1 | 9 | MY JOY (CA143) | R Fradd | V- | Pushed along to take a box seat on rail behind leader. Quickened turning in and took advantage 250 M. Won gamely. |
2 | 3 | BELLAGIO (BT123) | G Mosse | -- | Held up behind midfield, racing 4-wide until straightening. Ran on steadily to snatch 2nd final strides but unable to threaten the winner. |
3 | 11 | MIGHTY AND GOLD (BT271) | A Suborics | B | Away best from widest gate. Crossed gradually to lead on rail, never more then 1L clear. Overhauled by winner 250 M out but kept on well, just lost 2nd near finish. |
4 | 7 | VICTORY DRUM (BT006) | F Coetzee | B | Settled in last two. Widest home bend. Made up good ground outside in straight without threatening placegetters. |

6 | 2 | PLENTY OF LUCK (CA308) | S K Sit | -- | Always midfield, racing 2-wide. One-paced in straight. |
7 | 8 | BUCK'S FIZZ (BV272) | D Whyte | SR | Midfield, racing 3-wide. Checked rather severely just after straightening. Shifted out to find running, one-paced to the line. |
8 | 4 | LASER PRIDE (BS277) | K H Ting | -- | Held up in last few inside. In rear turning in, shift to centre of track, made up some late ground. |
9 | 5 | TOP LIGHT (BP219) | Y T Cheng | -- | Towards rear. One-paced to the line. Never a factor. |
10 | 10 | UNIVERSAL STAR (BS188) | E Saint-Martin | -- | Bounded in the air, lost considerable ground. In rear far side racing wide with cover. Widest straightening. Made up a little ground closing stages. |

12 | 6 | CLASSA WIN (CA115) | J Egan | -- | On jumping, unbalanced and stumbled. Driven to midfield inside. Dropped out home bend. Gave further ground in straight. |
13 | 13 | BY INSTINCT (CA052) | W M Lai | -- | Prominent, racing 2-wide until straightening. No response under pressure. Dropped out. |
