2 | 14 | TREASURE PLANET (CG117) | W M Lai | XB/H | Disputed early pace on fence a neck clear from 800M to home turn despite hanging out slightly, headed about 300 M but rallied well, went down fighting. |
3 | 2 | NEW TRIUMPH (CG105) | S K Sit | CP- | Nice position in 3rd on fence 2Ls behind leading pair until home turn, stayed on well along to fence but just couldn't pick up the leading pair. |
4 | 3 | TREASURABLE (CH017) | D Whyte | B- | About 4Ls off pace in 4th or 5th through to home turn, stayed on quite well without really threatening the leading trio. |

6 | 1 | SALUT BEAUTE (CB189) | K T Yeung | TT | Handy position 2Ls back in 4th at the 800 M, under pressure when 4Ls back in 5th at final turn, finished off at the one pace. |

8 | 7 | AMAZING FORTUNE (CH235) | M Nunes | -- | Caught 3-wide without cover from 800 M to home turn when about 4Ls or 5Ls off pace around midfield, couldn't offer much more. |
9 | 5 | TERRAFERMA (CG016) | F Coetzee | B-/XB/V1/TT | Missed the start and immediately 6Ls last, improved position but same margin back in 9th turning for home, made no impression on those in front. |
10 | 11 | GREAT HERO (CH016) | C K Tong | B1 | Fractious in gates, 9Ls last at the 800 M, further back and struggling off home turn, never got involved. |
11 | 13 | GENERAL SPEEDEE (CG193) | D Nikolic | TT | Always in rear, in 13th about 8Ls off pace at the 800 M, further behind on straightening, poor effort. |
12 | 6 | CENTURY SUPER STAR (CE070) | O Doleuze | BO | Slowly away, with cover about 6Ls back in 10th at the 800 M when hindered, widest (4-wide) off final bend and further back in 12th, no impression. |
13 | 8 | BRAVO BRAVO (CH119) | B Prebble | -- | Fractious in gates, never travelled well and without cover down the backstretch in midfield about 4Ls back, checked at the 800 M and lost position on the circle, eased out. (Mucus.) |
14 | 12 | CASH MONEY (CH030) | C W Wong | -- | Towards rear about 6Ls off pace at the 800 M, further behind and 3-wide in rear and hard pressed to keep up on straightening, beaten a long way out. |
