Horse Name | Jockey | Gear | Comment |
| 1 | 10 | BOY OH BOY (P166) | D Whyte | H-/XB- | Slotted into a 3-wide spot in mid-division, travelled smoothly in middle stages, quickened to the front 250M, dueled with runner-up final 200M, gained upper hand close home. |
| 2 | 1 | APPROVE (N299) | C Y Lui | B | Quickly into stride, relinquished the lead near 1200M, awkwardly placed behind weakening leader 500M-400M, joined eventual winner mid-straight, lost out near line. |
| 3 | 8 | VICTORY HERO (P332) | B Prebble | B/TT | Held up 2-wide in mid-division, no room early straight, shifted out 350M, closed off soundly but always held by front pair. |
| 4 | 11 | GOLD TALENT (S113) | H W Lai | -- | Began well but soon reigned back to a rearward position, switched wide 500M, closed off well 1st half of straight, turned one pace final stages. |
| 5 | 9 | CLUB LIFE (P309) | M Chadwick | B | Had tendency to hang out from the outset, badly outpaced early and middle stages, still had plenty to do turning in, closed off the race strongly final 300M. (acing manners unacceptable.) |
| 6 | 2 | RED DANCER (P264) | J Moreira | H/TT | Positioned 2-wide in the group chasing leaders, briefly threatened 300M, turned one pace passing 200M. |
| 7 | 6 | HELENE FUN STAR (N105) | G Mosse | CP/TT | Settled ahead of mid-division along the inside, lacked a turn of foot when placed under pressure, never a serious threat to leaders. |
| 8 | 14 | KING'S FOLKS (N296) | C K Tong | B | Ridden more prominently than usual, raced just off the pace, briefly led early straight, caught inside 300M, faded towards the finish. |
| 9 | 7 | KING OF PATCH (N421) | N Pinna | SR- | Held up behind midfield, stayed on mildly when driven 400M, shifted out under pressure 200M, lacked further response thereafter. |
| 10 | 12 | OLE OLE (CK301) | K C Leung | TT | Settled towards the rear, ran on only fairly turning home, never a threat to leaders. |
| 11 | 4 | CIRCUIT STAR (N220) | C Y Ho | TT | In touch behind leaders but caught 3-wide no cover throughout, steadied 250M, weakened out of the race. |
| 12 | 3 | AGIAAL (N177) | Z Purton | CP1 | Settled behind midfield, saved ground along the fence but didn't respond to riding entering straight. |
| 13 | 5 | I SMELL MONEY (M019) | A Suborics | B | Began awkwardly, rushed along and obtained the lead before home turn, came up empty and dropped out rapidly 350M. (Unacceptable performance.) |
| 14 | 13 | OWNERS' PRIDE (N044) | M Demuro | B-/TT- | Soon dropped to the rear, detached from the field passing 1000M, eased down by jockey. (Jockey reported his mount did not stretch out / Unacceptable performance.) |
