| 1 | 12 | MAVERICK (CE199) | W M Lai | TT | Pushed to get across in front of the main bunch, settled just behind the leaders, travelled nicely and 1-wide throughout, dashed well last 300 M to win. |
| 2 | 6 | AMSTERDAM (CE140) | E Saint-Martin | H/TT | Eased to sit about midfield, travelled comfortably throughout 4Ls behind the leader, 1-wide early and 3 to 4-wide at home bend, not suited by the slow pace, dashed strongly 300 M to run 2nd, just missed win. |
| 3 | 10 | MATIRI KING (CE266) | Y T Cheng | V/H/TT | Pushed to sit behind the pace group, raced keenly, trapped 3-wide until the home bend, took rail and lead at 700 M quickening the race tempo, hung on until 150 M when overhauled ran on for 3rd. |
| 4 | 3 | NASA PEARL (CC068) | K L Chui | -- | Eased to sit behind midfield, 5-1/2Ls off pace, rail-run early, 2 to 3-wide at home bend, switched towards middle of straight and dashed strongly despite the slow pace. |
| 5 | 7 | SMACKO (CG132) | M Odendaal | -- | Eased to get across at the rear, more than 8Ls behind the leader, unsuited by slow pace, raced on the rail until the home bend, forced 4 to 6-wide, lost too much ground, dashed impressively 200 M despite all negative situations. |
| 6 | 5 | MASTERY (CC176) | C K Tong | TT | Eased towards the rear as usual, raced 7-1/2Ls behind the leader, 1-wide early but 3 to 5-wide at home bend, unsuited by the slow pace, dashed strongly 200 M. |

| 8 | 4 | SUMMERVILLE POWER (CD398) | D Whyte | B- | Pushed to get across in front, always prominent, benefited from the slow pace 1-wide throughout, had every chance in straight however showed no turn of foot, flattened 150 M, disappointing. |
| 9 | 1 | BEAR DOMINANCE (CD235) | M Nunes | B/TT | Slow away, raced along the rail at the back, 6-1/2Ls behind the leader, not suited by the slow tempo, lack of room 300 M little dash when clear. |
