Horse Name | Jockey | Gear | Comment |
1 | 2 | PACKING FRIEND (CK109) | D Whyte | -- | Enjoyed all the favours tracking the leader on the fence, maintained the inside running in the home straight and never looked in doubt. |
2 | 4 | SOMETHING SPECIAL (CJ014) | W C Marwing | CP | Travelled worse than midfield, 2 deep with cover. Was stoked up after the 500m, and rounding the home turn came widest. Closed off soundly. |
3 | 12 | FORTUNE PUG (CK045) | M W Leung | SR | Parked about 3 back along the paint. Shifted out near the 300m, and ran an honest race to the wire. |
4 | 11 | DR WELL (CD165) | T H So | -- | Rolled forward to lead along the rails. Maintained a fair gallop to the finish. |
5 | 5 | RED RULER (CH198) | O Doleuze | V/TT | Camped 3 back 1 off with cover. Peeled out rounding the home turn but didn't show any turn of foot. |
6 | 6 | ENCOSTA DON (CH305) | B Prebble | B | Settled midfield 1 off with cover. Kept on one paced in the run to the line. |
7 | 10 | ROCKET AND GOLD (CH015) | C W Wong | B/TT | Travelled on the fence towards the rear of the field. Kept to the inside in the straight but never ran on. |
8 | 1 | GALLANT GALLOP (CL080) | Z Purton | TT | Settled behind midfield,1 off with cover. Failed to quicken in the home straight. |
9 | 3 | STRIKING MASCOT (CH154) | M Chadwick | B/TT | Slow to begin settling with the backmakers, 1 off with cover. Made no impression in the home straight. |
10 | 8 | BOLD CHAMPION (CG127) | H W Lai | V | Used plenty of gas after being caught wide early to go forward and take up equal leading duties mid race, tired from bend. |
11 | 7 | KINGSTON MARBLE (CE244) | W M Lai | B | Had to do some early work to cross and race settle outside the leader near the 1200m. Took up a trailing position 1 off midrace, was checked near the furlong and faded soon after. |
12 | 9 | PACIFIC ALLIANCE (CC230) | M L Yeung | V | Blew the start and after trailing the field was never a factor. |
