Horse Name | Jockey | Gear | Comment |
1 | 8 | CALIFORNIA MOON (CK097) | B Prebble | TT | Disputed early pace on fence, clear by 1L turning for home and skipped 2Ls clear at the furlong pole, won unchallenged. |
2 | 11 | NOBLE CHOICE (CK186) | M Du Plessis | XB1 | Vied for the lead out 2-wide through first half, 1L back in 2nd off last turn, had little chance with the winner and just held 2nd. |
3 | 13 | GOUF (CJ227) | S K Sit | B/TT | Had a rails run about 3Ls off pace between 3rd and 5th through to final bend, kept on at the same pace in the straight and nearly got 2nd. |
4 | 9 | INVINCIBLEKINDNESS (CK253) | D Whyte | -- | Slowly away, recovered to race in midfield on rails 4Ls off pace at halfway, one-paced to conclude and never looked like placing. |
5 | 10 | GILDED FLIGHT (CH294) | K C Leung | B | With cover about 4Ls or 5Ls off pace in midfield through to final turn, remained a similar margin from the front. |
6 | 5 | ELITE SIXTY-SIX (CK085) | D Beadman | -- | Midfield or slightly worse about 5Ls off pace until home straight, a little closer at the furlong pole, just missed 4th place. (See Racing Incidents.) |
7 | 2 | CHATER POWER (CG312) | J Lloyd | B/TT | 3Ls back in 5th or 6th leaving back straight, lost ground on the circle and lost out on the battle for 4th place inside the final 50 M. |
8 | 4 | HO HAPPY (CK286) | Z Purton | -- | 6Ls off pace initially towards rear, 5Ls back and ridden along turning for home, flat effort. |
9 | 12 | MARIACHI (CH190) | K T Yeung | B/TT | 2Ls back in 4th or so down back straight, 3Ls down into home straight, very tame finish. |
10 | 3 | SPECIAL K (CK114) | W C Marwing | CP | Always worse than midfield, 5Ls off the pace at halfway, ceded further ground in the straight, said not to have handled conditions. |
11 | 6 | FAVOURITE SUPREME (CH203) | Y T Cheng | B2/TT | Slowest out and soon 7Ls last, never competitive and always detached from the main body of the field. |
12 | 7 | SUPER PEGASUS (CH141) | C K Tong | B/TT | 3-wide no cover vying for early lead, 1L back in 3rd at 800 M and 4Ls back and pressured off last turn, weakened further and eased down late on. |
13 | 1 | AMAZING CHOISIR (CH189) | J Winks | -- | Always rearward, 6Ls back in rear at the 800 M, lost plenty further ground in the straight, eased down final stages. |
