| 1 | 11 | AIPODER IMAGE (CJ031) | Y T Cheng | B | Cut out the early running till 1100 M, sat one back on the fence from leader, challenged and led 200 M out, kept on well to hold off the persistent runner-up. (Trainer questioned re running position.) |
| 2 | 8 | MASTER MASTER (CH144) | B Doyle | V | Lost ground at the start, always prominent tracking the leader, took over passing 400 M, headed 200 M, attempted to rally back but was always held. |
| 3 | 6 | DRAGON BOY (CJ204) | D Whyte | B | Behind leaders early, eased back to midfield entering the back straight, angled out from the rails for a clear run passing 400 M, ran on final 200 M. |
| 4 | 3 | TRAVEL LEADER (CD226) | C W Wong | CP- | Away with them, in midfield along the fence, keen and difficult to settle down the back straight, made steady headway inside 400 M but unable to trouble the first two. |
| 5 | 1 | SUPER IDEAL (CC223) | J Lloyd | TT | Slowly into stride and towards rear, 8Ls off the leader in middle stages, made steady progress over the home turn, stayed on well inside 200 M. |
| 6 | 7 | COOL RUNNINGS (CK014) | B Prebble | -- | Well enough away, raced in a 2-wide spot ahead of mid-division, driven out approaching 400 M, couldn't step up a gear when required, no extra 200 M out. |
| 7 | 12 | RISING WIN (CC089) | T H So | B-/SR2 | Awkwardly away, settled in midfield 5Ls off the pace, driven along and some progress 500 M out, swung wide into straight, had his chance but weakened passing 200 M. |
| 8 | 2 | STAR OF CHIU TON (CJ175) | M L Yeung | -- | Away in line, eased and crossed to race at the back of the field, waited with until 400 M, lacked a sparkling turn of foot and could only make limited progress from off the pace. |
| 9 | 5 | OSCAR PRINCE (CJ052) | O Doleuze | -- | Good jump, restrained to a 2-wide position towards the rear of mid-division, moved closer making the home turn but couldn't find another gear in straight. One-paced finish. |
| 10 | 9 | LAZY BUDDIES (CC208) | G Cheyne | B | Broke well from the inside but lacked early speed and was dropped towards the rear, struggled to keep up passing 500 M and never looked likely from that point. |
| 11 | 4 | ZERO GRAVITY (CH037) | M Chadwick | TT | Overcame a wide draw to lead approaching 1200 M, set a steady pace up front, collared near 400 M and found nothing under pressure, dropped out rapidly inside 250 M. |
