Horse Name | Jockey | Gear | Comment |
| 1 | 1 | FIRM OFFER (CE008) | F Coetzee | SR | No pace as usual, raced 6Ls back on rails, suited by a quiet ride, saved ground on bend, pushed up between horses and got dream run through from 300 M to hit lead at 100 M and score a deserved win. |
| 2 | 11 | ISLAND SUPER (CH297) | E Saint-Martin | -- | Broke only fairly, ended up in running line racing 4Ls back in midfield, had a soft trip to bend, angled into clear at 300 M, made a strong run to hit lead passing 200 M but couldn't hold off late challenge. |
| 3 | 6 | UNITED EFFORTS (CH177) | D Whyte | P-/XB1 | Began awkwardly, regathered to race 4Ls away on rails in midfield, had a quiet trip in mid-section, trailed strongly between horses turning in, in traffic passing 200 M, closed hard when clear last furlong. |
| 4 | 2 | FIRST AMONG EQUALS (CC327) | G Mosse | B | No early dash and took up expected role in rearward division, raced 3-wide with cover but suited by pace, switched widest on turning in, made solid progress down middle to make frame. |
| 5 | 10 | CARRIZO CREEK (CE132) | D Beadman | PC-/B2 | Standard jump and drifted back to race 6Ls back in running line, helped by even tempo, still well back to bend, lost run at 350 M and again at 150 M, charged late when clear running presented to finish an unlucky 5th. |
| 6 | 3 | SUPER TRAVELLER (CH275) | O Doleuze | -- | Began well, ended up in a nice position 3Ls back in running line, improved between horses on bend, didn't have clearest running in straight but kept improving before running out of room late. |
| 7 | 4 | FLUKE (CJ061) | C Soumillon | CP1/TT | Began in line, niggled along but unable to slot in, raced 3-wide 5 to 6Ls back with cover, urged along making a 4-wide run turning, made gradual progress but couldn't lift last 100 M. (Blood in trachea.) |
| 8 | 5 | AMPLE GAINS (CE021) | H W Lai | B/TT | Away with first few, raced 3-wide outside leaders, did it tough without cover with reasonable sectionals, kept challenging turning and still there at 200 M but hard run took toll and dropped off late. |
| 9 | 9 | WEI HAI INVINCIBLE (CH258) | K T Yeung | SR/TT | Fast into stride, in early pace battle before taking a trail 2 to 3Ls back on fence, raced on bridle on back of pace to bend, in traffic turning and didn't get a clear crack at any stage. Not tested. |
| 10 | 14 | MERIDIAN PRIDE (CH057) | G Boss | B | Began well, showed usual pace but forced to do plenty of work to eventually take up running, kept even sections to bend, began to struggle at 200 M and weakened out late when work load took toll. |
| 11 | 12 | MARIBEAU (CH213) | M Nunes | -- | Out well and pressed forward to take up a spot outside leader, didn't have an easy time with genuine pace on, pressured but outside horse on circle, couldn't sprint at business end and gradually lost touch. |
| 12 | 8 | PHANTOM THIEF (CG019) | K L Chui | TT | First to hit ground, pressed to be challenge for front, ended up taking a sit behind leader, right there turning but lacked pick up to take inside run, kept on at same pace before badly crowded at 150 M. |
| 13 | 7 | JACKPOT DELIGHT (CJ101) | S Dye | -- | Restrained from a wide alley raced 3-wide with cover 8Ls back at rear, overraced in mid-section and failed to handle bend, ran off upon straightening and cost all chance of winning. (See Racing Incidents.) |
| 14 | 13 | VICTORY STYLE (CG120) | P H Lo | -- | Lacked early toe and shared rear 8 to 9Ls back on rails, struggling to keep up rounding bend, dropped further behind on turning and was well beaten. |
