Horse No 1 CALIFORNIATOTALITY (H418) B Avdulla Shortly after the start was bumped on the hindquarters and became unbalanced.
Sent for sampling post-race.
Horse No 2 CALIFORNIA BANNER (J132) Y L Chung Bumped shortly after the start and from a wide barrier was then was shifted across behind runners in the early stages.
When the pace steadied after the 700 Metres commenced to race keenly and was crowded near the 650 Metres.
Approaching the 500 Metres was tightened between MISTER DAPPER and SMASHING EXPRESS which was taken out by TRIPLE BLISS (K C Leung).
K C Leung was advised to exercise more care.
Horse No 3 CORLEONE (J426) H Bowman Between the 300 Metres and the 100 Metres raced tight between DRAGON FOUR SEAS and SOARING BRONCO (C Y Ho) which endeavoured to improve into a narrow run between CORLEONE and CALIFORNIATOTALITY.
Near the 100 Metres CALIFORNIATOTALITY (B Avdulla) then shifted in, crowding SOARING BRONCO and contributing to CORLEONE being steadied.
Both C Y Ho and B Avdulla were reprimanded.
When questioned, H Bowman stated that with his mount stepping up in distance, he was asked to take up a more forward position than at its first race start.
He added after being steadied to avoid DRAGON FOUR SEAS when the pace of the event slackened after the 700 Metres, CORLEONE then hung in when placed under pressure in the Home Straight and raced tight from the 300 Metres to the 100 Metres between DRAGON FOUR SEAS and SOARING BRONCO.
A veterinary inspection immediately following the race found that horse to have a small abrasion to the right front fetlock.
Horse No 4 JUMBO FORTUNE (G195) K Teetan Raced keenly in the early stages.
Sent for sampling post-race.
Horse No 5 DRAGON FOUR SEAS (J317) M F Poon When questioned regarding his riding from the 800 Metres and the reason the pace slackening noticeably from that point, M F Poon stated that after being challenged in the lead by CALIFORNIATOTALITY, his mount relaxed making the first turn.
He said whilst he did not excessively restrain his mount, he encouraged it to settle during the middle stages to allow it to have a finishing effort in the Home Straight.
He added he was of the opinion that when he allowed his mount to relax, it did ease the tempo more than he would have liked.
After considering his explanation, the Stewards advised Jockey Poon that he should ensure, whenever possible, that he does not reduce the tempo too quickly so as to avoid disadvantaging other runners positioned behind his mount.
Horse No 6 MISTER DAPPER (H376) L Hewitson Despite being ridden along in the early stages failed to show sufficient pace to hold a more forward position and when caught wide was then shifted across to obtain cover behind SPECIAL HEDGE near the 1200 Metres.
MISTER DAPPER raced keenly for some distance thereafter.
Horse No 7 BEAUTIFUL WIN (J250) K De Melo Shortly after the start was crowded between CALIFORNIATOTALITY and CALIFORNIA BANNER which shifted out and away from CORLEONE.
From a wide barrier was then shifted across behind runners in the early stages.
When the pace of the event steadied approaching the 650 Metres was checked when crowded between MISTER DAPPER and CALIFORNIA BANNER which, after improving to the outside of SMASHING EXPRESS, was then taken out when SMASHING EXPRESS was checked and shifted to the outside of TRIPLE BLISS.
As the Stewards found the incident was attributable to the pace of the event steadying, no action was taken.
Horse No 8 BEER PALACE (H361) M Chadwick As the start was effected stood flat-footed and as a consequence was slow to begin.
BEAR PALACE then reared shortly after and lost further ground.
The barrier manners of BEER PALACE were considered unacceptable.

A veterinary inspection immediately following the race did not show any significant findings.
Horse No 9 CHATER GOLD (J004) H Bentley After travelling a short distance H Bentley was obliged to re-position his foot in the stirrup iron.

Recap by phillip woo
Californiatotality worked forward three-deep from gate 12 to sit outside the lead, poked his head in front 300m out and put up a brave effort to salute. Jumbo Fortune loomed but couldn't pick up the winner after a one-off trip from behind midfield. It was another honest performance. Post-time favourite Soaring Bronco stayed on nicely near the inside for third after getting held up until the 200m following a handy run. Alp's Affection kept on well for fourth after a prominent run on the fence. He proved a career best fourth last start was not a fluke. Punted late Dragon Four Seas weakened late to finish next best after easily finding the front from gate eight. It was an OK effort with a step up to 1,600m. Corleone was held up for a majority of the straight and then hampered 100m out after tracking the leader on the fence. Early favourite Chater Gold never produced a yelp after landing a one-off spot with cover from just worse than midfield. He couldn't back up a near win last start.
