Horse Name | Jockey | Gear | Comment |
1 | 8 | VICTORY MACHINE (V358) | C Wong | B/TT | Driven forward becoming leader from 1000M, set slow pace in front, ridden and kicked on well on straightening, did enough to hold off runner up final stages. |
2 | 7 | KING OPIE (B034) | G van Niekerk | CP | Tracked leaders on the inside, responded well on straightening and chased winner but always held. |
3 | 2 | RAGING BLITZKRIEG (B147) | T Angland | H | Restrained in midfield but no closer than 3-wide throughout, tried hard in straight, stayed on into 3rd 100M but couldn't reel in first pair. |
4 | 3 | KASI FARASI (B385) | A Badel | H1/TT | Steadied after the start and shifted across behind runners, in 10th spot turning for home, switched wide 350M, kept grinding on to go 4th near line. |
5 | 5 | FALCON TURBO (B164) | D Whyte | -- | Held up midfield, ran on mildly when asked from top of straight, couldn't get closer to leaders. |
6 | 1 | WINNING ENDEAVOUR (C048) | U Rispoli | H1/TT1 | Slow to begin, raced in the rear 6-7Ls off the slow pace, made some ground over final 300M but never close enough to challenge. |
7 | 11 | TOP SCORE (V357) | M Chadwick | B/TT | Settled down 3-wide behind midfield, driven 400M but failed to make appreciable ground, no impression. |
8 | 6 | SPEEDY KING (A391) | K C Leung | -- | Went forward and pressed leader on outside, challenged hard for the lead on straightening but peaked on its run 150M, weakened rapidly towards the line. |
9 | 12 | LUCKY GUY (T349) | W M Lai | TT | Crowded for room on jumping, recovered to race in midfield along the rail, ran on one-paced in straight and failed to look a winning chance. |
10 | 4 | KEY WITNESS (S212) | K Teetan | B/TT | From widest draw dropped back to race near the rear, widest into straight, passed a few tired runners late, no impression on leaders. |
11 | 9 | BIG FORTUNE (B220) | S De Sousa | CP-/V1 | Close up behind leaders, failed to respond to riding on straightening, eased when no chance late stages. (Jockey: may not have handled the yielding track conditions.) |
12 | 10 | CALLING THE SHOTS (B239) | H T Mo | B/TT | Chased leaders in a 3-wide spot without cover, weakened mid-straight, eased when well beaten final 100M. |
