Horse Name | Jockey | Gear | Comment |
1 | 1 | LONGWAH SUPREME (M293) | O Doleuze | B/TT | Raced keenly in a 3-wide position ahead of midfield, quickened well under top weight inside 300M, swept to the front nearing 100M and drew clear. Impressive. |
2 | 2 | KING MOSSMAN (M266) | D Whyte | -- | Travelled strongly just behind leader, ideally placed to strike turning in, took over 250M, held every chance and only got picked off by the winner near 100M. |
3 | 4 | SUNNY FAY (M119) | D Beadman | H/XB/TT | Guided to a rearward position 5Ls off the pace after a sluggish start, stayed on steadily final 300M to go 3rd near line. |
4 | 3 | TOUCH GO (CL254) | B Prebble | -- | Held up in midfield, loomed and looked threatening behind leaders 300M out, kept on but turned one paced final 100M, lost 3rd near the finish. |
5 | 9 | TALLEY CLOSE (M280) | M L Yeung | -- | Dropped back on jumping from draw 14, settled near the rear 5-6Ls off the pace, no clear run to 200M, finished off well when shifted into clear. Encouraging first up. |
6 | 7 | ALADDIN PRINCE (M249) | C Y Ho | -- | Positioned along the inside behind midfield, kept on final 400M without getting to the leaders. |
7 | 5 | LONGWAH RISING (CJ297) | T Angland | -- | Never far off in the group chasing the pace, held up a bit early straight but responded only fairly when shifted out into clear. |
8 | 11 | TEAM WORK (CH276) | M W Leung | B | Reserved at the back of the field, ran on only fairly turning for home, never factored. |
9 | 10 | CHARMGOLD (CK002) | G Cheyne | B | Caught 4-wide in midfield, kept on at the same pace to 200M, weakened. |
10 | 8 | OSCAR WONDER (M301) | K C Leung | -- | Held up towards the rear 6-7Ls off the pace, last turning in, not quickened when put to pressure. |
11 | 13 | SURFER BOY (CL306) | K C Ng | B2 | Driven forward and crossed to the lead along the fence nearing 800M, headed 300M out, no extra and weakened rapidly over the final stages. |
12 | 14 | LUCKY TURBO (M231) | H W Lai | -- | Up with the pace 3-wide but had little left turning in, shifted in under pressure 200M, weakened rapidly. |
13 | 12 | PURE FORCE (M298) | Y T Cheng | -- | Well covered in midfield, similar position making the turn, didn't pick up in straight, eased final 100M. |
14 | 6 | HEARTLAND (M332) | J Lloyd | CP1 | Travelled keenly towards the rear, turned 3-wide making the home turn, found nothing when asked, soon behind. |
