| 1 | 9 | SWEET BRIAR (H044) | L Hewitson | B/TT | Had a nice run in midfield away from the rail. Straightened about 3L from the lead when just behind the leading trio before closing strongly in last furlong to charge to lead in final few strides. |
| 2 | 6 | HONG KONG HALL (G315) | H Bowman | TT | Began well and went to the lead. Travelled well on straightening when about a length clear, challenged at the 200m, dug deep to fend off immediate challengers before over-run in final few strides by fast finishing winner. |
| 3 | 10 | JUNE PLANET (H080) | B Avdulla | B/TT | Shifted across behind runners from gate 13 before settling worse than midfield between rivals. Had clear running on straightening when 5L behind before making strong late ground in last furlong to steal third in last stride. |
| 4 | 5 | GREENWICH (H328) | M Chadwick | -- | Pushed forward to race outside the leader early before steadying & racing a length behind from the 900m. Moved up to share the lead near 200m before just battling away in last 75m when being over-powered for minor place late. |
| 5 | 1 | BABY CRYSTAL (H081) | Z Purton | -- | Raced just behind leaders before hanging outwards, checking off heels & losing ground near the 850m bend. Hung outwards again near the 650m. Was ridden quietly before sharing lead near 250m before peaking 100m (must trial). |
| 6 | 4 | GREEN N WHITE (H186) | C Y Ho | TT | Began moderately before being steadied from outside gate & racing near the tail throughout. Was nearly 7L from lead on straightening before making up significant late ground in the concluding stages when charging home late. |
| 7 | 7 | REGENCY BO BO (A050) | M F Poon | B/TT | Raced in midfield away from the rail throughout. Moved into clear running on straightening when just over 4L form the lead before finishing off only one paced in the dash to the line to be beaten a similar margin. |
| 8 | 2 | TEXAS MOON (G073) | K C Leung | B | Raced in midfield along the rail throughout. Was just over 4L from the lead on straightening, stayed nearer the rail in straight before weakening a length or so to be beaten 5L in midfield. |
| 9 | 11 | DUBLIN STAR (C436) | K Teetan | B/TT | Began well but was steadied after start & taken right back to race near the tail when four wide without cover. Continued very wide around bend, was widest & 7L behind on straightening & did reasonable job to maintain margin. |
| 10 | 13 | HIGH CLOUD (G351) | M Dee | B-/XB/SR2 | Got back after start but raced three wide when worse than midfield. Had limited cover around first bend when continuing wide. Shifted wider passing the 500m, was just over 6L behind on straightening but failed to improve. |
| 11 | 12 | DEVIL AND GOLD (G443) | A Hamelin | TT2 | Shifted across behind runners after the start & raced worse than midfield along the rail. Stayed along the rail on straightening when 6L from the lead but weakened a further few lengths to be well beaten. |
| 12 | 14 | DASHING TRIUMPH (G341) | M L Yeung | CP/TT | Steadied after first 100m & taken back to race three wide near the rear in the middle stages. Was last and just 8L from the lead on straightening but did little in the straight & weakened to be well beaten. |
| 13 | 3 | COURIER MAGIC (H290) | L Currie | CP/TT | Reared at the start and lost significant ground before ridden hard to catch up to the body of the field near the 900m. Weakened out in the straight to be beaten over 10L but had excuse after bungling the start. |
| 14 | 8 | CURLING SPEED (H015) | H T Mo | B | Was racing 4th away from the rail when badly hampered & taken out very wide by rival runner when making 850m bend, consequently lost a few lengths. Began losing ground before straightening & weakened out to be long last. |
