1 | 10 | FAITHFUL TRINITY (A247) | M Chadwick | B/TT | Soon in front setting slow pace early stages, allowed an uncontested lead, opened up a decisive lead top of straight, fought on late stages just holding off the runner up at the line. |
2 | 1 | CORDYCEPS ONE (E107) | K Teetan | B/H | In 4th spot on settling, never far off from leaders in a moderately run race, responded well over final 300M under top weight, just denied in a close finish. |
3 | 3 | OVER THE MOON (G162) | H Bowman | B/TT | Began fairly, soon moved up to track leader, remained racing in 2nd place throughout, tried hard early straight but couldn't get near to winner, lost 2nd inside 150M. |
4 | 5 | CHARIZARD (B463) | L Ferraris | B/TT | Strolled forward from draw 1, tracked leaders in a moderately run race, lacked the needed kick passing 300M, comfortably held by leaders. |
5 | 9 | HO HO JUNIOR (G127) | C Y Ho | -- | Settled 2-wide in midfield, driven wide into straight, kept on one paced to the line, not reach contention. |
6 | 12 | FORTUNE WINNER (E248) | V Borges | XB/TT | Taken back to race towards the rear in a moderately run race, gave limited response passing 400M, never a threat to leaders. |

8 | 6 | JOLLY HONOUR (C080) | Z Purton | B/TT | From wide draw shifted across to race behind midfield in a moderately run race, not quickened when driven 450M, never involved. (Jockey : not suited by the pace, difficult to make up ground in the straight.) |
9 | 7 | GLORIOUS LOVER (D191) | H Bentley | B- | Dropped back from wide draw, held up near last 8Ls in a moderately run race, gave limited response from 400M, never going the pace to challenge. |
10 | 4 | TYCOON JEWELLERY (E473) | A Badel | H/XB/TT | Slow to begin, obtained a position behind midfield, couldn't go on passing 400M. (Jockey: not suited by settling in a rearward position with the race run at a moderate tempo.) |
11 | 2 | TO INFINITY (G277) | Y L Chung | B/TT | Caught 3-wide early stages before drifting back to race near the rear, pace very slow early stages, plenty to do 400M, lacked a closing kick. (Jockey : not suited by the tempo throughout the race.) |
