1 | 1 | GALLANT HUSSAR (CJ017) | J Lloyd | B | Settled in midfield, soon came to challenge after straightening, ran on well to take charge over 100 M out, won going away. |
2 | 8 | SEIZE THE DAY (CJ152) | Y T Cheng | B | Began moderately, ridden along in midfield far side before improving to 1L 3rd coming out of back straight when 3-wide without cover, similar turning for home, no answer to winner's late burst of speed inside final 200 M, plugged on. |
3 | 4 | HIGH NOTE (CK081) | D Beadman | B/SR1 | Broke well from a low draw, held slender advantage until headed by eventual winner over 100 M out when found no extra. |
4 | 5 | SPLENDID SAILS (CG077) | B Prebble | B/SR | Never far off settling in 4th to straight, could only produce moderate headway without quickening. |
5 | 14 | KING OF TURF (CJ102) | M L Yeung | BO | Towards rear, picked up nicely under pressure inside final 200 M, did best work late. |
6 | 10 | GLITTERING (CJ343) | Z Purton | XB | Close up on rails early, shuffled back to forward of midfield around the bend, saved ground turning in, kept on well to the line. |
7 | 12 | TOP SPEED (CH019) | H W Lai | B | Began moderately, remained in last few to straight, fought on under pressure down centre of track to be nearest at finish. |

11 | 3 | LIGHTNING SUCCESS (CK122) | B Doyle | SR/B1 | Sluggish at start travelling in last few, given reminders approaching home turn, made no impression in straight. |
12 | 7 | HEAVENLY POWERS (CK141) | C K Tong | CP-/B1/H1 | Soon dropped to last few, never a danger. |
