Comments

1SAMARKAND  C L Chau  (CP/TT)

Never far off from leaders, 4th on settling, worked into the race well passing 400M, challenged strongly for the lead 200M, gamely prevailed.
2LOVERO  Y L Chung  (TT)

Moved forward to be pressing leader, took over early straight, fought hard final 200M but couldn't hold off winner late, held on for 2nd in a photo.
3HAMERON  L Ferraris  (B-/TT)

Settled behind midfield 6-7Ls off a slow pace, brought wide on straightening then closed off nicely under top weight, nearest finish.
4EIGHTEEN PALMS  A Badel  (B/TT)

Tracked leaders in a slowly run race, held up briefly inside 400M, kept battling in the straight and was still in contention 100M from home, held by leaders late.
5IVY LEAGUE  K De Melo  (SR/XB/TT)

From wide draw switched off to race towards the rear in a slowly run race, 6Ls to make up 400M, finished off the race mildly but was always held by leaders.
6SO WE JOY  A Atzeni  (H/TT)

Shifted out at the start and was bumped, restrained to race in midfield, driven along 450M, was staying on mildly when held up behind leaders over final 100M. Could do better.
7JUNE PLANET  K Teetan  (TT)

Jumped fairly and settled at the rear further back than intended, little change at the turn, failed to make up appreciable ground in the straight. (Irregular Heart Rhythm.)
8GLORIOUS JOURNEY  M Chadwick  (TT1)

From wide draw taken back to near last for cover, raced keenly due to slow pace, made some progress final 300M but never a winning hope
9AMAZING DUCK  M F Poon  (CP)

Emerged as leader 1200M, set slow pace to straight, headed inside 300M then faded towards the finish.
10AESTHETICISM  H Bentley  (B)

From wide draw switched off to the rear, over 9Ls off the slow pace in middle stages, big task ahead 400M, made some late progress.

11GRATEFUL HEART  L Hewitson  (B-/TT)

Maintained a position ahead of midfield, close enough turning in but couldn't sustain run final 200M.
12SOLAR GOGO  B Thompson  (B1)

Jumped fairly, settled down midfield and had a ground saving trip, couldn't go on passing 300M, weakened to last.
