1 | 8 | SYLLABUS (CD388) | D Whyte | B/TT | Settled worse than midfield about 6Ls off speed at 1000 M, crept closer on circle to be 4-wide and 3Ls down in mid- division turning for home, picked up nicely to lead 200 M out, kept on well. |
2 | 1 | COURAGEOUSHEART (CD202) | E Saint-Martin | B | Always prominent within about 2Ls or 3Ls of the pace in 4th or 5th through to home straight, 1L down in 4th still at 200 M, stayed on fairly but never likely to pick off the winner. |
3 | 6 | SUMMERVILLE POWER (CD398) | O Doleuze | B | Shuffled back to about 6Ls off pace on fence in 10th or so at 1200 M, about 5Ls down at home turn, 2Ls down in mid- division at 200 M, finished strongly to nick a place on the line. |
4 | 11 | SHANGHAI KING (CC188) | F Coetzee | B-/CP1/TT | In midfield about 3-wide with cover and 5Ls or so off pace at 1000 M, 3Ls down on straightening, 1L down in 3rd and looked certain of a place at 100 M, lost out on line. |
5 | 10 | KIDDY SING (CD005) | G Schofield | -- | 3-wide no cover when 1L off pace in 3rd at 1400 M, pressed on to lead by 1L on fence from 800 M to home turn, no more to give once headed 200 M out. |
6 | 3 | FIREWHEEL (CD344) | C Munce | -- | Always prominent, 1L off pace in 3rd at 1400 M, 1L down in 2nd at home turn, one-paced and swamped about 200 M. |
7 | 7 | GALLANT FALCON (CD194) | B Prebble | TT | Left 3-wide without cover at 800 M when 2Ls behind lead in 4th or so, 4-wide taking home turn when 1L down in 3rd, still close up at 200 M but wilted thereafter. |
8 | 5 | DASH AHEAD (CD199) | H W Lai | SR | On and off the bridle throughout 3-back on fence about 3Ls or 4Ls off speed in midfield until home turn, steadied at 300 M, never troubled principals. |
9 | 12 | VICTORY TREASURE (CE031) | C Brown | -- | Always close up 2-wide and within 2Ls of the pace in 5th or so until straightening for home, failed to quicken up and quite pedestrian inside final 200 M. |
10 | 9 | NOBLE CHAMPION (CC287) | R Fradd | -- | Over-raced with head up early on, 4Ls off pace in midfield when 2-wide from 800 M to homestretch, soon outpaced. |
11 | 4 | MEATH (CE143) | Y T Cheng | -- | Crossed from widest gate to fence, 8Ls last at 1000 M, 6Ls down in rear turning for home, didn't get much closer. |
12 | 14 | TRIUMPH (CC214) | W M Lai | V | Led on fence until being headed at 1200 M, ridden along when 1L down in 3rd at final turn, swamped at 200 M and faded out. |
13 | 13 | LUCKY KING (CA304) | S Dye | B2 | 3-wide with cover in rear bunch between 5Ls and 7Ls off pace until home turn, finished tamely down centre of track. |
14 | 2 | GREEN IN BLUE (CD117) | P H Lo | CP | Always in rear bunch and didn't get any closer than 5Ls off pace at any stage, never a factor. |
