Horse Name | Jockey | Gear | Comment |
1 | 4 | LIFELINE PEGASUS (CH067) | G Mosse | TT | Settled on the back of the speed, 2-wide. Lengthened nicely in the straight to score a convincing win. |
2 | 1 | RICH DRAGON (CG079) | C Soumillon | V | Kept in touch with the leaders, 2 deep with cover. Kept on satisfactorily in run home. |
3 | 3 | BIG KAHUNA (CG177) | G Boss | B | Settled in last position in the run and was brought to the extreme outside turning into the straight. After being balanced early let down nicely and hit the line well. |
4 | 10 | FULL BLESSINGS (CH238) | K L Chui | TT1 | Made the early speed before handing up near the 700 M and taking a trailing position. Stayed on soundly. |
5 | 2 | ANIMATION (CJ035) | C K Tong | B | Worked hard from an outside gate to work forward, eventually crossing to the lead on the fence near the 700 M. Ran out of gas in the straight. |
6 | 11 | LUCKY DRAGON (CD322) | Y T Cheng | TT | From a wide barrier, was steadied and taken across behind runners to settle in 2nd last position on the fence. Sought runs along the inside, and although it received a check near the 300 M, ran on soundly. |
7 | 7 | OSCAR PRINCE (CJ052) | O Doleuze | -- | Travelled midfield, 2 deep with cover, closed off fairly. |
8 | 5 | LOHAN (CH279) | Z Purton | CP1 | Raced in 3rd last position, 2 deep with cover, battled away over the final 300 M. |
9 | 9 | AMAZING VENTURE (CJ039) | A Delpech | -- | Settled behind midfield along the rails. Peeled out in the run home but made little impression. |
10 | 12 | GENERAL KINGY (CB039) | P H Lo | B | Settled behind the early leader along the fence. Was 3 back after the 700 M, failed to give when asked for an effort at the business end of the race. |
11 | 8 | FANTASTIC TIME (CH220) | F Coetzee | CP | Raced close to midfield, 3-wide with cover. Never likely. |
12 | 14 | TRIUMPHANT GLORY (CB368) | W M Lai | B | Covered ground whilst in a midfield position, 4 deep, had cover. Struggled over the latter stages. |
13 | 6 | NEW ASIA FORWARD (CH309) | H W Lai | -- | Was posted 4 to 5-wide on the circle no cover, midfield. Was off the bit turning for home. |
14 | 13 | EXCELLENT PLASTIC (CH263) | C W Wong | TT | Travelled 3 to 4-wide for most of the trip, midfield no cover. Lost touch with the field after the 500 M. |
