Horse Name | Jockey | Gear | Comment |
| 1 | 5 | GOOD GAINS (CJ293) | W C Marwing | XB | In chasing group just off the pace and travelled strongly into contention, picked up well inside 300 M to edge out rival close home. |
| 2 | 8 | SOARING RIVER (CK137) | O Doleuze | B | Tracked leader prominently and had a smooth inside run, quickened to strike the front 150 M, kept on well but was just denied close home. |
| 3 | 9 | REGENCY KINGDOM (CK031) | M Chadwick | TT | Soon taken to the front, disputed early lead then sat one out one back to straight, briefly threatened from 250 M to 150 M but couldn't sustain effort in late stages. |
| 4 | 6 | NORTH HILL (CJ082) | D Whyte | -- | Assumed running in midfield 5Ls off the steady pace, had an uninterrupted run inside 300 M, stayed on for a non- threatening 4th. |
| 5 | 11 | BLEDISLOE (CK073) | G Cheyne | B/TT | Never far off in 5th, had his chance but ran on one-paced only. |
| 6 | 7 | GALLANT MASTER (CJ255) | D Beadman | B | Held up towards the rear, 7Ls down turning in, made minor headway in late stages. |
| 7 | 3 | GOOD LUCK WIN (CK004) | H W Lai | XB | Attempted to lead but showed insufficient early speed, positioned 2-wide in mid-division, ran on fairly final 300 M. |
| 8 | 4 | JUGGERNAUT (CJ019) | Z Purton | B/TT | Emerged as the leader passing 1100 M, led steadily to 250 M, no extra late on. |
| 9 | 12 | CLASSIC REUNION (CH166) | C K Tong | B/SR | Hard driven early after a slow start, placed towards the rear 7Ls back, lacked a finish final 300 M. |
| 10 | 2 | BUCCANEER (CH214) | M W Leung | TT | Taken back and crossed to the fence, in 2nd last throughout, made very limited progress on straightening. |
| 11 | 1 | HORSESHOE FORTUNE (CL098) | K C Leung | XB | Crossed to the fence and raced 6Ls back in midfield, under pressure approaching 400 M, weakened 200 M. |
| 12 | 10 | SUPER GOAL MASTER (CG220) | Y T Cheng | CP/H/TT | Always at the rear, never a factor. |
