| 1 | 13 | EVER KING (CE147) | D Whyte | V/TT | Raced 3-wide at midfield. Improved to be within 2Ls of the pace turning for home. Stayed on well in the straight and eventually ran down the early leader final 50 M. |
| 2 | 6 | KAISER'S CHOIX (CE305) | K S Yu | B/XB | Jumped only fairly but was hard ridden to take the lead. Held a 1/2L advantage into home straight. Kept on gamely to hold onto the lead in the straight but not enough to fend off the winner in the final 50 M. |
| 3 | 11 | MY LANSON (CE336) | M Nunes | SR | 3-wide in rear section. Gradually improved making the turn and continued well after straightening. Ran into some traffic at 300 M but picked up again once finding clear running and was closest at the line. |
| 4 | 9 | CHEEKY LAD (CG198) | D Nikolic | -- | Gradually dropped to a rearward position. Among last few on straightening. Rallied home and was closest at finish. |
| 5 | 3 | SUPER IDEAL (CC223) | K L Chui | TT | Checked and blundered at 1500 M and dropped to a rearward position on the fence. Made a ground saving trip around the turn. Rallied and made up good ground in the straight. |
| 6 | 8 | PURE ALPHA (CH008) | Y T Cheng | -- | Dropped back and taken across to the fence. Gradually moved up and settled on the fence at midfield after 1000 M. Kept chasing in the straight without the clearest running, couldn't find enough to get closer late. |
| 7 | 5 | THE ONE (CG319) | B Prebble | B | Settled 2-wide just behind the pace. Kept on steadily after straightening and took the lead briefly 100 M out. Unable to find extra to remain in contention final stages. |
| 8 | 10 | DASH (CG236) | W M Lai | B | Ridden along to be in a forward spot from widest draw. Settled 4-wide at midfield after 1000 M. Kept on steadily in the straight. |
| 9 | 14 | KA KA SMART (CG042) | H W Lai | B | Ridden out of the gates and had the early lead. 3-wide and kept within a length of the pace from 1000 M onwards. Lacked the needed response to stay with the leaders after 400 M and remained on at the same pace thereafter. |
| 10 | 4 | DECAGONAL (CH244) | F Coetzee | B1 | Settled in a prominent position behind the leader. Kept on only fairly in the straight and unable to turn up a notch. |
| 11 | 12 | RAMPANT LION (CH068) | S Dye | -- | Gradually slipped towards a rearward position and trailed field 1000 M out. Last on straightening and made up ground by running past tired runners. |
| 12 | 1 | SOUTHERN EMPEROR (CH223) | G Mosse | BO1 | Settled at midfield or behind. 4-wide making home turn and near last on straightening. Only ran past tired runners in the straight. |
| 13 | 2 | LIVERBIRD (CE055) | E Saint-Martin | B | Raced very wide and without cover at midfield or worse. Failed to quicken after straightening and weakened final stages after a hard trip. |
| 14 | 7 | GEM POWER (CH013) | C K Tong | TT | 2-wide and no worse than midfield until home turn. Had trouble keeping pace turning in and weakened in the straight. |
