| 1 | 4 | LOHAN (CH279) | B Prebble | B/XB1 | Settled within striking distance on rails, one-back turning in, soon obtained clear run after straightening, responded well to draw clear over 200 M out. |
| 2 | 12 | LAZY BUDDIES (CC208) | M Du Plessis | B | Waited with, finished off race strongly inside final 200 M, nearest at finish. |
| 3 | 7 | PACIFIC ALLIANCE (CC230) | B Doyle | CP-/V1 | Slightly slow out, gradually picked up to midfield on rails, closer up home turn, improving when forced to switch 300 M out, fought on without threatening. |
| 4 | 11 | SAMMY'S FORTUNE (CH204) | J Victoire | TT | Settled wide in forward of midfield, ran home steadily to reach 2nd inside 200 M, overhauled when no extra near finish. |
| 5 | 2 | CENTENNIAL SMILE (CG165) | K C Leung | -- | Settled at the back from wide draw, remained well back to straight, snuck up on rails turning in and early in straight, unable to sustain effort inside final 200 M. |
| 6 | 1 | REAL REJOICING (CH202) | M L Yeung | B2/TT | Broke well from wide draw, raced wide with leaders throughout far side, settled just outside leader before the bend, disputed lead into straight, gradually faded under pressure inside 300 M. (Tactic questioned.) |

| 8 | 6 | CHINSOLA (CD328) | G Mosse | B | Began fairly, settled 3-wide behind midfield from wide-ish draw, found nothing in straight. (Questioned for poor performance.) |
| 9 | 14 | SUPER POWER (CH117) | M Chadwick | TT | Began awkwardly, settled in midfield, slightly worse around bend and turning in, kept on same pace in the run home. (Tactic questioned.) |
| 10 | 3 | KEEN SPIRIT (CJ022) | K T Yeung | TT | Raced keenly and amongst leaders early, taken back to about 2.5Ls off the pace before home bend, gradually faded after straightening. |
| 11 | 13 | VITALITY CHAMP (CD301) | Y T Cheng | B/XB | Began with others and was looking for cover, settled in better than midfield position before rapid progress around bend to join leaders, lost touch under pressure over 300 M out. |
