1 | 2 | SUPER FANTASY (CD162) | M Chadwick | -- | Camped on the back of the leader. As the pace quickened was 2 lengths off the front runner on home turn. Make good ground early in the straight finding the lead inside the 100 M, drawing a margin late. |
2 | 7 | SUPER FAMILY (CJ153) | H W Lai | B | Scooted along in front from the outside alley to lead for most of the trip. Showed good resilience to stay in the frame. |
3 | 13 | DANEPRINT (CC221) | B Prebble | B | Raced well back in the event, 2-wide with cover. Commenced to peel out after the 600, came wide on the circle and closed off well without threatening. |
4 | 4 | MYTHIC STEED (CD208) | P H Lo | -- | Travelled just behind the speed 1 off with cover. Never quickened but kept on at the same pace for the length of the home straight. |

6 | 6 | FOREVER RICHES (CG174) | Y T Cheng | B | Raced midfield on the fence. Went to the post dourly. |
7 | 3 | GOOD TIME CHARLIE (CJ207) | W C Marwing | P/H/TT | Bounded in the air when the gates opened and struck its head on an overhead bar in the barriers. Consequently lost ground settling with the back makers along the paint. Made some late ground in the run to the line. |

13 | 1 | DIAMOND PRINCE (CJ172) | T H So | SR | Raced in 3rd position, 1 off. Enjoyed the run of the race and had every chance. Gave ground quickly inside the furlong. |
