1 | 13 | PENANG HALL (T062) | K C Leung | B | Handily placed 4th, 4L off the leaders early. Smoked the pipe until 300m before beginning a run. Tackled leader at 200m and kicked clear late, easily in under full riding late. |
2 | 3 | CITRON SPIRIT (T286) | N Callan | SR-/H/XB | Midfield, on the fence early. Wider on the turn looking for a run. Came home solidly. Ran strongly from 150m, nabbing 2nd in the last 20m. |
3 | 4 | CHEERFUL BOY (V019) | H T Mo | CP/TT | Pushed forward early to set pace in a group of 3 horses, 4L clear of the rest. Tackled by winner 200m. Paddling late, but had just enough in the tank to hold 3rd by the barest margin. |
4 | 11 | ENERGETIC CLASS (T082) | K Teetan | H/TT | Began well, but eased back early and eventually settled worse than midfield. Wider on the turn, and produced a strong run to the line late. |
5 | 6 | ROYAL PERFORMER (V405) | O Doleuze | H | Towards the rear of the field early, on the fence. Ran well in the straight, and picked off plenty of horses in the run home. |
6 | 14 | CLUB LIFE (P309) | M L Yeung | XB/B2 | Cruised forward and settled around midfield, 1 off the fence. Ran solidly, but slightly 1 paced in the straight and swamped late. |
7 | 9 | BEAUTY FLARE (V240) | M Chadwick | CP/TT | Cruised across from the wide draw to settle midfield, 2-3 wide. 1 paced in straight, and no threat. |
8 | 12 | MAGNETISM (V114) | C Y Ho | B/TT | Dropped back early to sit at the tail of the field. Checked and badly off heels when horse in front broke down 750m. Ran solidly without threatening in the straight. |
9 | 5 | GO BEAUTY GO (V316) | H N Wong | H | Taken up early and raced forward with breakaway group, slightly keen. Didn't have much left in the tank in the straight, and faded out from 350m. |
10 | 7 | EASY HEDGE (T409) | B Prebble | B/TT1 | Dropped back early to sit in the last couple at the back. Only fair in the straight. |
11 | 2 | ULTIMATE GLORY (S235) | H W Lai | -- | Bounded on jumping, jockey lost iron and got back to tail of the field. Never involved. |
12 | 10 | LOOK ERAS (V123) | U Rispoli | B | Taken forward early, to sit with breakaway leaders, 3 wide no cover. Only settled to a trailing position at 900m. Use up, and had nothing left in the straight. Jockey questioned. |
13 | 1 | ISHVARA (S015) | Z Purton | B/TT | Stumbled on jumping and got back worse than midfield, 3-4 wide limited cover. Never in it. Vet – Roarer. |
PU | 8 | SUPER SIXTEEN (V327) | J Moreira | TT | Broke down at 750m. |
