| 1 | 11 | HORACE'S HORSE (CB043) | S Dye | V | Jumped well. 2 wide within 2Ls from leader until straightening. Finished off strongly final 200 M and chased down leader final stages. Held off late charges by narrow margin for a close win. |
| 2 | 2 | THUNDER STORM (CA226) | Y T Cheng | B/H | Away well. 3 wide at least 2Ls off pace with cover. Pressured on bend to keep up with pace. 2Ls behind the lead inside 200 M. Quickened nicely in open ground to chase down the winner but found the goal too soon. |
| 3 | 9 | FORTUNE MAPLE (CA385) | E Saint-Martin | B/SR | Raced handy. 2Ls off pace on fence. Went on evenly early part of Straight. Made a late dash on the inside rail, kept on well but failed to match stride with top pair closing stages. |
| 4 | 8 | CONSTELLATION (CE025) | C Soumillon | B | Began slowly. Kept 3Ls from leader on the rail. Saved ground from fence entering Straight. Tried hard, but lacked an extra kick. Crowded closing stages, not ridden out to the line as it normally would. |
| 5 | 7 | WYNDAM PLENTY (CD356) | A Delpech | CP/TT | Great early speed to take the rail from the wide barrier. Attempted to make all. Failed to hold off the principals closing stages. Was crowded just prior to the winning post and was not ridden to the end. |
| 6 | 6 | WISDOM EXPRESS (CB377) | B Prebble | B | Mostly behind midfield. Checked at 600 M. Remained towards rear on straightening until switching wide final 300 M. Responded strongly and made some good ground to be closest at finish. |
| 7 | 12 | FREE WAY (CC279) | O Doleuze | B/H | Slow to begin. Remained rearward most of the race. Last few to enter Straight. Saved ground on fence until shifted out for better running. Ran on strongly final 200 M to make some late impression near finish. |
| 8 | 4 | SILLY BOY (CC094) | G Schofield | B-/TT- | Midfield. 2 wide 4 deep with cover. 7th to get on Straight. Kept on evenly in the closing stages but found no extra to stay in contention. |
| 9 | 3 | TURF GOLD (CD342) | H W Lai | -- | Jumped slowly and began awkwardly. 4Ls from the lead on fence upon straightening. Ran on nicely early part of Straight. Hit traffic and unable to stride freely inside 100 M. Not fully tested. |
| 10 | 1 | HEALTHY FRUITS (CC193) | D Whyte | B/TT | Broke well. Hard ridden to stay with pace. 3 wide in midfield around the bend. Shifted wider on straightening. Found nothing in Straight. Faded final 200 M. |
| 11 | 10 | FLASH MAC (CB220) | C Munce | V/TT | Kept rearward. Steadied at 600 M and unable to recover ground. Unable to quicken when placed under pressure. Lacked needed response in the Straight. Never a threat. (See Racing Incidents.) |
