Horse Name | Jockey | Gear | Comment |
| 1 | 4 | BERNARD'S CHOICE (N156) | Z Purton | H/V/TT | Crowded at the start, settling behind midfield 1 off with cover. Shifted out deep on straightening and hit the line strongly over the final 100m. |
| 2 | 7 | COLUMBUS LINE (N264) | O Doleuze | B/H/TT | Led early on the fence before handing up passing the 800m, soon after shifted off the fence to travel 1 off in 2nd position. Looked the likely winner at the 200m, but was nailed near the 50m. |
| 3 | 9 | RAY OF GOLD (N443) | G Mosse | H | Parked close to midfield, 2 deep with cover. Kept on evenly, just couldn't find that bit extra late. |
| 4 | 14 | FLYING KEEPER (M191) | A Suborics | B/TT | Parked worse than midfield, on the rails with cover. Finished off satisfactorily. |
| 5 | 3 | KING ON EARTH (CL251) | H W Lai | SR | Made its run from back in the field, 2 deep with cover. Closed off well. |
| 6 | 2 | SOLAR DRAGON (P136) | W M Lai | B | Worked to the line soundly after travelling on the fence with cover, midfield. Didn't have a lot of room over the latter stages. |
| 7 | 5 | CAPTAIN AMERICA (P074) | B Prebble | B/XB1 | Settled second 1 off before rolling forward and assumed the lead near the 800m. Crossed to the fence soon after, was still in the mix at the 100m but faded over the final 50m. |
| 8 | 1 | PEACEFUL MISSION (P114) | D Whyte | XB/B2/TT | Raced with the backmakers, 3 deep with cover. Came widest in the stretch and made steady headway in the run to the line. |
| 9 | 12 | JUST GOOD (CL133) | K Teetan | B-/H | Began awkwardly, shifted out and lost considerable ground. Managed to tack onto the field in last position, on the rails. Made reasonable progress towards the inside in the home stretch. |
| 10 | 13 | POSITIVE ENERGY (P011) | R Curatolo | H/TT | Raced keenly in the early stages whilst stalking the leader on the fence. Commenced to give ground after the furlong. |
| 11 | 6 | GOOD LUCK WIN (CK004) | M Chadwick | XB | Drifted back to settle towards the rear, 3 deep with cover. Only plodded to the line. |
| 12 | 10 | ELEPHANT MAGIC (N211) | C Y Ho | P/XB/TT | Settled handy to the leaders, 1 off with cover. Carried 4 deep on the home turn, soon faded. |
| 13 | 11 | FLYING SUPREME (CK226) | C K Tong | B | Settled close to midfield, had cover on the circle, 3 deep. Gave in quickly after the 150m. |
| 14 | 8 | GOOD SMILE (CK360) | T H So | -- | No luck whilst racing on the speed, after being posted 3 deep without cover. Struggled in the home straight. |
