1 | 6 | BAUHINIA (CD118) | F Coetzee | PC | 5Ls back in 6th out 2-wide at 1200M, driven along to get within 4Ls of the pace turning for home, still 2Ls down at 200 M, kept on well to lead final strides. |
2 | 5 | THREE CLUBS (CG149) | O Doleuze | -- | 6Ls back in 8th at 1200 M, good headway on the circle out wider, 4-wide and 2Ls back in 4th off home turn, led about 250 M out, looked the winner before being overhauled final strides. |
3 | 3 | CENAMIRA (CD129) | D Whyte | B/TT | With cover 8Ls back in 10th at 1100 M, improved on the circle to be 4-wide and 4Ls back in midfield turning for home, stayed on fairly to nick 3rd on the wire. |
4 | 1 | GLOBAL WAY (CG158) | M Nunes | H-/V1/TT1 | Mostly caught 3-wide no cover, 3Ls back in 4th at 1200 M, improved to 1L down in 2nd off home turn, missed a place on the line after the tough trip. |
5 | 10 | SHANGHAI DELIGHT (CC352) | H K Yim | B | Nice position 2Ls back in 3rd at 1200 M, still right there off final turn, 1L down in 2nd at 200 M, had every chance to figure, lacked the pick-up. |
6 | 12 | COULDN'T CARE LESS (CD009) | S Dye | -- | Blundered the start, 12Ls last in rear at 1000 M, 4-wide turning for home with 7Ls to make up, stayed on fairly out wider to be nearest at finish. |
7 | 7 | X-SPEED (CC341) | W M Lai | B | On fence 5Ls back in 5th at 1200 M, ridden along to be 3Ls down in 4th off final turn, soon outpaced. |
8 | 13 | JOYFUL UNION (CE239) | A Delpech | B | Slow start, niggled along in rear about 9Ls off pace at halfway, ordinary finish, never nearer. |
9 | 8 | STAR PRODIGY (CD294) | Y T Cheng | P/TT | On fence 6Ls back in midfield at 1200 M, steadied out when 5Ls down off home turn, made no inroads in homestretch while hanging under pressure. |
10 | 9 | CAPABEL (CD195) | K S Yu | -- | Always worse than midfield with cover, about 8Ls back at halfway and only slightly closer on straightening, cut no ice. |
11 | 14 | SMARTY (CE036) | H W Lai | P1/TT | Slow away, 8Ls back in 9th at 1100 M, hard ridden to draw a little closer taking home turn, never likely to pass too many of those in front. |
12 | 11 | FIGS (CE141) | K T Yeung | B | Disputed fast early tempo at 1200 M, persisted to lead at 900 M, 2Ls clear on circle but headed 300 M out and weakened. |
13 | 4 | DANZIGMOUNTAIN (CG139) | E Saint-Martin | B/TT | Switched from widest gate to trail field in rear, 10Ls back in 12th at 1200 M, same position but 6Ls back at final turn, stayed there. |
14 | 2 | TIMBER CITY (CC031) | K L Chui | B | Led on fence early on, set a fast pace before handing up advantage at 900 M, began to give ground on the circle and well beaten before home turn, unacceptable performance. |
