Horse Name | Jockey | Gear | Comment |
| 1 | 11 | GRABBIT (CG144) | W M Lai | B | Always travelling well, disputed early lead on fence, held the box seat from 1400 M to home turn, switched out to lead over 100 M out, all out to barely get home. |
| 2 | 2 | GREEN IN BLUE (CD117) | S Dye | B | 1L back in 2nd out 2-wide at 1600 M, always well there and a neck 2nd at top of straight, led 250 M out, headed over 100 M out but fought back gamely, missed by a nose. |
| 3 | 9 | BARRACUDA (CB320) | P H Lo | -- | Hard pressed early on to lead on fence at 1600 M, slowed the tempo down the back, headed about 250 M out but well positioned enough to still grab a place. |
| 4 | 4 | SEA TREASURE (CD335) | E Saint-Martin | B/XB | Slowest away and under pressure early on, about 10Ls last at halfway, still last when 6Ls down turning for home, kept on well inside closing stages to take 4th. |
| 5 | 5 | ELEPHANT DANCE (CA391) | F Coetzee | B | Nicely placed 3-back the fence no worse than 4Ls off pace in midfield until home turn, given every chance to place but lacked a turn of foot. |
| 6 | 7 | MEATH (CE143) | D Whyte | SR/V | 6Ls off pace out 2-wide at halfway in 8th place, headway out 3-wide with cover from 1000 M, forced out 5-wide off home turn when 2Ls back in mid-division, one-paced on run-in. |
| 7 | 3 | CHEERFUL HEART (CC206) | K L Chui | B | 2-wide and 3Ls back in 5th a mile out, same margin behind when 4-wide turning for home, still with place chances at 200 M but lost momentum nearer the line. |
| 8 | 12 | SPRING SMILES (CG269) | D Nikolic | B | Slow start, over-raced and green throughout, 6Ls back in 9th on fence at 1300 M, 4-wide and 5Ls back in 10th turning for home, no impression. |
| 9 | 8 | TRAVEL LEADER (CD226) | G Mosse | -- | Caught 3-wide no cover throughout, within 1L or 2Ls of the speed in 3rd or 4th until the final turn, soon emptied out and eased down passing the 200 M. |
| 10 | 6 | HAPPY HEROES (CD261) | M W Leung | -- | Restrained in rear bunch about 8Ls off pace at 1600 M, still well behind taking final bend, made no ground down the centre of track. |
| 11 | 10 | SPECIFIC SORCEROR (CA321) | H W Lai | B | 5Ls off pace and 2-wide in 7th at 1400 M, driven along to take closer order on straightening for home, troubled very few. |
| 12 | 1 | LAZY BUDDIES (CC208) | O Doleuze | B2 | Soon 8Ls off pace in rear, made headway to move 5Ls off speed in 9th at the half-mile, all out to maintain this proximity taking final bend, weakened out. |
