Horse Name | Jockey | Gear | Comment |
| 1 | 1 | AMAZING CHOISIR (CH189) | C Soumillon | -- | 4Ls back in midfield with cover at 1200 M and much the same turning in, burst clear and led about 200 M out, comfortably. |
| 2 | 7 | SUPER FANTASY (CD162) | O Doleuze | TT | 4-back on fence in 9th or 10th at least 4Ls from the speed until home turn, stayed on best of the rest but no chance with the winner. |
| 3 | 11 | KEY WINNER (CG157) | Z Purton | TT | Taken back from wide gate, 2-wide in rear about 6Ls off speed until home turn, stayed on dourly down the centre to nick a place late. |
| 4 | 6 | GALLANT FALCON (CD194) | G Mosse | V-/B2/TT | 3-back on fence in midfield about 4Ls off the speed until home straight, kept on fairly without threatening a quinella finish. |
| 5 | 4 | LUCKY MONEY STAR (CH273) | C W Wong | B-/CP1/TT | Led by 1L on fence at 1100 M, headed by the winner about 200 M out and one-paced thereafter. |
| 6 | 9 | FLYING KENNY (CC244) | M W Leung | V | One from rear about 7Ls behind early tempo and 6Ls behind cornering for home, plugged on through some tired rivals late. |
| 7 | 2 | MARVELLOUS (CH026) | F Coetzee | B/TT | 3-wide with cover in midfield at 600 M and 4Ls down turning for home, one-paced thereafter. |
| 8 | 12 | KING OF SHAVER (CH041) | G Boss | B | Caught 3-wide no cover throughout, about 2Ls or 3Ls back in 5th or so until home turn, extra work took its toll on the run-in. |
| 9 | 5 | CARE FREE MIDAS (CH053) | D Whyte | -- | 3-wide with cover towards rear initially, 5Ls down turning for home off final turn, hung in late, mediocre performance. |
| 10 | 8 | MYTHIC STEED (CD208) | P H Lo | B/H | Disputed early tempo but settled into box-seat position from 1000 M until home turn, petered out tamely in the finish. |
| 11 | 10 | PRIMIATA (CG226) | Y T Cheng | B/TT | Covered up in 4th or 5th between 2Ls and 3Ls from the speed until home turn, without clear running turning for home but always well held anyway. |
| 12 | 3 | TREASURE RAIDERS (CE049) | B Prebble | V | Disputed early running, over-raced at halfway when 1L down in 2nd, hard pressed to remain in touch turning for home, beaten before the 200 M. |
