| Placing | Horse No |
Horse Name | Jockey | Gear | Comment |
| 1 | 3 | SPEEDY WARRIOR (CJ077) | B Prebble | -- | Travelled sweetly on fence in 4th or 5th about 2Ls off pace until straightening when quickening up well to lead, pulled clear decisively. |
| 2 | 9 | SUNNY SMILES (CJ073) | W C Marwing | -- | 6Ls back in 10th when pressured to improve 500 M out, widest (5-wide) spinning for home, ran on well for 2nd but no hope with the winner. |
| 3 | 5 | BREAKING POINT (CJ179) | O Doleuze | PC | 3-back on fence about 3Ls back in 7th at halfway, 2Ls down in 4th turning in, did enough to place. |
| 4 | 8 | RAIN OF THUNDER (CJ352) | Z Purton | -- | 4-back on the rails about 5Ls off pace at 1200 M, closer and travelling well entering home straight, finished off only fairly. |
| 5 | 4 | DR WELL (CD165) | K C Leung | V | Best away and no more than 1L clear on fence from 1200 M to 600 M, headed at top of home straight and steadily faded out of the picture. |
| 6 | 6 | ROCKET AND GOLD (CH015) | C W Wong | SR-/B1/TT1 | Slowly away, one from rear about 8Ls off speed at halfway, recovered a little ground without threatening. |
| 7 | 2 | MULTI MILLIONS (CD207) | G Mosse | B-/SR2 | Always worse than midfield and at least 4Ls or 5Ls from the pace, never dangerous. |
| 8 | 11 | TRAVEL LEADER (CD226) | Y T Cheng | CP | 2-wide and 4Ls back in 8th at 1200 M and edged closer in 5th turning for home, lacked a turn of foot. |
| 9 | 1 | SPIRIT OF LO PAN (CH140) | C Soumillon | B | Held the 'one-out-one-back' position through first half, losing prominence and pressured entering home straight, petered out tamely. (Questioned for poor performance.) |
| 10 | 7 | FORTUNE WARRIOR (CD096) | M Du Plessis | B | Always rearward, 9Ls last at the 800 M, still last turning for home, never a factor. |
| 11 | 12 | GOLDEN OPPORTUNITY (CJ015) | C K Tong | B | Disputed early pace, a neck 2nd at 1100 M, over 1L back in 3rd and ridden along to stay in touch turning for home, faded out. |
| 12 | 10 | BULB TREASURE (CH048) | W M Lai | -- | Pressed on out 4-wide at first, 3-wide no cover 1L back 2nd at 1000 M, struggling to keep up 500 M out, very weak and eased late. |
