Horse Name | Jockey | Gear | Comment |
| 1 | 6 | GLENEALY STAR (CH284) | B Prebble | TT | Broke well, close up when hampered and lost 2Ls at 1000 M bend, had to settle in midfield on rails for the length of back straight, same turning in, fought on determinedly under pressure to just get up on line. |
| 2 | 3 | LONGWAH RISING (CJ297) | K T Yeung | -- | Jumped well from a wide draw, soon crossed to drop anchor behind pace, stalked leader into straight and soon came to challenge under pressure, held every chance only to be nosed out in the shadows of the post. |
| 3 | 12 | SEASON LINKZ (CK133) | M W Leung | B | In a last few after breaking from a poor draw, picked up to just worse than midfield short after jump, remained towards rear turning in, responded well inside final 200 M despite shifting ground, did best work late. |
| 4 | 9 | HAPPY GO LUCKY (CH127) | C K Tong | TT | Broke well, settled in forward of midfield with rails run, came within 3Ls of pace turning in, fought on steadily to be nearest at finish. |
| 5 | 7 | WINE WIN (CG018) | M L Yeung | B | Driven along from middle draw and attempted to make all, held clear advantage down far side and still maintained a 1L break turning in, unable to sustain effort and overhauled close to home. |
| 6 | 8 | SUPER SNIPPETS (CG217) | Z Purton | B | Niggled along in midfield early, awkwardly placed behind runners for a good part of back straight and shuffled back, made good impression to finish off race from towards rear into home straight. |
| 7 | 1 | TOP NEWS (CK196) | H W Lai | -- | Began moderately, ridden along to hold midfield spot, remained same turning into straight, fought on steadily under pressure without quickening. |
| 8 | 5 | COUNTRY MAGIC (CH069) | K L Chui | TT | Began with others from a wide draw, raced wide without cover in better than midfield down far side, rolled forward to hold one-out-one-back position in 2nd from the Rock, similar turning in but tired under pressure inside final 200 M. |
| 9 | 2 | BLEDISLOE (CK073) | J Lloyd | B | Jumped moderately, travelled in better than midfield mainly in 4th far side, similar turning for home, had no more to give after straightening. |
| 10 | 10 | INVINCIBLEKINDNESS (CK253) | O Doleuze | -- | Soon taken back from the widest draw to race in last few, raced awkwardly at times down far side, never nearer. (See Racing Incidents.) |
| 11 | 11 | SUGAR ON TOP (CG274) | W M Lai | B | Very slowly away, always struggling at the back. |
| 12 | 4 | FAVOURITE SUPREME (CH203) | Y T Cheng | TT | Began fairly, tightened on rails and lost 2Ls approaching 1000 M bend, never recovered. |
