Comments

1FLAGSHIP SHINE  D Whyte  (SW)

Broke well, crossed from wide alley to race outside leader, helped by even sections early, right there and leveled up turning, dashed clear and kept a healthy margin in run to the line.

2SUDDEN THUNDER  R Fourie  (B/TT1)

Taken down to rails from a tricky draw, raced behind midfield 6ls off top end, saved ground on rails turning in, clear final 300m and closed soundly but unable to make real impression on winner.

3GOLDEN SCALPEL  H W Lai

Took an ideal spot on leaders back, enjoyed a nice sit in mid-section, right there turning, kept up effort to hold 3rd.

4ADORATION  C Y Lui  (B)

Began smartly as usual, crossed to lead from a wide gate, steady first section but then set pace to suit, overhauled soon after turning but stuck on as often does to make frame.

5KING'S PACT  M L Yeung  (TT)

Awkwardly away, hampered in early scrimmage, 7-8ls back on rails in mid-section, took inside run sin straight and closed best of rest to be nearest on line.

6POLYMER WIN  T Angland  (SW/XB)

Landed an ideal position 1 out 1 back, travelled well throughout, 2ls down turning and looked a place chance at 300m, unable to sustain effort inside 200m but kept on evenly.

7GREEN MANNER  M Chadwick  (H/TT)

Landed a spot in midfield, 4-5ls back in running line, enjoyed a nice run in the middle stages, in traffic turning but only made fair progress when clear.

8HO IN ONE  U Rispoli  (SW)

Tucked in just off midfield, 6ls back in 2 wide line, fair run to bend but back in traffic turning, offered no real run on over final 200m.

9VITAL GOLD  T Clark  (SR-/B1)

Unable to get closer than 3 wide around midfield, 5-6ls back with cover, produced 4 wide turning but didn't have extra gear to threaten and just whacked away.

10CALLING WITH LOVE  B Prebble  (H)

Drifted back and was checked early, settled behind midfield 6-7ls away 3 wide with cover, made a run 4 and 5 wide turning, lacked usual close and peaked at 200m. (lame next day)

11WINNING APEX  O Doleuze  (B-)

Ended up 8ls or more away at rear, racing 2 and 3 wide, still plenty to do turning, came wider but only managed to pass a few tired ones in straight.

12STREET CAT  W M Lai  (SW/TT)

Tardy into stride, mustered to settle in midfield on rails 5ls back, enjoyed a soft trip in mid-section, angled out at 400m but offered little fight and soon folded.

13GOOD GOOD VIEW  Z Purton  (TT)

Allowed to drift back from a wide gate, raced intractably at tail and hung badly rounding bend, never travelling and was unable to play any real part. (see racing incidents)

14DRAGON BACHELOR  Y T Cheng  (B)

Posted 3 wide without cover in midfield, worked hard 3-4ls back on bend, struggling before turning and dropped right out.
