| 2 | 8 | OCEAN WIDE (CJ132) | C W Wong | H | Handed up the lead near the 800m, settling in second position on the rails. Got a nice cart into the race passing the 600m after being crossed by the leader. Was in front at the 200m but was unable to sustain its effort. |
| 3 | 7 | HINYUEN PALADIN (CL199) | K C Ng | -- | Settled mainly 1 out 1 back during the early to middle stages. Maintained a good gallop right to the wire. |
| 4 | 11 | SUGAR PEGASUS (N029) | Y T Cheng | V-/B1 | Raced keenly whilst positioned midfield, 1 off with cover. Finished off soundly to make the frame. |
| 5 | 9 | SPLENDID GUY (N183) | R Fourie | B1 | Parked midfield the fence with cover. Kept on fairly in the final stretch. |
