1 | 2 | SUPER PEGASUS (CH141) | C Soumillon | TT | 2Ls back in 2nd on fence at 1300 M, 1L down in 2nd swinging for home, kicked 2Ls clear at the 200 M, drew further clear for very easy win. |
2 | 3 | JOYFUL YEARS (CG143) | D Whyte | P1 | Trapped 3-wide no cover throughout, improved position down backstretch and 4Ls back in 5th at 800 M, stayed on fairly well but no chance with winner. |
3 | 13 | DRAGON STRIDE (CC370) | W M Lai | -- | Slightly worse than midfield about 5Ls or 6Ls from the front until home turn, made some minor late headway for a place. |
4 | 7 | FREEBIRD (CC319) | G Boss | CP | Tended to carry head awkwardly as usual, 3Ls back in 3rd out 2-wide at 1300 M, had his chance to place in the straight but lacked the kick. |
5 | 6 | GALLANT KNIGHT (CC189) | K T Yeung | V/TT | Lost ground at start, no better than 6Ls from the speed until home bend, plugged on at the one pace. |
6 | 4 | JOY TRUMPS (CD242) | B Prebble | B/TT | 10Ls last at the 1200 M, still well back turning for home, ran on past a few tired rivals late. |
7 | 12 | SUPREME DRAGON (CH161) | C K Tong | P1/TT1 | Slowly away, in rear about 7Ls behind leader through to final bend, passed a few beaten rivals on the run-in. |
8 | 5 | JADE DANCER (CE170) | E Saint-Martin | CP | 4Ls back out 2-wide in 5th at 1300 M and similar making final turn, very one-paced. |
9 | 10 | LAZY BUDDIES (CC208) | G Mosse | B | Caught 4-wide no cover about 6Ls in midfield at the 1200 M, posed little or no danger. |
10 | 11 | LUCKY WORLD (CJ053) | Y T Cheng | TT | Good early pace to lead on fence by 1L from 1400 M to home turn, soon head and faded out. |
11 | 9 | TELECOM SIR (CH217) | K Shea | -- | 3-back on fence about 4Ls off speed in 4th at the 1000 M, close enough if good enough at the final turn, dropped away. |
12 | 1 | EASY GAME (CC346) | S Dye | PC | 4-with cover in rear about 8Ls from the speed at 1000 M, still well back and under pressure turning for home, no danger. |
13 | 14 | TOP SPEED (CH019) | K L Chui | B/TT | Slowly away, worse than midfield about 6Ls from the speed at 1200 M and similarly placed going for home, always in rear. |
14 | 8 | TATTENHALL DELIGHT (CG068) | Z Purton | -- | Very keen through early stages in rear, about 7Ls down at halfway in rear, offered nothing in the straight. |
