No report.

Shortly after the start was bumped by ARMOUR WAR EAGLE and became unbalanced. A Badel reported that he was instructed to endeavour to obtain a position with cover.

He added he became held up for some distance thereafter before shifting to the outside of LUCKY BID near the 250 Metres where he was able to secure clear running. Trainer C H Yip confirmed the instructions were to ride the horse in a conservative manner to offset the outside barrier.
