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.
