Horse Name | Jockey | Gear | Comment |
| 1 | 2 | DASHING VICTORY (CK241) | D Whyte | XB | Always in the front rank and travelled well under restraint, went in pursuit of the leader 350 M out, hit front 150 M and took this with something in hand. |
| 2 | 6 | LUCKY SELECTION (CK228) | O Doleuze | B | Always in touch, crossed to lead on the nearside approaching halfway, kept on well inside 400 M, pulled nicely clear of others but unable to withstand the finishing effort of the winner inside 150 M. |
| 3 | 11 | SHIBALA (CK230) | W C Marwing | B1 | Behind midfield early but gradually crept up to a handy spot approaching 400 M, fought on gamely to claim 3rd but could not quite match the first two. |
| 4 | 13 | TRAVEL KING (CK240) | K T Yeung | TT1 | Prominently placed in the firing line, battled on willingly inside 300 M despite hanging out in the run to the line. |
| 5 | 9 | PENGLAI XIANZI (CK248) | M Chadwick | TT | Rolled along the stands' rail one back from leader, responded farily when asked to go 350 M out, one paced finish only. |
| 6 | 4 | HEALTHY BLUEBERRY (CK222) | Y T Cheng | -- | Slightly slow out and obtained a midfield position one off the stands' rail, into clear 400 M out, stayed on but was never going to get there. |
| 7 | 7 | NEW LEADER (CK242) | M W Leung | -- | In midfield towards the outside of group, ran on only fairly inside 400 M, hung out after 200 M had nothing to offer over the final stages. |
| 8 | 5 | JUST CHILL (CK221) | Z Purton | TT | Standard break, within 2 to 3Ls of the leader, asked for a forward move inside 400 M but ran on at one pace to the line. |
| 9 | 12 | SOLITAIRE (CK167) | H W Lai | CP1 | 2 to 3Ls in behind the leader, came under pressure 500 M out and was unable to go on, faded inside 200 M. |
| 10 | 8 | OTTIMO (CK238) | S K Sit | -- | Slow to begin, didn't muster early speed and soon became detached in last, had 10Ls to make up inside 400 M, never involved. |
| 11 | 10 | ROMANCING TAMAR (CK176) | C K Tong | CP1 | Well enough away, prominent early but was outpaced from midway, found disappointingly little when asked, eased close home. |
| 12 | 1 | FOX (CK096) | K L Chui | XB1/TT1 | Close enough in early stages but struggled to keep up passing 600 M, never picked up. |
| 13 | 3 | DESCARTES (CK293) | W M Lai | -- | Poor start, severely checked near 900 M, settled at the back of the main group, found little under pressure and dropped away inside 200 M. |
