Horse Name | Jockey | Gear | Comment |
| 1 | 3 | LUCKY EVER (T293) | A Badel | XB-/B/TT | Settled down 3-4Ls off the pace in midfield, 3-wide trip to straight, worked home powerfully final 250M to wear down the race favourite in the shadows of post. (Trainer : improved performance attributable to gear change.) |
| 2 | 7 | D B PIN (V344) | Z Purton | -- | Jumped well from draw 1, soon moved up to share the lead on the inner, fought on well under pressure passing 300M, headed near finish. |
| 3 | 4 | PERPETUAL TREASURE (S191) | H T Mo | TT | Positively ridden to find the lead under 10lb claimer, on the pace 2-wide, fought on well final 300M, turned one pace final 100M holding on for 3rd just. |
| 4 | 1 | MERION (V080) | N Callan | B | Jumped on terms to be 5th just over 2Ls off the pace, driven out 400M and kept up his chase on leaders, just missed 3rd. |
| 5 | 2 | CLEVER BEAVER (S352) | J Moreira | TT | Guided to a midfield spot along the rails, 7th at 400M and 3-4Ls off leaders, plugged on into modest 5th near 100M but at no stage did he seriously threaten leaders. |
| 6 | 6 | DRAGON GENERAL (T400) | U Rispoli | B/TT | Began well, restrained to a midfield position along the 2-path, 4Ls to make up 400M, stayed on mildly without threatening. |
| 7 | 11 | WATER DIVINER (V356) | N Rawiller | B/H/TT | Eased back from draw 13, in rear pair 6-7Ls behind leaders, brought wide 500M, finished off reasonably well but had too much ground to make up. |
| 8 | 10 | KEEN VENTURE (A024) | B Prebble | XB/TT | Not hurried early stages, near the rear 6Ls off the pace, hung out passing 600M and jockey unable to ride it out fully until 150M, made some late headway. (Racing manners unacceptable) |
| 9 | 9 | MALMSTEEN (V059) | S De Sousa | XB1 | Chased leaders, raced fiercely when steadied to obtain cover 1000M, ran on one pace entering straight, couldn't go on 250M. |
| 10 | 12 | ROYAL ELITE (V300) | C Y Ho | B/H/TT | Taken back to be last on settling, 7Ls off at 400M, failed to present as a winning chance on straightening, only made minor headway. |
| 11 | 5 | BACK IN BLACK (T358) | K Teetan | B/TT | Restrained on jumping, shifted to a 3-wide spot with cover, 5Ls off the pace midfield 800M, ran on one-pace in straight, never likely. |
| 12 | 14 | EXPERTO CREDE (A110) | C Schofield | H1 | Towards the rear, badly hampered by a rival rounding home turn, took a while for the jockey to balance the horse early straight, closed off fairly when ridden out 300M. (Jockey questioned.) |
| 13 | 8 | HAMMER KING (V034) | S Clipperton | B | Caught wide in midfield throughout from draw 14, failed to pick up ground turning home. (Irregular Heart Rhythm / Blood in trachea.) |
| 14 | 13 | SILLY BUDDIES (S054) | K K Chiong | B | Rushed forward and chased leaders 3-wide without cover, no extra 300M and gave way. |
