| 1 | 1 | ENERGETIC BOY (CH153) | D Whyte | B | Jumped fairly well but was eased to sit 2-wide towards rear from 1600 M. Took inside run rounding home turn and was 6Ls down into final stretch. Got traffic until 100 M. Dashed well between runners to snatch victory final strides. |
| 2 | 2 | ROCKET AND GOLD (CH015) | Y T Cheng | B/TT | Sat towards rear on fence after start. Made run along rail passing 600 M and was 5Ls off turning into home. Peeled out to challenge but was held up until passing 250 M. Ran on well to beat all but the winner near the post. |
| 3 | 10 | BRAVO HORSE (CH312) | H W Lai | B/SR | Away in line and was driven forward after start. Taken to rail ahead of midfield from 1500 M. Urged from 650 M and was on leader's back turning in. Fought on but couldn't contain the finishing effort of the front pair close home. |
| 4 | 5 | GOLDEN OPPORTUNITY (CJ015) | K C Leung | B | Travelled on fence in midfield after start. Improved gradually and was 2Ls behind leader approaching home straight. Every chance final 150 M but failed to sustain its effort final stages. |
| 5 | 7 | FEEL THE FUN (CJ205) | C K Tong | B1 | In search of cover from high draw. Landed a 2-wide spot in midfield from 1500 M. Shaken up outside field and was 6Ls back at bend. Made up good ground thereafter without seriously troubling the principals. |
| 6 | 4 | GREAT SHOW (CK001) | K W Leung | B | Pressed early to go forward but was caught 3-wide ahead of midfield. Similar spot back straight. One-paced to conclude. |

| 8 | 3 | CLOVIS (CH044) | D Beadman | XB/H | Asked to maintain in the leading section one-off the fence through to home straight. Hit front at 250 M but was overhauled 150 M. |
| 9 | 12 | LAZY BUDDIES (CC208) | M Chadwick | B | Somewhat detached at rear on fence for the major part of the race despite the effort of rider. Beat tired runners home. |
| 10 | 11 | VITALITY CHAMP (CD301) | W M Lai | B/XB | Handy position until no extra gear top of home straight. Faded final 100 M. |
| 11 | 8 | LIGHTNING MOUNT (CH082) | Z Purton | B | 2-wide at midfield early and middle stages. Couldn't follow from 500 M. Out of contention before home straight. |
