| 1 | 11 | COSMO SUCCESSOR (CH118) | Y T Cheng | B | Broke well, always close up tracking leader, took inside run final 300M, hit the front 50M out and prevailed in a close finish. |
| 2 | 6 | TRACK LIGHTNING (M029) | C Y Ho | B | Sat handily just off the pace, travelled strongly throughout, responded well and looked the likeliest winner going into 100M only to lose out in a head-bobbing finish. |
| 3 | 5 | HOT PEPPER (CJ236) | G Mosse | TT | Restrained on jumping from draw 12 and travelled in a 3-wide position out the back, made up a lot of ground when brought widest on straightening, nearest finish. |
| 4 | 10 | GOLD WINNER (CK139) | H W Lai | B/TT | From draw 11 driven forward to find the lead, kept responding to urgings from 300M and was only worn down nearing 50M. |
| 5 | 3 | CHATER POWER (CG312) | J Lloyd | B/TT | Began well, held inside running in midfield, kept on well final 300M, nearest finish. |
| 6 | 9 | JUST CHILL (CK221) | Z Purton | CP-/B1/TT | Not hurried in early stages, crossed to a 2-wide position behind midfield, kept on evenly having had every chance. |
| 7 | 12 | COUNTRY MAGIC (CH069) | M Du Plessis | TT | Dropped back to last 7-8Ls off the pace, stayed on from the rear without threatening. |
| 8 | 7 | JOYFUL JOYFUL (CK284) | M L Yeung | P1/H1 | Raced in a 2-wide position in midfield, plugged on at one pace, never a real threat. |
| 9 | 2 | HOME WITH GLORY (CL171) | B Doyle | B | Began awkwardly, raced behind midfield along the inside, steadied 600M, made a short-lived effort early straight, flattened out late stages. |
| 10 | 1 | FLORA DANICA (M064) | D Whyte | -- | Blundered at the start, kept 3-wide without cover in midfield, not quickened under pressure. |
| 11 | 4 | CONFUCIUS CLASSIC (CJ141) | K C Leung | CP/TT | Held up out the back, last turning in about 7Ls off leader, gave limited response only. |
| 12 | 8 | SUPERIOR WARRIOR (CL167) | B Prebble | B/TT | From a wide draw hard driven early to go forward, sat just behind the pace along the 2-path, found nothing under pressure and was eased off inside 200M. (Blood in trachea.) |
