1 | 12 | SEA TREASURE (CD335) | D Beadman | B/TT | Settled patiently behind midfield 6-7Ls from the leader, had an easy trip along the fence, eased out to challenge on straightening, made a strong rally and swept past the 2nd 50 M out for an impressive victory. |
2 | 5 | AMPLE GAINS (CE021) | D Whyte | B/TT | Away with them, unable to cross from outside and was caught wide on the first turn, settled about 4Ls behind leader, driven to lead entering 150 M, kept on but was just caught over final stages. |
3 | 10 | LUCKY CHAMPION (CD178) | H W Lai | -- | Eased back after start, had a relaxed trip near the rear 9Ls back, taken wide and niggled along on bend, dashed well down the outside but the first two were too good. |
4 | 6 | RICH DRAGON (CG079) | C K Tong | V-/PC1 | Pressed forward to race alongside leader under a moderate tempo, drew clear on straightening, looked a chance but gradually weakened inside 150 M. |
5 | 9 | ONE TOUCH (CH199) | B Prebble | B | Broke nicely, parked into a slot in mid-division 4-5Ls behind leader, remained there on turning, made even progress down the straight under hands and heels. (Dropped whip.) |
6 | 2 | SUPER PEGASUS (CH141) | O Doleuze | TT | Quickly into stride, taken to a midfield spot about 3Ls off the pace, improving on the turn, struggled to pick up when they dashed and just held ground in straight. |
7 | 11 | SUPER FIGHTER (CE167) | B Doyle | V- | Reasonable jump, rolled forward to race just behind leaders on rails, saved ground throughout, found little under pressure and ran home one-paced. |
8 | 14 | WARM EMBRACES (CJ162) | M Du Plessis | -- | Began with rest, parked into a 3-wide slot behind midfield 6Ls off the pace, urged along turning in, struggled to pick up and beat tired runners only. |
9 | 7 | SOUNDS FANTASTIC (CH146) | S K Sit | TT | Taken back on jumping, raced as the back-marker 11Ls behind leader for the major part of the race, still well back on turning, came challenge on extreme outside but ran home one-paced. |
10 | 8 | VISIONARIO (CJ095) | E Saint-Martin | B- | Lost ground after an awkward start, settled towards the rear with cover, tracked nicely to turn, switched wide for a run but failed to muster anything in straight. Disappointing run. |
11 | 3 | MAN IN THE MIRROR (CH058) | K T Yeung | -- | Moderate beginning, soon taken up a spot in the rear far back from the leader, 10Ls away in mid-section, pushed along on turn, found little under pressure and just plugged away to line. |
12 | 13 | KINGIFLY (CG020) | W C Marwing | P1/TT | Fair start, pressed on early to race in a forward position just off the pace, 3-wide without cover for most of the trip, under pressure soon into straight, weakened late after hard run. |
13 | 1 | CAGA BOY (CG060) | P H Lo | -- | A fair jump, mustered enough speed to secure a position on rails 3-4Ls back, had a ground-saving trip but no extra to offer after straightening, gradually weakened towards the line. |
14 | 4 | INDUSTRIAL MARVEL (CG188) | C W Wong | -- | Worked across from an outside barrier to lead at steady tempo, didn't relax with a runner travelling on outside, under pressure turning home, dropped out rapidly from 300 M and finished tailed out. |
