1 | 12 | SPEED OF LIGHT (CC333) | S K Sit | TT | Travelled midfield early before sliding forward mid race to camp on the back of the speed. Was always posted 3-wide without cover. Put under pressure early in the straight and kept whacking away to gain the upper hand late. |
2 | 8 | DECAGONAL (CH244) | Z Purton | B/TT | Worked forward to settle outside the leader. Hit the front after the 400 M but came up short after having every possible hope. |
3 | 7 | FRAMES DEPOT (CG118) | B Prebble | B | Allowed to settle behind midfield, 3 deep with cover. Drifted out after the 400 M, and ran on well late for 3rd. |
4 | 4 | MASTER MASTER (CH144) | O Doleuze | V1 | Was taken back in the early stages and settled in last position. Rolled out to be widest early in the straight and let down well, closing off soundly. |
5 | 10 | NOBLE TWINS (CH257) | D Whyte | B | Travelled 3 back the fence. Peeled out early in the straight, no excuses. |
6 | 9 | ELEPHANT STAR (CH323) | W M Lai | B | Raced 1 out 1 back. Had every chance. |
7 | 6 | KINGSTON TEMPLE (CH234) | K C Leung | B | Positioned 3 back, 2 deep with cover. Raced dourly in the run home. |
8 | 11 | FILEBO (CE214) | H W Lai | B | Travelled close to midfield, 1 off with cover. Struck some traffic problems near the 300 M and in the run to the line could not be ridden out. |
9 | 3 | WINNING AHEAD (CJ018) | K T Yeung | TT | Speared out of the gates then drifted back to settle in a handy position, 3 deep with cover. Plugged away in the straight. |
10 | 1 | NATURAL FATCHOY (CG282) | G Mosse | TT | Raced in 2nd last position, 2-wide with cover. Was found wanting over the final stages. |
11 | 2 | SUPER FAMILY (CJ153) | T H So | B | Tracked the leader along the fence. Went for a narrow run along the rail early in the straight however was held up and checked when disappointed for running. Didn't recover fully after that point. (See Racing Incidents.) |
12 | 13 | TIMBER CITY (CC031) | M L Yeung | B | Ridden along at the start and found the lead along the fence in the early stages. Was overhauled at the 400 M and was a spent force inside the furlong. |
13 | 5 | ME THE BEST (CJ158) | Y T Cheng | B | Slow to begin and settled behind midfield the fence. Not likely. |
