1 | 10 | OYSTER (CL146) | W M Lai | P/TT | Quickly into stride. Took seat behind leaders from 800M. Ideal position to strike in the straight. Battled determinedly to prevail near the post. |
2 | 4 | TRACK LIGHTNING (M029) | T Angland | B/H1 | Pressed early but trapped wide first turn. Parked 2-wide outside leader from the Rock. Every chance in the straight and ran on strongly. Just failed to repel the winner close home. |
3 | 6 | CHATER POWER (CG312) | C Y Ho | B/TT | In leading section on fence to home straight. Kept on well but lacked the finishing touch of the front pair final stages. |
4 | 8 | LUCKY RECORD (CL429) | M L Yeung | TT | Slow to begin. Improved gradually along the fence and reached midfield at the Rock. Shifted out and found clear run 300M. Finished off the race satisfactorily. |
5 | 2 | SMART CHOICE (CK368) | H W Lai | B/TT | Taken to 2-wide at rear. Swung wide and was 7Ls down on straightening. Covered good ground home straight. |
6 | 5 | BRILLIANT ONE (CG212) | W C Marwing | -- | Towards rear on fence to home straight. Made steady headway to the line. |
7 | 9 | SUPER CAGA (CK054) | Y T Cheng | B | Hard ridden early but failed to muster. Travelled wide and without cover in midfield back straight. Progressed to 3-wide behind leaders home turn but couldn't sustain final 200M. |
8 | 11 | GRANDFIELD (CJ250) | G Cheyne | B | 2-wide towards rear to home straight. Made up minor ground late. |
9 | 12 | RACING LEGEND (CK390) | C K Tong | B/TT2 | Ahead of midfield on fence to home straight. Couldn't turn up a notch when the race got serious and weakened final 100M. |
10 | 1 | MY TIME (CJ310) | D Whyte | -- | 2-wide ahead of midfield early and middle stages. Switched 5-wide turning into home. Failed to respond when asked. |
11 | 3 | MULTIPROUD (CL301) | J Lloyd | TT | Shaken up early but insufficient speed to cross. Ended up 3-wide without cover at midfield back straight. Never progressed from there. |
12 | 7 | EN MASSE (CL398) | D Beadman | B | 2-wide at midfield early. Severely checked to behind midfield from 1000M. Similar position home turn. Ran on fairly top of home straight. Got traffic inside 150M. |
