Horse Name | Jockey | Gear | Comment |
1 | 9 | PACKING WINNER (CE334) | B Doyle | -- | Jumped well form his wide draw and shifted across for an easy lead, dictated at a steady pace before galloping on strongly inside 200 M to hold off his rivals. |
2 | 11 | MR MEDICI (CK218) | Y T Cheng | -- | Handily placed in 4th and had a smooth run throughout, challenged strongly inside 400M to get within half length of the winner who had got first run on him. |
3 | 6 | THUMBS UP (CK005) | B Prebble | -- | Behind mid-division and not helped by the steady tempo, waited with till 350M, showed good acceleration to come through between horses for 3rd. |
4 | 2 | VIVA PATACA (CG096) | W C Marwing | H | Out in the back early on, 6Ls behind off the bend and produced a sustained effort towards the outside. Never nearer. |
5 | 7 | COLLECTION (CK217) | D Beadman | TT | Held up 3-wide in midfield and raced a shade keen at times, made good progress down the outside from 400M but turned flat in the closing stages. |
6 | 3 | FELLOWSHIP (CG292) | K C Leung | TT | Taken back from the wide draw and raced in the rear as expected, had 6Ls to make up on straightening but didn't have a clear crack until 150M, finished well. |
7 | 1 | GOOD BA BA (CE201) | O Doleuze | TT | Well covered in mid-division, driven 450M, kept on but never looked like getting involved. |
8 | 5 | SIGHT WINNER (CJ049) | D Whyte | -- | Chased leader one back and was ideally placed turning in, stayed on but not pace to challenge, eased close home. (Jockey reminded to ride out to the end.) |
9 | 4 | HAWKES BAY (CG064) | W Pike | XB | One out one back from leader, had every chance but couldn't sustain his effort, faded inside 200 M. |
10 | 8 | JACKPOT DELIGHT (CJ101) | Z Purton | -- | Jumped well, in touch not far off from leaders but could only keep on same pace in the run in. No impression. |
11 | 14 | NOBLE CONQUEROR (CG169) | C Williams | P | Always in last, 8Ls down turning in, not quicken and never looked likely from off the pace. |
12 | 12 | EXPRESS WIN (CJ042) | G Mosse | TT | In midfield 3-wide without cover throughout, never picked up in straight, eased when beaten inside 200M. (Jockey questioned.) |
13 | 10 | EYSHAL (CJ099) | J Winks | B/TT | Away awkwardly and gave others a big start, moved up along the fence to be 5Ls off the pace in midfield, run ended 200 M from home and weakened. |
14 | 13 | HELENE MASCOT (CJ164) | M Chadwick | XB/TT | Towards the rear on the inner, had 8Ls to make up passing 400 M, no response under pressure, soon beaten. |
