Horse Name | Jockey | Gear | Comment |
| 1 | 6 | ROMPING (CK038) | K T Yeung | B | Hit ground first, led field easily, kept 2Ls clear throughout and aided by front runner advantage, found another gear straightening, kicked clear and drew away for a commanding victory. |
| 2 | 3 | FLEET COMMAND (CK077) | J Lloyd | B1 | Bounced out OK, positioned well first behind leader, travelled 3Ls away on bend, eased out turning, tried hard but unable to run down winner. |
| 3 | 11 | UNION'S STAR (CK117) | Y T Cheng | -- | Began in line, rolled forward to race outside leader, had chance 2Ls behind leader to turn, same margin down turning, couldn't match dash of winner but stuck on respectably. |
| 4 | 10 | PRESTO (CJ048) | C W Wong | -- | No early pace, shared rear racing 7Ls from top end, saved ground on bend, still had job to do on turning, made many lengths along inside in straight to make frame. |
| 5 | 2 | SURVEY SURVEY (CH070) | C K Tong | XB/TT | Standard getaway, ended up just behind midfield 6Ls from lead, even run in mid-section, improved 3 wide turning, battled final 200 M. |
| 6 | 1 | O'REILLY RALLY (CH266) | M Chadwick | TT | Began well enough, didn't press on and trapped 3 wide without cover 4Ls back, used too much in run, struggling turning and just battled away in straight. (See Racing Incidents.) |
| 7 | 13 | CLASSA (CK267) | H W Lai | -- | Began reasonably, assumed box seat 1-out-1-back 4Ls off speed, had good run to bend, didn't find much when asked and just kept on at same speed, steadied 100 M. |
| 8 | 9 | WALKONTHEWILDSIDE (CG033) | B Doyle | -- | Taken back from a wide gate, raced 7Ls back at rear on rails, made progress 3 wide to bend, looked a place chance briefly at 300 M but didn't run on final furlong. |
| 9 | 8 | WHITE JADE (CK131) | D Beadman | H-/XB | Average jump, settled in behind midfield 6Ls back, had cover 3 wide but proved difficult to settle, lost position approaching bend, just finished off fairly. (See Racing Incidents.) |
| 10 | 12 | ABOVE ALL (CJ215) | W C Marwing | B1 | Drifted back from a wide gate, shared rear 7Ls away from lead, always 3 wide with cover, still well back to bend, never really likely. |
| 11 | 14 | CLEMENT ELITE (CH004) | M W Leung | XB | Checked early, mustered to race 5 to 6Ls back on fence, had even run thereafter, had plenty to do same margin down to bend, lacked a close in straight. |
| 12 | 4 | KING ENCOSTA (CG247) | J Winks | B/TT | Well enough away, raced midfield 4 to 5Ls away on rails, inside runs appeared turning, lacked a pick up and gradually faded out in straight. |
| 13 | 7 | TAN TAT BABY (CH315) | M Du Plessis | -- | No early pace, caught 4 wide without cover 5Ls away from lead, used plenty in run, dropped out when emptied from turn. |
| 14 | 5 | QUICK TOUCH (CJ196) | W M Lai | TT | Slow to muster, received a bad check at 1200 M, raced 4 wide with cover 7Ls away at rear, never really likely with track aiding leaders, struggled in run home. |
