| 1 | 4 | WINNING SCHOLAR (CJ273) | D Whyte | B-/PC2 | Jumped well. Rolled to lead on fence 900M. Held a 1L advantage turning in. Widened the break by 3Ls inside final furlong but was seriously challenged closing stages. Just lasted. |
| 2 | 8 | DARPANA (CK256) | W C Marwing | B/TT | 2-wide at midfield early. Moved closer and shifted 3-wide turning into home. 3Ls behind the leader inside 200M and kept chasing hard. Just denied in a ding-dong finish. |
| 3 | 7 | FISHKING GLORY (L123) | T H So | CP-/TT | Midfield near the fence to home straight. Kept giving to hold 3rd narrowly. |
| 4 | 10 | BE GRATEFUL (CK194) | J Lloyd | B | Well enough away but was trapped wide. Gradually taken to race 3-wide behind midfield from 900M. Swung wider on straightening and finished off satisfactorily to make frame. |
| 5 | 9 | MISTER HORSE (L035) | M L Yeung | B | 2-wide behind midfield to home straight. Ran on fairly well and nearly made frame. |
| 6 | 12 | KINGSTON MARBLE (CE244) | W M Lai | B | One-off behind leader. Remained one-paced in the straight until weakened final stages. |
| 7 | 1 | QUANTUM EXPRESS (CK166) | C Y Ho | H/TT | Began very awkwardly and lost a considerable amount of ground. Tacked on the back of the field on fence 900M. Peeled out into final stretch and made decent headway. |
| 8 | 5 | OASIS DAVIS (CK138) | B Doyle | SR | Behind midfield on fence to home straight. Beat tired runners home. |
| 9 | 3 | HIGH RETURN (CK164) | Y T Cheng | B2 | Wide and without cover ahead of midfield to home straight. Couldn't turn up a notch thereafter and faded final 150M. |
| 10 | 11 | TOUT VA BIEN (CJ020) | C K Tong | P | Tracked leader on fence to home straight. Found nothing when the race got serious. |
| 11 | 6 | BROTHERS IN ARMS (CJ070) | O Doleuze | B-/PC2 | Away in line. Gradually eased to race 2-wide towards rear early. Same position home turn. No show in the straight. |
| 12 | 2 | CHINA DRAGON (L104) | B Prebble | B- | Back and wide with last few always. Never in the hunt. |
