1 | 2 | LEGENDARY DRAGON (N172) | Z Purton | -- | Set early pace, tracked leader entering back straight, ridden to challenge 300M out, led 150M and kept on strongly for a decisive success. |
2 | 8 | AMIGO (CK358) | A Suborics | B | Taken back to the rear about 6Ls from leader, came home strongly once a gap opened up nearing 200M, got up for 2nd near the finish. |
3 | 1 | HORSE GALORE (CL220) | M L Yeung | B | Driven early to find the lead, set even pace, fought on gamely inside 300M trying to fend off the eventual winner, headed 150M out, faded late and lost 2nd just before the line. |
4 | 7 | TURBO KING (CL320) | B Prebble | -- | Shuffled back to a rearward position passing 900M, ran on steadily inside 300M without troubling the winner, narrowly missed out on 3rd place. |
5 | 11 | GROOVY (CL401) | W C Marwing | -- | Slow to begin, assumed a rearward position along the fence, met troubling in running turning for home and didn't have much room until 100M, did well to finish 5th. |
6 | 3 | VOILE ROUGE (M343) | D Whyte | B/TT | Settled in midfield on rail, kept on one paced final 300M and was never a serious threat to leaders. |
7 | 5 | WINDICATOR POWER (CL424) | C Y Ho | TT | Held up near the rear 5Ls off the pace, swung 3-wide for home and pulled widest to challenge, made limited progress. |
8 | 9 | GOOD WORDS (CL371) | Y T Cheng | TT | Not far off the pace but was trapped wide for much of the race, never going the pace to challenge over final 300M, weakened final stages. |
9 | 4 | GIFT IS GIFT (M053) | O Doleuze | SR | Slowly away, raced a shade keen and was trapped a little wider than ideal, lacked the pace to put in an effective challenge in the straight, no threat inside 200M. |
10 | 10 | PRETTY ONE (CL418) | H W Lai | TT | Held up 2-wide in mid-division, pushed along 450M, checked near 200M and had difficulty obtaining clear run thereafter. |
11 | 6 | SKY MASCOT (CL267) | T Clark | B | Pushed along to track leader but had little left turning for home, weakened rapidly over final 200M. |
