Comments

1HAPPEE GIFT  D Whyte  (XB/H)

Allowed an easy lead early but was taken on passing 800M, responded well under hands and heels riding in straight and always found enough to hold off the persistent runner-up.
2PERFECT GEAR  D Beadman

Had to overcome a wide barrier, vied for lead 2-wide, kept on well inside 300M but was always held by the winner.
3HIGH RETURN  Y T Cheng  (B)

Taken across behind runners after the start but proved difficult to settle in early stages, raced in last 5-6Ls off the steady pace, switched to clear 300M, made good progress from the rear and was nearest on the line.
4TRULLI  C W Wong  (B/TT)

Slowly away and held up towards the rear, driven 400M and made steady progress in straight for a non-threatening 4th.
5BEJEWELED  O Doleuze

Broke well then dropped in behind midfield, challenged wide into straight, ran on well final 200M for some late impression.
6WINNING EDGE  W C Marwing  (B1)

Slowly away, towards the rear early but crept closer to a midfield position in middle stages, kept to inside throughout, ran on one paced inside 300M.
7CONFUCIUS CLASSIC  M Chadwick  (SW/TT)

Obtained a handy position behind leaders after a slightly slow start, switched away from the fence approaching 400M, had every chance turning in but couldn't produce a change of pace to challenge seriously.
8GO FAY FAY  G Cheyne

Given a waiting ride, placed towards the rear 6Ls off leaders, last turning in but ran on well when asked, late headway inside 200M. (Jockey and Trainer questioned re riding position.)
9CHARMGOLD  H W Lai  (TT)

With early leaders to 1000M then taken back to midfield 3-wde, had an uninterrupted run in straight, kept on till finding no extra final 100M.
10WARM EMBRACES  W M Lai  (B1)

Close enough in midpack, well covered but found no extra pace when pressed inside 300M.
11MAELSTROM  K C Leung

With leaders early but dropped back to midfield, unable to tuck in and was wide throughout, driven 350M but no progress. (Jockey was told his riding lacked necessary judgement and initiative.)
12CIRCUIT HERO  C K Tong  (B/TT)

Pushed along early, tracked leaders but struggled to keep up passing 400M, weakened rapidly 200M. (Bled 2nd time. Retired after racing.)
