Horse Name | Jockey | Gear | Comment |
1 | 2 | HEARTLINE (CJ330) | M Chadwick | CP-/B1/TT | Crossed from wide gate to flank pacesetter in 2nd at the 800 M, led soon after straightening, pushed out to hold a margin. |
2 | 1 | BULLISH GOLD (CJ291) | G Mosse | -- | Box-seated in 3rd about 2Ls off pace until home straight, gave best chase to the winner but never likely to poke to his head in front. |
3 | 13 | LUCKY RED (CJ059) | Y T Cheng | -- | Led by 1L on fence until the 600 M, headed soon after straightening and stayed on pretty well to comfortably hold 3rd in the straight. |
4 | 11 | TREASURE RAIDERS (CE049) | M Du Plessis | -- | Taken back from a wide gate, rearward and 7Ls behind turning in, stay on well from the rear for 4th. |
5 | 7 | FIRST BEAT (CK127) | J Victoire | TT1 | Midfield about 4Ls from the speed until straightening, one-paced to conclude with no real impression made on the leading trio. |
6 | 8 | SOARING RIVER (CK137) | B Doyle | SR | Worse than midfield at least 5Ls from the speed until the final third, kept on at the same pace to finish off, never dangerous. |
7 | 10 | MIGHTY SUN (CK058) | M W Leung | -- | Close up in 4th at the 800 M, slipped out of contention in the straight having been suited by being close to the pace in a leader-dominated race. |
8 | 6 | TOY STORY (CJ217) | W C Marwing | -- | 3-wide with cover in mid-division about 4Ls or 5Ls from the speed until home turn, outpaced thereafter. |
9 | 3 | ENCHANTED (CE065) | K C Leung | B/TT- | 3-back on the rails about 4Ls behind leaders through to home straight, yielded ground inside the final section. |
10 | 4 | ACHILLES OF TROY (CJ190) | O Doleuze | TT | Caught quite wide in places, 5Ls or so back in 10th through to home bend, steadily weakened out of the reckoning. (Questioned for poor performance.) |
11 | 9 | MAMMA MIA (CK053) | D Whyte | -- | No early speed from the wide gate, in rear at least 6Ls from the leaders, never on terms. |
12 | 5 | HAPPY WIN (CJ239) | J Winks | -- | 4-back the rails and always worse than midfield at least 5Ls from the speed, petered out in the straight. |
13 | 12 | GALACTIC TACTIC (CH095) | C W Wong | -- | Worse than midfield at first and shuffled back to 8Ls last off final bend, soon beaten. |
14 | 14 | MASTER GREEN (CJ104) | S K Sit | V | Around midfield but caught 4-wide no cover for most of back straight and circle, wide trip took its toll in the homestretch. |
