1 | 10 | SOU MA TAM (CH253) | B Prebble | B | Away in line, driven to race alongside the leader, travelled comfortably throughout, forcefully driven on straightening, hit the front 200 M out and kept on strongly. |
2 | 6 | MEGABUCKS (CJ301) | B Doyle | SR1 | Began awkwardly, pressed on to a forward position 2Ls behind the leader, into clear at 250 M, ran home strongly and just got up to take 2nd on the line. |
3 | 2 | STAREILLY (CJ083) | F Coetzee | TT | One of the first to jump, quickly advanced to the lead, travelled along the fence at a solid pace, hard driven from 350 M, fought on gamely before overhauled by the first two. |
4 | 1 | GUAN DAO (CH211) | M L Yeung | -- | Quickly away, initially pressed hard for the lead, eased off at 1000 M to settle 2 wide just off the pace, ran on in the home straight without threatening the first three. |
5 | 12 | SUPER BOBO (CJ116) | H W Lai | CP-/B1/TT1 | Slowly into stride from a wide alley, worked across to race along the fence at the back, improving on the turn, eased out to deliver a strong finish, closest at the line. |
6 | 11 | NEW TRIUMPH (CG105) | K C Leung | -- | Moderate jump, assumed a midfield role racing 4 to 5Ls away on the fence, ridden out on straightening but only one paced and unable to close on leaders. |
7 | 8 | BIG PROFIT (CJ169) | E Saint-Martin | B | Jumped OK, hampered twice in early running, soon shuffled back to last place on the turn, made up ground down the outside in the straight to finish nearest on the line. |
8 | 9 | NORDIC STAR (CH302) | D Whyte | TT | Awkwardly away, settled in mid-division 2 wide and 4 to 5Ls behind leader, checked and shifted out abruptly on the turn losing position, made limited progress in the straight. |
9 | 3 | SUPER HONEY (CE187) | M Du Plessis | -- | Quickly into stride, intentionally eased back to a midfield position, steadied on bend losing ground, gave little response when they sprinted and simply held ground in run to line. |
10 | 5 | STAR OF CHIU TON (CJ175) | W C Marwing | B/TT | No early pace, settled towards the rear 9Ls behind leaders after jumping, unable to quicken up in the straight, ran past beaten runners only. |
11 | 4 | SEIZE THE DAY (CJ152) | Y T Cheng | -- | Began well, initially tracked leaders in a forward position, lost ground when being checked on the turn, under pressure early on in the straight, never picked up and dropped out near 200 M. (Mucus.) |
12 | 7 | QUICK MONEY (CJ246) | M W Leung | B1 | Out in line, lacked early pace despite being ridden along, very green and steadied on two occasions in early stages, 3 wide turning in, dropped out at 300 M when hard run took toll. |
