| 1 | 10 | TIME SUPREME (CE012) | E Saint-Martin | -- | Slow to begin, settled 3 back 7Ls behind the leader, shuffled back further before the home bend, came 4-wide on the turn, closed the race off with a strong rally, cut down rivals inside final 50 M. |
| 2 | 9 | MELLIFLUOUS (CH212) | D Whyte | V/XB/H | Moderate jump, soon taken to the rails racing prominently behind pace makers, enjoyed run of race, stuck to task in straight to finish 2nd. |
| 3 | 4 | VIVA HONG KONG (CJ097) | K T Yeung | CP/TT | Away with the rest, pressed on to maintain a midfield position not far off the leaders, ridden along turning in, took a while to gather speed and came home strongly. |
| 4 | 2 | DISGUISE (CG004) | O Doleuze | B | Jumped okay, worked across to a rail position, took time to muster speed, 4Ls behind the leader on the turn, ran into traffic on straightening, showed acceleration once clear at 300 M. |
| 5 | 5 | FAT DRAGON (CD130) | P H Lo | -- | Even break, hard ridden to stay in touch with the leaders, ended up in a forward position wide and without cover, battled on gamely in the straight, weakened last 100 M. |
| 6 | 7 | YANKEE (CH271) | D Beadman | -- | Began with them, showed early pace to go to front, shadowed leader 2-wide, led briefly in the straight but tired towards the line, not beaten far. |
| 7 | 1 | YOUNG HERO (CH071) | M Du Plessis | -- | Jumped well from an inside draw, enjoyed an easy run on the rails 3Ls off the leader in midfield, ran on in the straight but was never threatening. |
| 8 | 12 | KING HOGAN (CE257) | H W Lai | B | Standard jump, eased back intentionally for a rail position, travelled well back before improving on the turn, unable to quicken up and ran home one-paced. |
| 9 | 11 | EYE WITNESS (CG027) | K L Chui | XB/TT | Reasonable jump, lacked early speed to stay with the rest, soon settled towards the rear 9Ls behind the leader, found little on straight, only ran past beaten runners. |
| 10 | 8 | ELFHELM (CC342) | W C Marwing | B | Well enough away, took a spot towards the rear travelling 3-wide, shuffled further back on the turn, dropped out quickly soon after straightening. |
| 11 | 3 | TOWERING FEELING (CG262) | Z Purton | TT1 | Unable to work across from a wide draw and travelled wide for most of the race, made to work on turning, found no extra in the straight. |
| 12 | 6 | NILOMETER (CD052) | Y T Cheng | B/TT | Broke well and was pushed to a forward position, went 5-wide on the 1st bend, led from 1200 M, struggled to sustain effort on straightening, soon weakened. |
