Horse Name | Jockey | Gear | Comment |
1 | 5 | BEAUTIFUL CHOICE (CH130) | Z Purton | -- | Led by 1L early on, held a similar break setting a steady pace until the 200 M, all out to barely cling on for the win. |
2 | 11 | REWARDING STAR (CG234) | D Beadman | -- | Went back from a wide gate, 8Ls last at halfway, crept a little closer turning in, burst through a gap 200 M out, finished very strongly, only just failed. |
3 | 12 | MOONGLOW (CG008) | Y T Cheng | B/XB/TT | Didn't break well and checked early on, 5Ls down in rear at top of stretch, ran on well down centre of the track to nick a place late. |
4 | 13 | HELENE ELITE (CJ093) | K L Chui | XB/CP1/TT | Slowest away, worse than midfield about 6Ls off pace at 1000 M, ran on well in the straight and only just missed the money, never nearer. |
5 | 8 | HEIMORI (CJ130) | G Boss | SR- | Wide early but gained cover 3Ls back in 5th at the 800 M, going well turning for home, every chance to place, carried head a little awkwardly. |
6 | 6 | AMAZING VENTURE (CJ039) | D Whyte | -- | Nice position on rails about 2Ls or 3Ls better than midfield until home straight, given every opportunity to at least place but lacked the kick. |
7 | 10 | SOHNA (CG183) | E Saint-Martin | B | Restrained to rear from a wide gate, 7Ls last entering straight, didn't have the clearest passage down the centre of the track, nearest at finish. |
8 | 3 | CLEMENT ELITE (CH004) | B Prebble | -- | Around midfield but far too keen and unruly until the 600 M, about 4Ls back turning for home, one-paced in the finish. |
9 | 14 | FANTASTIC TIME (CH220) | M Du Plessis | CP-/V1 | Away well, 2-wide and 2Ls back in 3rd at 1000 M, 1L down and asked to quicken turning for home, one-paced in response. |
10 | 7 | EXPEDIKID (CJ156) | H W Lai | -- | Box-seated on fence between 1L and 2Ls off speed until the straight, still on the premises 300 M out but weakened final 200 M. |
11 | 1 | NEW CHAPTER (CH314) | O Doleuze | B | Trapped 4-wide no cover throughout, 5Ls back in 9th in middle stages, closer but 6-wide (widest of all) off last bend, faded final 300 M. |
12 | 2 | BAJAN BELL (CG142) | F Coetzee | B | Midfield with cover about 5Ls behind early pace, over-raced at halfway, never likely to threaten the principals. |
13 | 4 | MASTER DREAMER (CE293) | W M Lai | B | 3-wide without cover all the way, about 3Ls back in 6th in middle stages to home turn, fizzled out final furlong. |
14 | 9 | DASH (CG236) | C W Wong | -- | 3-back on fence in 10th or so about 5Ls from the speed early on, similarly placed turning for home, surrendered tamely. |
