Horse Name | Jockey | Gear | Comment |
| 1 | 5 | FERRULE (CA157) | F Coetzee | -- | Bit keen early on racing 2-wide about 5Ls off pace, 4Ls down off the home turn, 1L down 200 M out, led 100 M out and kept on well. |
| 2 | 14 | LUCKY LAD (CA148) | M W Leung | V | Always 2Ls or 3Ls off pace in 4th place and 2-wide through to home straight, half a length back in 2nd place 200 M out, no answer to winner's finishing kick. |
| 3 | 12 | GALLANT HORSE (CA128) | C Williams | -- | Fractious in stalls beforehand, sent on to race about half a length off pace out 2-wide, led at top of home straight, headed by winner 100 M out, no extra. |
| 4 | 11 | CARRY THE NEWS (CB191) | S Dye | -- | Awkwardly away, checked 1200 M out, raced very keenly 3Ls off pace through to home straight, 2Ls down 200 M out, couldn't follow through. |
| 5 | 8 | THE DUKE (CB282) | D Whyte | B | Inconvenienced a couple of times on run to home straight when always about 2-wide and 4Ls off pace, 2Ls down 200 M out, didn't come on. |
| 6 | 1 | SEASONS TREASURE (CB310) | M Cahill | -- | No speed early on and settled 8Ls off pace and 2-wide 1000 M out, 5Ls down 200 M out, ran on fairly well to be nearest at finish. |
| 7 | 2 | ALL THE BEST (BV211) | G Mosse | B | Had the run of the race on the fence 2Ls off pace, every chance 300 M out but never looked like sticking his head in front. |
| 8 | 4 | NORTHERN FLYER (BS032) | D Dunn | -- | Settled in rear and on fence between 6Ls and 8Ls off pace down back straight, 5Ls down entering straight, never landed a blow. |
| 9 | 9 | HUANGDI (BV154) | E Saint-Martin | -- | Always towards rear about 6Ls off pace and towards inside rail, 2-wide and 5Ls down entering home straight, no further impression. |
| 10 | 10 | SUPER SPRINT (CA274) | G Schofield | -- | Caught 3-wide without cover about 5Ls off pace until about 800 M out, 4-wide 3Ls down turning in, 2Ls down and beaten 200 M out, fly jumped about 30 M from post. |
| 11 | 7 | MASTER YING (CB249) | A Marcus | -- | Led on fence 1000 M out, held narrow advantage until home straight, soon headed and weakened. |
| 12 | 3 | COLOURFUL ERA (BP234) | R Quinn | -- | 3-wide and about 6Ls off speed towards rear down back straight, 5Ls off pace turning for home, never competitive in homestretch. (Lame.) |
