1 | 5 | LUCKY TYCOON (CH318) | C W Wong | B | Began moderately, gradually moved up along rails in back straight to be just 2Ls off the pace, saved ground on inside turning in, ran on under pressure to gain upper hand passing 100 M. |
2 | 11 | BAYVIEW GREYSLEW (CJ194) | M Chadwick | B/TT | Began with others, close up on rails before gaining narrow advantage coming off the Rock, maintained similar lead early in straight until swamped passing 100 M. |
3 | 12 | MUTUAL GAIN (CE275) | Y T Cheng | B | Niggled at in first few, taken back to 2L 4th halfway down far side, about 3L back in 5th around home bend, came under pressure soon after straightening, ran on steadily to reach 3rd late. |
4 | 3 | HEXAGON (CL121) | C K Tong | H | Travelled wide without cover from a wide barrier, rolled forward up the Rock to join leaders, 3-wide in 3rd rounding home bend, unable to sustain effort under pressure in the run home. |
5 | 6 | MAGIC KING (CH182) | H W Lai | B | Began well, settled in 2L 4th before steadied and lost position early in back straight, renewed effort from 6th in forward of midfield approaching home bend, closer up turning in, kept on early in straight but found no extra near home. |
6 | 9 | KING CREOLE (CG287) | M L Yeung | TT | Settled one from last after beginning from a wide barrier, commenced move around the bend, made steady headway in straight to be nearest at finish. |

8 | 7 | MUSTANG (CK351) | B Prebble | TT- | Settled just worse than midfield, briefly short of room after straightening, kept on steadily without quickening. (Questioned for disappointing performance.) |
9 | 8 | GREAT FANTASY (CL069) | B Doyle | B | Began moderately, remained in last few most of way, attempting to improve when steadied on rails about 500 M out, saved ground turning in but ran home one-paced. |
10 | 2 | BUMBLE BEE (CL027) | D Whyte | H-/SR1/TT1 | Began moderately, raced wide at around midfield most of way to straight, folded up quickly after straightening. |
11 | 10 | TREASURE HUNT (CJ348) | W C Marwing | B/TT | Remained in rear of midfield despite niggled along, remained flat-footed when pace quickened around the bend, did nothing from the last spot into straight. |
12 | 1 | PLANET (CL029) | Z Purton | -- | Ridden from a middle gate to gain slender early lead, dropped back to close 2nd around home bend, soon faded out of contention after straightening. (Questioned for disappointing performance.) |
