| 3 | 13 | FIRST AMONG EQUALS (CC327) | A Delpech | B | Fairly away, drifted back to settle in rearward division 3 wide 4 to 5Ls from pace, had cover through mid-section, made wide run on turn and showed great on turn of foot late to make up ground down outside. |
| 4 | 14 | LUCKY UNICORN (CE222) | F Coetzee | -- | Jumped best, challenged for early lead, restrained from speed battle to race behind leader (good clip) pushed along from 600 M, under hard riding for most of straight and responded well to be just behind them without threatening. |
| 5 | 8 | STRONG SUN (CB305) | G Mosse | -- | Lost ground at start, taken in behind early, raced in last position 7Ls from them, began to circle 3 wide from 800 M, made run between horses in straight and closed strongly giving too great a start. |
| 6 | 2 | NOBLE MAN (CC099) | Y T Cheng | -- | Fast into stride, challenged for early lead and took up running after 300 M, kept on at solid clip, pressured throughout, held lead until 250 M but couldn't match it with them over final furlong. |
| 7 | 1 | ENGINEERING WONDER (CB300) | H W Lai | -- | Slow to begin and checked early, drifted back to race 2nd from tail, raced 2 wide 6Ls off pace, travelled on bit to turn, came between runners in straight and finished off well to be closest at finish. |
