| 1 | 10 | BROWN BEAUTY (CC029) | Y T Cheng | B | Began fairly, pressed on to maintain a rail position tracking leaders, enjoyed a ground-saving trip, peeled out to challenge on straightening, led from 200 M, ran on well to score with something in hand. |
| 2 | 6 | PERFECT MATCH (CJ072) | D Whyte | -- | Slightly slow out, soon taken to a midfield position 4 to 5Ls off the pace, had soft run and ideally placed to bend, finished the race well but unable to take ground off the winner. |
| 3 | 1 | ELECTRONICS SPUR (CE285) | F Coetzee | B/TT | Out nicely, travelled in a prominent position 2 to 3Ls behind leader, ridden along as they turned, lacked extra gear to be a factor but stayed on well to make frame. |
| 4 | 2 | SAMBUOYANT (CE172) | Z Purton | B | Restrained from a wide barrier, taken across to settle in the rear along rails, made a move from 900 M to lead on turning, headed 200 M out, gradually weakened towards the line. |
| 5 | 5 | WONG'S SUCCESS (CE107) | O Doleuze | B | Settled patiently towards the rear after break, hindered by the slow tempo throughout, commenced move from 600 M, made some headway down the straight but never threatened. |
| 6 | 9 | CENTENNIAL SMILE (CG165) | W C Marwing | B | Began with rest, difficult to settle in early stages and travelled wide without cover in midfield, shuffled back to the rear on turning, finished off the race fairly without threatening. |
| 7 | 8 | CLASSIC KING (CD256) | M Du Plessis | B/TT | Began well, went forward racing one back one wide, enjoyed early slow tempo but struggled to keep up when pace quickened on the turn, checked near 300 M, ran home one-paced. |
| 8 | 3 | SIR LAGO (CH268) | W M Lai | B | Slow to begin, initially settled behind midfield, surged to the front in back straight, began to struggle near 200 M, weakened thereafter. |
| 9 | 4 | EVERGREEN (CE106) | B Prebble | B2/TT | Jumped well, led slowly on the fence until taken over near 600 M, under pressure on straightening, found nothing in run to line. (Mucus.) |
| 10 | 7 | PUERTO RICO (CH147) | H W Lai | TT | Away in line, taken across field to race in rear about 6Ls off the pace, remained there to bend, unable to sprint with them, finished tailed-off. |
