Horse Name | Jockey | Gear | Comment |
1 | 2 | FLY ME TO THE MOON (CG104) | D Whyte | B | 4Ls back in 4th leaving back straight, closer turning for home, led about 250 M out, ridden out to hold a margin. |
2 | 5 | HIGH INTELLIGENT (CD317) | J Lloyd | B/TT | Leader's back on fence, 1L back in 2nd into straight, briefly led before being grabbed by winner 250 M out, kept on but couldn't lead again. |
3 | 4 | PENGLAI XIANZI (CK248) | M Chadwick | TT | Wide no cover throughout, keen when 5Ls down at first, closer and 4th into striaght, 1L back and every chance at 200 M, couldn't follow through. |
4 | 6 | CHEEKY LAD (CG198) | B Prebble | B | At least 6Ls behind in 10th or so at 1000 M, closer on straightening and looked a chance 200 M out when 2Ls down, run peaked. |
5 | 7 | SOHNA (CG183) | B Doyle | B/TT | 4-back the fence about 6Ls off early speed, 5Ls down at the last turn, finished off only fairly, found a few too good once again. |
6 | 9 | DIVINE KID (CK157) | W C Marwing | -- | Rearward at least 6Ls from the speed through to the last turn, recovered some late ground without genuinely threatening a place. |
7 | 11 | NAMJONG FIGHTERS (CG308) | Y T Cheng | -- | Worse than midfield at first, caught 5-wide no cover on the circle when 5Ls down, never likely to improve much further. |
8 | 8 | DANABAA (CH007) | K C Leung | V | Soon led on fence by 2Ls, headed shortly after straightening and soon wilted out of the picture. |
9 | 1 | CLOSERTOBELIEVING (CK263) | W Pike | -- | Taken back from wide gate, 8Ls adrift at the 1000 M, made up a little minor ground without looking remotely dangerous. |
10 | 12 | GREAT SHOW (CK001) | K W Leung | B- | Rearward at least 7Ls behind initial tempo, 4-wide no cover on the circle, kept chasing the majority of the field. |
11 | 14 | POTPOURRI (CK142) | M L Yeung | B/TT | Blew the start by about 4Ls, rearward at least 7Ls from the speed until home turn, never seriously in contention. |
12 | 13 | ROMANCING TAMAR (CK176) | H W Lai | B1/TT | 3-back the rails down back straight, struggling to lie up when 5Ls down off last turn, lost further ground on the run-in. |
13 | 3 | FORTUNE SPIRIT (CK102) | Z Purton | B1 | Midfield with cover about 5Ls off pace at halfway and closer but pressured off last turn, retreated very quickly thereafter. |
14 | 10 | RAISING SUN (CK154) | T H So | H- | 2-wide and 2Ls back in 2nd down the back straight, began to lose this proximity on the circle, weakened out rapidly. |
