| 1 | 1 | SIR LAGO (CH268) | B Prebble | B | Very slow to begin then was bustled to join the field and by the 700 M had managed to work forward on the fence into a reasonable spot behind midfield. Responded nicely to vigorous riding and won drawing away. |
| 2 | 11 | CHEERFUL HAPPINESS (CE220) | B Doyle | B2 | Raced 4-wide with cover in a midfield position. Carried wider turning for home continued to close off well. |
| 3 | 9 | RAINBOW STAR (CJ275) | Z Purton | B | Ridden along to travel outside the leader. Was under pressure after the 500 M but kept on soundly. |
| 4 | 6 | COVER BOY (CK021) | T H So | SR-/TT- | Parked on the speed but was posted 3-wide and without cover for most of the trip. Kept on evenly over the concluding stages. |
| 5 | 8 | MYTHIC STEED (CD208) | M Du Plessis | PC- | Stalked the leader along the rails. Never really quickened and was one paced in the run home. |
| 6 | 14 | SIMPLY THE BEST (CE014) | M W Leung | CP | Took up a position at the tail of the field 2 to 3-wide with cover. Came wide in the straight and battled on fairly making some late ground. |
| 7 | 13 | DANEPRINT (CC221) | Y T Cheng | B/TT- | Positioned back in the field, 1 off with cover, held up turning, plugged away at the same pace in the straight. |
| 8 | 4 | COOL RUNNINGS (CK014) | K T Yeung | -- | Went forward to lead along the fence. Folded after the final furlong. |
| 9 | 12 | TRIUMPHANT GLORY (CB368) | W M Lai | B | No Comments on Running information for this horse. |
| 10 | 5 | FOREVER FORTUNE (CG145) | J Winks | B/TT | Positioned at the rear of the field 1 off with cover. Paddled in the run to the line. |
| 11 | 7 | MEDALLION (CG322) | H W Lai | B/TT | Raced 3 back on the fence. Had every possible chance. (See Racing Incident.) |
| 12 | 10 | GALAXY DANCER (CH179) | D Whyte | V/TT | Positioned behind the speed 3 deep with cover. Shifted out into the clear on straightening and showed some response before tiring after the 300 M. (See Racing Incident.) (Jockey reported abnormal breathing.) |
| 13 | 3 | CHINESE COURSER (CJ235) | K C Leung | B/TT | Travelled on the speed but coursed 4-wide and without cover, throughout, not likely. |
| 14 | 2 | FANTASTIC TIME (CH220) | J Lloyd | SR/V | Raced 2-wide, slightly behind midfield with cover. Never a factor. |
