| 1 | 6 | BRAVE KNIGHT (CC131) | O Doleuze | TT | Broke with rest, ridden along to hold midfield spot, raced 2 wide 3 to 4Ls away pushed along, began to travel better on turn, made ground into straight, bumped into clear at 250 M, surged to lead at 150 M to score. |
| 2 | 9 | MASTER YING (CB249) | K S Yu | B | Began fastest from outside alley, showed speed to cross to sit outside leader, raced at leader's girth throughout, had fair run to turn with even speed, challenged leader all of straight, hit lead at 100 M and overhauled late. |
| 3 | 3 | WIKI WIKI (CD205) | D Whyte | -- | OK to leave gates, ridden up to take closer order, posted 3 wide in midfield (with cover) 5Ls away, tracked nicely and swung 4 wide into straight, closed race off well making good ground down outside. |
| 4 | 4 | KEEN FLYER (CB330) | K T Yeung | TT | Broke nicely and showed good early dash to take early lead, kept them rolling at an even clip, held 1/2L on turning, battled hard for most of straight but run ended at the 100 M. |
| 5 | 10 | FAST TRACK (CB375) | F Coetzee | B | Average to leave gates, settled worse than midfield ridden along, raced 2 wide 6 to 7Ls away, well back and hard ridden on turn, made run between horses in straight, closed race off well giving too great a start. |
| 6 | 8 | DOUCAI (CC255) | E Saint-Martin | B | Broke with rest, showed enough dash to hold prominent spot, raced 1 out 1 back with run of race to turn, 2Ls down on straightening, had bumping duel with winner at 300 M, closed off only fairly thereafter. Rider knocked off late. |
| 7 | 5 | THE ELEGANT GREY (CG126) | P H Lo | -- | Began awkwardly, rider unbalanced and lost considerable ground, chased hard to settle at rear on rails 6 to 7Ls away, kept making ground to be 3 to 4Ls down on turn, still giving to 200 M but fitness gave out last bit. |
| 8 | 1 | HONOUR SUPREME (CB393) | B Prebble | V-/P2 | Out with rest, settled just off midfield 3 wide 6Ls away, had cover but always working in mid-section, well back with job to do on turn, made up some ground until checked at 200 M. Never really likely. (Lame morning after.) |
| 9 | 7 | HAPPY SUNDAY (CE169) | G Mosse | B/TT | Broke with line, pressed on to race in more forward spot, raced 3 wide without cover 2Ls away, always working in mid-section, pushed 4 wide on turn, gradually weakened in straight when workload took toll. |
| 10 | 2 | TOFFEE (CE236) | S Dye | P1/TT | Average to begin, never comfortable and soon lost considerable ground, raced at rear more than 10Ls away, still well back on turn, made no impression in straight (jockey reported abnormal breathing). |
| 11 | 11 | MAINLAND MASTER (CG044) | M Odendaal | B | Began fairly, hard ridden to drive through into spot behind leader, raced on bit 1L away with run of race, still there but pushed along on turn, weakened right out in straight. |
