| 1 | 12 | MIRACLE DRAGON (CD254) | S Dye | B | Slowly away, 3-wide no cover throughout, worse than midfield about 6Ls off pace before pressing on out wide from the 800 M to lead 300 M out, just hung on final 50 M. |
| 2 | 2 | MAIN ATTRACTION (CB218) | Y T Cheng | V | 2-wide and 6Ls off pace in 10th at 1000 M, headway on the circle to be 5-wide on straightening about 3Ls back in mid-division, ran on strongly late but post came a few strides too soon. |
| 3 | 5 | CROWNED GEM (CE056) | K T Yeung | B/TT | 4-back on fence in 9th about 5Ls off pace at the 900 M, about 4Ls and 3-wide taking final bend, strong run inside final 50 M to nick 3rd on the line. |
| 4 | 7 | ISLAND SUNRISE (CE276) | C K Tong | CP/XB1/TT- | Disputed early pace out wide, got in 2-wide and a neck 2nd at the 800 M, still right there at top of home straight and at 200 M, kept on dourly but lost 3rd on the line. |
| 5 | 11 | SWEETIE (CB036) | K S Yu | B/TT | One from rear on fence about 7Ls off pace at the 1000 M, with about 5Ls to make up entering straight, ran on well late to be nearest at finish. |
| 6 | 13 | BRAVERY LUCK (CE108) | M Nunes | -- | 2-wide and 3Ls back in 5th at 1000 M, similarly placed swinging for home, had his chance to place but always hanging in one-paced under pressure. |
| 7 | 9 | CHOSEN ONE (CD347) | S K Sit | B- | Handy position early, slipped back to 8th about 5Ls back out 2-wide at 900 M, 3Ls back in midfield turning for home, 1L down in 3rd at the 200 M, no extra late. |
| 8 | 1 | LIGHTNING MOUNT (CH082) | B Prebble | TT | 3-back on fence about 3Ls off speed in 6th at the 1000 M, wanted to hang in on the circle, had his chance to place but his run died final 150 M. |
| 9 | 14 | RAINBOW EXPRESS (CE144) | W M Lai | V | Had the box-seat position on fence 2Ls off speed in 3rd or 4th until home turn, didn't find much off the bit and no excuses. |
| 10 | 6 | FASTER FASTER (CG010) | F Coetzee | -- | 1L back in 3rd out 2-wide at the 1000 M, 2Ls down in 4th soon afterwards, still bang there when 3-wide off home bend but fizzled out final 200 M. |
| 11 | 8 | WIN FORTUNE (CB338) | M W Leung | B/SR | Ridden along to dispute an even early pace, half a length clear on the circle but headed by winner 300 M out, well beaten when steadied inside final 100 M. |
| 12 | 10 | STRAIGHT VICTORY (CE328) | P H Lo | CP/TT | Slowest away, 8Ls last early on, very wide and still well back taking home bend, never went past one horse. |
