1 | 10 | MARVEL HERO (T311) | K Teetan | -- | OK away, dropping back early to sit near the rear of the field, on the rail. Took the short cut on the rails rounding the turn, before coming wider early in straight. Ran fastest in the straight to steal it right on the line. |
2 | 7 | JOYFUL MOMENTS (T134) | N Callan | -- | Bumped on jumping and pressed forward to be handily placed early, before dropping back towards midfield 1000m. Got in front at 250. Ran steadily and looked to have it before won, before being caught right on the line. |
3 | 9 | DIAMOND KING (S347) | Y T Cheng | V/TT | Began well and taken forward to be early leader, before allowing to be crossed 1000m and settling 3rd. Ran steadily to the line in the straight, before weakening late. Just held 3rd. |
4 | 2 | RADIANT BUNNY (S418) | Z Purton | -- | Began well, but only cruised forward early to be midfield, 3 wide. Came wider on the turn and ran strongly in the straight. Raced tight at 200m, but kicked well to the line and was running down 3rd late. |
5 | 13 | G-ONE BO BO (S374) | J Moreira | -- | Pushed forward early to be handily placed in 4th, on the rail. Raced tight when aiming to push forward at the top of the straight, and briefly on heels. Ran OK to the line, but ran away from whip and weakening late. |
6 | 12 | SUPER FLUKE (T382) | C Schofield | B | Fairly away and found a position midfield, on the fence. Badly held up in the straight until the 200m when coming wider. Ran on steadily when clear and finished off well. |
7 | 4 | PEOPLE'S KNIGHT (T305) | T Berry | H/XB | Slow away and elected to drop back early to sit worse than midfield, 3 wide. Came wide on the turn and ran to the line steadily with minimal urging. |
8 | 11 | GLENEALY PRIZE (T181) | K C Leung | B1 | Keen early when steadied to find cover in midfield, 1 off the fence. Raced keen down the back straight. Plugged on steadily in the straight, but never threatened. |
9 | 5 | NONE OTHER (S349) | K C Ng | B/TT | Pushed forward from the wide draw to eventually share the lead, 1 off the fence. Faded out from the 350m, and eased across the line late. |
10 | 1 | SEE ME NOW (V171) | H W Lai | TT1 | Not pressed early, and allowed to settle towards the rear of the field, 1 off the fence. Came very wide on the turn and ran on fairly, without threatening the first half of the field. |
11 | 3 | VICTORY FOLLOW ME (V182) | B Prebble | SR1 | Bumped early, and unsettled when being steadied back to sit at the rear of the field, 1 off the fence. Only 1 paced to the line. |
12 | 8 | LAUGH OUT LOUD (P297) | K K Chiong | B | Pushed forward early from the inside draw to share the lead, 1 off the fence. Lead at the 400m, but never responded to pressure in the straight and not pushed out late. |
13 | 6 | FIVE UP HIGH (S276) | G Lerena | TT | Fractious in the barrier before bounding out and losing ground. Stuck at the back of the field, 3-4 wide with no cover. Race had been run by the turn, and only plugged away to the line with little urging in the straight. |
14 | 14 | STRIKING STAR (V015) | M L Yeung | H | Slightly tardy into stride, but pushed forward soon after to be handily placed in 5th, but tended to over race and stuck 3 wide with no cover from 800m. Fading before the turn, and dropped out in the straight, easing late. |
