Horse Name | Jockey | Gear | Comment |
| 1 | 3 | TIANCHI MONSTER (B350) | J Moreira | -- | Settled well in mid-division, came with a well timed challenge on straightening, fought on well to the line getting up just in time. |
| 2 | 6 | SAVVY KINGMAN (D416) | B Shinn | -- | Led as expected, set a good pace to the straight, rallied on strongly when challenged by rivals, caught by winner last few strides. |
| 3 | 9 | RIGHTEOUS DOCTRINE (C197) | M L Yeung | B/XB | From draw 1 obtained a trailing spot behind leaders, chased well turning home to be vying for lead mid-straight, outstayed by first 2 late stages. |
| 4 | 8 | WORLD FAMOUS (C288) | H Bentley | B-/XB | Went forward, prompted the pace on outside, vied for lead passing 400M, fought on well to the line, faded final 50M, edged out to 4th late. |
| 5 | 5 | GIFT OF LIFELINE (C172) | M F Poon | B | Towards the rear always, saved ground along inside, 5Ls to make up 400M, stayed on well, had to shift ground final 50M to continue improving, nearest finish. |
| 6 | 7 | DYNAMIC EAGLE (B072) | C L Chau | -- | Held up behind midfield, pushed along 500M but kept on at same speed only, never going the pace to challenge. |
| 7 | 11 | TOTAL POWER (D138) | A Hamelin | B-/CP1 | Settled towards the rear, hard pressed 600M and swung widest for home, stayed on mildly final 300M, not troubled leaders. |
| 8 | 1 | XIANG BAI QI (B336) | L Hewitson | B | Restrained to settle behind midfield, ran on fairly when asked from 400M, never dangerous. |
| 9 | 2 | LEAP OF FAITH (C386) | Z Purton | -- | Chased leaders, wide no cover until 900M, pushed along near 400M, found disappointingly little in the finish, out of contention 300M. |
| 10 | 10 | FAST PACE (C427) | C Y Ho | H | Caught wide before obtaining a midfield spot passing 1200M, wide again from 700M, gave limited response turning for home. Never threatened. |
| 11 | 12 | BEAUTY SPIRIT (B409) | M Chadwick | B/TT | In touch behind leaders, lay out 500M, soon came under pressure, weak in the finish. |
| 12 | 4 | SUPER OASIS (D085) | R Maia | B/XB2 | Began awkwardly, settled at the rear early stages, wide no cover from 700M then strode forward to race in midfield, already beaten turning home, eased when no chance. |
