| 1 | 1 | CHEERFUL MASTER (CE309) | K T Yeung | B/TT | Began with them, landed the box seat 1 out 3Ls back, had a nice run and travelled kindly to bend, switched out on turning in, took over passing 250 M, went on with job to hol challengers off in good style. (See Racing Incidents.) |
| 2 | 8 | NORTHERN HERO (CG172) | M Nunes | -- | Out evenly but took a hold from a wide alley, forced to settle in midfield without cover 4-5Ls back 3 wide, did work to bend and still 4Ls down at 400 M, steadily improved to be right in mix at 200 M, found winner too good. |
| 3 | 9 | SUPER SNIPPETS (CG217) | O Doleuze | -- | Lacked speed as usual, posted 3 wide behind midfield, 6Ls off lead, had a good trail into race but still 5Ls back 9th turning in, came to middle and closed race off well to steal 3rd late. |
| 4 | 2 | CIRCULAR MACHINE (CG049) | G Mosse | B | Average jump and bumped early, regathered and ended up in midfield running line 5Ls away, had a good sit before easing out on turning, steadily improved just peaking on run at 100 M and lost a place late. |
| 5 | 4 | WISE LOVER (CE095) | D Whyte | B | Moderate jumpout, recovered to hold a midfield role 5Ls back on rails, had a quiet trip and saved ground to bend, pushed into clear and made run with placegetters, run closed at 100 M and just stuck on fairly thereafter. |
| 6 | 14 | HONEST TREASURE (CE200) | F Coetzee | B/TT | Began with first few, pushed on and landed leaders back, had a cheap trip and right there 1L back leaving circle, pushed along turning in, didn't get much room early on in straight but closed only fairly when clear. |
| 7 | 10 | QUEST FOR LOVE (CE242) | K L Chui | B | Lacked dash from outset, settled behind midfield on the rails 7Ls off front runners, well back in 10th on turning weaved through pack switching right out in straight, kept closing to be nearest on the line. |
| 8 | 13 | SPEEDING MOLLY (CC227) | M W Leung | SR/TT | Began in line, drifted back from an awkward alley, ended up next to last 2 wide 10Ls from them, still had field to pass on bend, wound up last 300 M and passed a few horses despite shifting out. Did best work late. |
| 9 | 7 | THUNDER DANCING (CG250) | D Nikolic | B- | Well enough to leave gates, pressed on to race outside of leader, raced 1L back with even tempo, crept closer on bend, made run at 300 M but couldn't find extra gear and run ended final furlong. |
| 10 | 6 | FERRO BEAU (CG244) | Y T Cheng | TT | Lost ground at start when bumped, overraced when setting down behind midfield, raced 8Ls back in 2 wide line, in traffic on turning, in clear from 300 M but failed to run on just plugging steadily to line. |
| 11 | 3 | WEALTHY TREASURE (CC270) | E Saint-Martin | -- | Bounced out, held leaders back but unable to keep spot, raced 4Ls back on rails thereafter, saved ground on bend and 2-3Ls back turning in, stuck on at 1 pace when running presented and faded late. |
| 12 | 5 | DASHING THUNDER (CD080) | C W Wong | B | Awkwardly away, soon in rearward division on rails, didn't use much racing 10Ls off leaders throughout, well back with field to beat on bend, switched to inside and made some ground but set too great a task. |
| 13 | 11 | DELIGHTFUL WIN (CC154) | H W Lai | -- | No dash from gates, restrained to rear 3 wide 9Ls off leaders, tracked evenly on bend and switched 4 wide turning in, lacked a response when pressured a simply trailed field in straight. |
| 14 | 12 | CHOICE AND CHANCE (CA381) | W M Lai | B | Even jump, showed plenty of toe soon after to press on and take up running, kept on at an even tempo 1L clear in front, held some advantage turning in, found nothing under pressure and dropped out tamely. |
