| 1 | 11 | FLYING HIGH (E204) | M Chadwick | TT | Jumped only fairly, waited with towards the rear along the stand's rail, ran on powerfully passing 300M, produced the fastest 400M finish of the day to nail the leader near line. |
| 2 | 9 | CHEVAL VALIANT (E336) | Y L Chung | B/H/TT | Sped to the lead and soon crossed to the stand's side, built a clear margin halfway, kept on well under 7lb claimer only to be nailed by winner close home. |
| 3 | 2 | METRO WARRIOR (D387) | L Hewitson | B | Chased the clear leader, roused along 350M but lacked the needed response, battled on to take a non-threatening 3rd. |
| 4 | 8 | SEASONS WIT (H223) | Z Purton | B1/TT | Gradually moved forward to be 3rd on settling, waited with until 250M but found less than expected, soon no threat to first 2, just missed 3rd in a photo finish. |
| 5 | 3 | PLEASANT ENDEAVOR (E114) | K C Leung | B | In 4th place 3-4Ls off the runaway leader, kept on same pace final 400M, failed to threaten first two. |
| 6 | 1 | RUN RUN COOL (E322) | H Bowman | PC | Not hurried after the start, reserved at the rear 7Ls off the pace, stayed on mildly over final 400M and never dangerous. |
| 7 | 5 | CALIFORNIA RAD (D147) | M F Poon | B/TT | From draw 14 moved up along the stand's rail to race in midfield, battled on one paced final 400M, never a serious threat. (Bled.) |
