| Placing | Horse No |
Horse Name | Jockey | Gear | Comment |
| 1 | 9 | OUTDOOR PEGASUS (CL173) | H W Lai | -- | Raced in a 2-wide position behind midfield, taken to 3-wide passing 800M and gradually moved into contention, made rapid headway in straight to hit the lead 150M out and continued gamely late stages. |
| 2 | 8 | HAPPY BOY (CL299) | G Mosse | -- | Towards the rear and unhurried along the inside, angled out passing 400M to improve, closed off the race well but couldn't quite get to the winner. |
| 3 | 13 | DRAGON FIGHTER (CL260) | B Prebble | -- | Began awkwardly, raced keenly without cover in a 3-wide position just off the pace, briefly led mid straight but couldn't stay with the first two through the final 150M. |
| 4 | 1 | SOVIET PEARL (CK187) | K C Leung | -- | Raced near last about 6Ls off the pace, finished off willingly inside 300M to take 4th close home. |
| 5 | 14 | HAPPY PRESTIGE (CL081) | Y T Cheng | B | Along the fence and raced within striking distance throughout, loomed 300M but couldn't sustain run over the final 150M. |
| 6 | 2 | HANDSOME ZULU (M024) | C Y Ho | -- | Went forward to press leader, kept on to 150M, flattened out final stages. (Jockey reported his saddle shifted in early part of the straight.) |
| 7 | 5 | FOREVER ELATION (CK215) | O Doleuze | B-/TT | Towards the rear 2-wide about 6Ls off the pace, swung to the outside of home straight to commence his run, kept on one-paced. |
| 8 | 3 | ABLE SPEED (CK210) | D Beadman | B/H/TT | Patiently held up on the outside of the last pair, had to switch widest in the straight for a run, passed some tiring rival while making no impression on the leaders. |
| 9 | 6 | ALMIGHTY WINDPOWER (CL272) | J Lloyd | -- | Raced very keenly in midfield and failed to mount a serious challenge turning into the straight. |
| 10 | 11 | BEST FRIEND (CH240) | C K Tong | -- | Checked at the start, restrained to last and taken across to the fence, nudged along 600M out but could only make very limited progress in the straight. |
| 11 | 7 | BULLISH CASH (CH049) | G Cheyne | TT | Positioned 3-wide in midfield but came up empty leaving the home turn, never a factor. |
| 12 | 4 | BEAUTY FOREVER (CK074) | M L Yeung | B/TT | Taken to the rail soon after the start, never better than midfield, badly outpaced passing 250M and was well beaten. |
| 13 | 10 | TREASURE LANDS (CL407) | T Angland | SR1 | Ordinary jump, soon sped to the lead and took them along at a decent pace, headed near 250M and weakened rapidly in late stages. |
| 14 | 12 | EUPHEMISM (CL413) | Z Purton | B/TT1 | 2-wide in the group chasing the pace, not quickened in straight, out of contention 200M and eased. |
