At declaration time, C Y Ho was declared as the rider of both REAL FIT and STAR OF WAI BO. It was established that C Y Ho had a firm commitment to ride STAR OF WAI BO. As such, the Stewards permitted K C Ng to be substituted as the rider of REAL FIT. For this declaration error, Trainer A S Cruz was fined $2,000. DIAMOND MASTER bounded in the air at the start and lost ground. MR RIGHT began only fairly. EVERYONE'S CHOICE began awkwardly and then despite being ridden along in the early stages failed to muster speed. From a wide barrier, ST YAZIN was shifted across behind runners in the early stages. Making the turn near the 700 Metres, TRAVEL NUMBER ONE was awkwardly placed close to the heels of STAR OF WAI BO. Rounding the Home Turn, ST YAZIN was awkwardly placed close to the heels of TRAVEL NUMBER ONE when being positioned to obtain running to the inside of that horse. Throughout the race, STAR OF WAI BO and TARZAN I AM travelled wide and without cover. After the race, an endoscopic examination was conducted on TRENDIFUL at the request of Trainer C W Chang. The Veterinary Surgeon reported that this examination showed a substantial amount of blood in the horse's trachea. Before being allowed to race again, TRENDIFUL will be subjected to an official veterinary examination. A veterinary inspection of DIAMOND MASTER immediately following the race did not show any significant findings. MODERN FORTUNE and SPITFIRE were sent for sampling.
