2 | 12 | SIMPLY THE BEST (CE014) | C K Tong | CP | Well enough away, taken a midfield spot on the rail 4Ls back, travelled comfortably to bend, dashed home strongly inside 300 M but the winner got first run on him. Just failed. |
3 | 11 | SPEED OF LIGHT (CC333) | S K Sit | TT | Quickly away from the inside barrier, travelled a shade keen early before settling prominently behind leaders, commenced his run near 400 M, stayed on well but unable to give serious threat to the first two. |
4 | 2 | FORTUNE GALLOP (CH191) | D Whyte | B | Quickly into stride, showed early speed to take up running, led field at slow tempo, pressed by runner on outside making home turn, headed near 250 M, battled on before weakening inside 100 M. |
5 | 5 | KINGSTON TEMPLE (CH234) | Y T Cheng | B | Away with them, failed to muster early, assumed a position behind midfield 6Ls back, held up for a brief moment on straightening, into clear 250 M and made up plenty of ground thereafter. |
6 | 8 | DENDRANTHEMA LOVE (CD073) | H W Lai | B | Average break, parked 2-wide behind midfield 6-7Ls off the pace, crept closer making the home turn, ran on OK in straight but was not a threat overall. |

9 | 3 | DRAGON BOY (CJ204) | E Saint-Martin | -- | Slow to begin, held up patiently in the rear pack trailing 8Ls to leader, under urging making the home turn, couldn't switch to another gear and was one-paced in his finish. |
10 | 7 | DANEPRINT (CC221) | C W Wong | B | Began awkwardly and lost ground, crossed over to the rail, settled in a rearward position 7-8Ls back, had a ground saving trip but found little when asked on straightening, god tired inside 100 M. |
11 | 1 | JOYFUL YEARS (CG143) | O Doleuze | -- | Taken back on jumping, settled in the rear trailing 8-9Ls to leader, travelled wide throughout the trip, had plenty to do turning in, didn't respond under pressure and just plugged away to line. |
