| 1 | 8 | CAGA BOY (CG060) | Y T Cheng | -- | Outpaced early, ended up 3 to 4Ls back against outside rail, picked up nicely last 200 M, finished over the top of them last 100 M to score well (was advantaged by outside ground). |
| 2 | 14 | REUNION (CE258) | M W Leung | TT | Showed pace, held lead on outside rail, kept pace on and had rest chasing, still held narrow advantage at 200 M couldn't hold off late charge of winner. |
| 3 | 10 | DREAM HORSE (CG029) | F Coetzee | TT | Showed pace, shared lead between middle and outside, always prominent, still right there at 100 M but was just outlasted over concluding stages. |
| 4 | 13 | SUPER CHARGE (CC299) | S Dye | B | No real pace, tucked in at rear 4Ls off lead in middle of course, made steady progress last 300 M to steal 4th place late. |
| 5 | 12 | CRAIG'S DRAGON (CH131) | D Beadman | -- | Tardy to begin, raced 2Ls back behind horses on stand side, had a good trip with cover, picked up reasonably late closing well to be nearest on line. |
| 6 | 3 | PROFITING CHAMPION (CH123) | G Mosse | -- | Even jump, raced 2 to 3Ls back towards middle, had cover and travelled nicely throughout, closed off as usual to be right there finish. |
| 7 | 2 | GALBRAITH (CG022) | D Whyte | CP | Displayed usual pace, took a spot 1L off lead between middle and outside, close enough at 200 M, didn't close off like usual (unbalanced at 50 M) just holding ground in run to line. |
| 8 | 4 | MONEY MAN (CG115) | Z Purton | CP- | Taken to inside, showed enough pace to be equal at midpoint, gradually lost ground on leaders in run to line (clearly at a disadvantage on inside). |
| 9 | 9 | COSMO SUCCESSOR (CH118) | K L Chui | TT | Had natural pace but sat 1L away near to outside, close enough passing 400 M but found little when asked and struggled last furlong. |
| 10 | 11 | BRILLIANT FLASH (CE042) | C K Tong | B | No early pace, struggled for first part 4Ls or so away towards centre, never likely but did make some late ground passing some tired horses in run to line. |
| 11 | 7 | SOUTH CHINA ELITE (CH027) | B Prebble | -- | Had usual amount of pace to ensure prominent role, raced 1 to 2Ls back in centre of course, struggling at 200 M, weakened out noticeably thereafter. (Lame 2 days after.) |
| 12 | 1 | FAT CHOY FOREVER (CD111) | C W Wong | -- | Had speed from gates, close enough 1 to 2Ls away towards middle, found little when niggled from 300 M, folded tamely in run to line. |
| 13 | 5 | MIRACLE FORTUNE (CH292) | H W Lai | B- | No pace from outset, regathered to be 2 to 3Ls back in midfield, there to 250 M before folding weakly. |
