Horse Name | Jockey | Gear | Comment |
| 1 | 9 | REAL GENEROUS (M193) | Z Purton | B/H/TT | Positively ridden out the gate, settled 4th within striking distance, loomed 300M and gave immediate response when driven, led mid-straight and surged clear. Impressive. |
| 2 | 12 | JOLLY VICTOR (N140) | R Fourie | B/TT | Held up towards the rear, settled 6-7Ls off the pace along fence, switched out and driven passing 500M, stayed on strongly to go 2nd close home, no threat to runaway winner. |
| 3 | 4 | BEAUTY TOUCH (N001) | M L Yeung | H/TT | Settled behind midfield, saved ground on the inside but got held up when the race got serious passing 450M, ran on steadily up the fence but made no impression on winner. |
| 4 | 7 | LUCKY FOREVER (M058) | K C Leung | B/SR1 | Rolled forward chasing the pace, ranked alongside leader nearing 400M, produced with every chance, plugged on final 300M but never looked like winning. |
| 5 | 1 | FAMILISTS (M102) | B Prebble | B | Crossed to the rails soon after the start, tracked leaders in 3rd, briefly threatened early straight, outpaced final 200M. |
| 6 | 3 | PERFECT CHEERS (M341) | G Mosse | B/TT | Soon led under minimal urgings, set steady pace, caught up by pursuers near 200M, faded away. |
| 7 | 2 | FUN RIDER (CK231) | T Angland | B-/CP1 | Held up behind midfield along the 2-path, bustled along 450M, kept on same pace final 300M, never a serious threat. |
| 8 | 10 | NOBLE DELUXE (M063) | W M Lai | -- | Taken across behind runners from wide draw, patiently ridden in the rear, made limited progress when put to pressure passing 350M. |
| 9 | 8 | RACING HERO (N157) | T Clark | B | Switched off to near the rear 6-7Ls off the pace, driven 400M out, taken widest into straight but had little to offer. |
| 10 | 5 | ELEGANCE KLAMMER (M228) | H W Lai | TT | Assumed a 2-wide spot in midfield, shaken up nearing the entrance of straight but was readily outpaced passing 300M, never a threat. |
| 11 | 11 | NAVEL ORANGE (P035) | Y T Cheng | B | Pushed along early stages to maintain a position in midfield, found nothing on straightening and was another disappointing effort. |
| 12 | 6 | ENABLING (M229) | T H So | B | Failed to muster speed, raced back in the field and raced 3-wide no cover, under pressure home turn, got tired turning in, eased when no chance final 200M. (Lame next day.) |
