Horse Name | Jockey | Gear | Comment |
| 1 | 4 | DEVAS TWELVE (H435) | Z Purton | TT | Gradually picked up to one back 3-wide position after moderate start, one-out-one-back rounding home bend and disputed lead into straight, hit the front 200M out and hung on dourly under pressure. |
| 2 | 8 | DRAGON FOUR SEAS (J317) | K C Leung | B | Travelled keenly wide without cover in midfield after beginning from a poor draw, remained in similar position when 4-wide in 6th rounding home bend, ran on under pressure to just fail to get up on line. |
| 3 | 3 | SATIRICAL GLORY (H073) | L Hewitson | SR1/XB1 | Jumped awkwardly losing ground, travelled keenly in 8th on rail just worse than midfield, soon came 2-wide to challenge after straightening, fought on steadily under pressure without threatening. |
| 4 | 9 | CHATER GOLD (J004) | H Bentley | CP | Broke well from the one draw before taken one back on rail, forced to steady losiong ground about 1050M out, some 2L back in 5th rounding home bend, baulked for a run early in straight and produced good late impression final 100M. |
| 5 | 5 | MISSION VOICE (H444) | L Ferraris | B | Ridden positively from a poor draw to lead or dispute lead out wide, gained outright advantage on rail coming onto home bend, re-joined in front by eventual winner into straight and soon found no extra under pressure. |
| 6 | 1 | HARMONY GALAXY (J266) | P N Wong | TT | Chased leaders early, lost ground drifting back to over 2L back in 5th onto home bend becoming 4th 3-wide shortly after, faded steadily in straight. |
| 7 | 10 | STERLING WONGCHOY (H273) | A Badel | SR/XB | Soon taken well back from a poor draw for rails run, trailed the field into straight, kept on same pace without quickening under pressure. |
| 8 | 11 | MISTER FOX (J059) | B Thompson | CP1 | Broke well from a poor draw and soon taken well behind, shifted widest when 5-wide rounding home bend, ran past well-beaten horses down the centre of the straight. |
| 9 | 6 | LUCKY IMPACT (J337) | K Teetan | -- | Never better than midfield, 3-wide rounding home bend and wider into straight, made no further impression. (Jockey said horse did not travel at any stage.) (Blood in trachea) |
| 10 | 2 | TOP PEAK (H441) | C L Chau | TT | Well there sharing early pace in back straight while travelling keenly, held back for 2nd on heels of race leader rounding home bend, soon weakened under pressure in straight. (Blood in trachea) |
