| 1 | 8 | MEGA CASTLE (L333) | O Doleuze | B | Camped 3 back the fence. Was 1 spot further back after the 600m, rallied strongly to assume control 100m from home. |
| 2 | 12 | LUCKY ARMY (L230) | Y T Cheng | H/TT | Not the best to begin settling just off midfield, 2 deep with cover. Closed off soundly. |
| 3 | 9 | GORGEOUS RULER (CK403) | T Clark | B/TT | Enjoyed a nice run in the race 1 out 1 back. Stayed on well in the run to the line. |
| 4 | 1 | EAST OCEAN (CK340) | G Mosse | B/TT | Settled worse than midfield but was left racing 3 wide without cover on the circle. Crept forward after the 700m and kept up a game effort to finish in the frame. |
| 5 | 7 | DAILY DOUBLE (CK043) | B Doyle | -- | Parked behind midfield the fence with cover. Made some late ground between runners in the straight. . |
| 6 | 6 | MACASSAR (L382) | D Whyte | -- | Slow to begin travelling towards the rear, 2-3 wide with cover. Came widest in the home straight and passed tiring runners. |
| 7 | 5 | ICE FIRE (CJ272) | M Barzalona | H/SR/XB | Pushed along early but managed to only settle with the backmakers along the paint. Worked home fairly without ever threatening. |
| 8 | 4 | FLYING KEEPER (M191) | M Guyon | B/TT | Slowly away settling back in the field, 3 wide with cover. Swung deep on the home turn but made no impression in the final straight. |
| 9 | 11 | GORGEOUS LIFE (CK327) | T H So | B/TT | Worked forward to eventually cross and settled in 2nd position 1 off without cover. Faded after the furlong. |
| 10 | 2 | GOLDEN BOY (CJ263) | K C Leung | B/TT | Did plenty of work early to eventually cross and lead along the fence after the 1000m. Handed up near the 600m, shifted into a 1 off line but didn't chase thereafter. |
| 11 | 3 | MUSTANG (CK351) | C Y Ho | B | Broke well then was retrained and settled back in the field. Caught 3 wide without cover and was allowed to stride forward at the 800m and crossed to the fence near the 600m in the lead. Weakened in the run home. |
| 12 | 10 | SONOFTHEWEST (L063) | M Du Plessis | B/TT | Rolled forward and box seated after the 1000m. Was 3 back after the 600m, but nevertheless failed to make any impression after having every chance. |
