| 1 | 2 | LEGEND EXPRESS (CK224) | H W Lai | B | Always going well sitting in the slipstream of the leader, quickened impressively turning in and took lead passing 200M, kept on strongly to the line. |
| 2 | 6 | ATHENIUM (CK197) | T Angland | -- | Held up at the back, 6Ls to make up inside 400M, couldn’t quite get to the winner but stayed on best of the rest. |
| 3 | 5 | EASTERN EMPIRE (CL172) | M Chadwick | TT | Near the tail of the field, saved ground racing along the inside, stayed on final 300M to go 3rd near the line. |
| 4 | 3 | NEW VISION (M028) | Z Purton | B | Shared lead on the inside, quickened tempo near 600M and established a 2Ls lead turning for home, headed by the eventual winner inside 200M, weakened into 4th over the final stages. |
| 5 | 1 | PROJECT RUNWAY (CL302) | K C Ng | B | Failed to muster speed despite vigorously ridden and raced further back than intended, finished off only fairly final 400M, hung in mid-straight and was difficult to ride. |
| 6 | 9 | VIVA FREEDOM (M037) | M Du Plessis | -- | Moved forward to join leader, raced fiercely when being restrained in middle stages, kept on one-paced when put to pressure early straight before giving some response final 200M. (Jockey and Trainer questioned.) |
| 7 | 4 | NICE FOLKS (CL421) | W C Marwing | H/CP | Positioned 4Ls back in midfield and raced 3-wide for much of the way, came with a promising run early straight, had his chance but effort flattened out final 150M. |
| 8 | 10 | GOOD THINKER (M127) | W M Lai | B | Tracked leaders along the 2-path, didn’t pick up when the tempo quickened inside 500M was left behind mid-straight. |
| 9 | 8 | OUR DYNASTY (M241) | J Lloyd | -- | Taken back from a wide barrier and guided to a midfield spot along the rails, didn’t respond to urging approaching home straight, weakened rapidly passing 300M. |
| 10 | 7 | HAPPY SEVEN (CK155) | B Prebble | B- | Never far off the pace, caught 3-wide in chasing group and was left racing with no cover from 1100M, not quickened when the race got serious, dropped out 250M from home. |
