| 1 | 10 | BONDI LAD (CK121) | W M Lai | H | Jumped fastest and driven to lead 1L on rails, kept on strongly in the home straight, drew clear final 150 M, scored very easily. |
| 2 | 4 | TEAM WORK (CH276) | T H So | B | Pressed on to occupy the box-seat just behind the pacesetter, attempted to fight for lead early in home straight, could not match the strides of the winner final 150 M but did keep on well for 2nd. |
| 3 | 9 | PERFECT SPRINT (L107) | G Mosse | -- | Awkward start, held up in a fence position just behind the midfield, responded well when asked for efforts final 300 M finished off soundly for 3rd. |
| 4 | 3 | GREAT GUY (CH112) | M Chadwick | TT | Broke fastest, took time to muster and caught 3-wide early, urged along to chase the leader in middle stages, kept battling on in home straight and looks at least for a place, just missed out. |
| 5 | 2 | GLENEALY STAR (CH284) | A Suborics | TT | Out in line, driven to travel one-off 2 to 3Ls off the pace, swung widest for home, only one-paced when asked for efforts final 300 M. |
| 6 | 11 | ELEGANCE FORTUNE (CJ280) | D Whyte | -- | Bit slow to begin, niggled along to catch up to mid-division but caught 3-wide with no cover, finished off fairly well down centre of home straight without offering threats to the principals. |
| 7 | 5 | MAGIC SWEEP (CH299) | Z Purton | B | Cozily placed on rails in the mid-division, niggled along rounding the bend, had every chance in home straight but finished off disappointingly, failed to make any progress. |
| 8 | 8 | ELEGANT WIN (CG297) | O Doleuze | B/TT | Taken to the rear from gate 12, patiently ridden until the home straight, only made very limited progress along the inner. |
| 9 | 6 | SUPERIOR UNIT (CJ045) | B Doyle | B/TT | Prominently sat 1-2Ls behind the leader, responded only fairly when asked for efforts early in the home straight, could not find extra final 100 M, soon dropped out. |
| 10 | 1 | CONFUCIUS CLASSIC (CJ141) | K C Leung | CP/TT | Given a waiting ride as usual and travelled 7 to 8Ls off the pace, swung widest for home, gave no response when asked for efforts final 250 M, never competitive. |
| 11 | 7 | SUPER GOAL MASTER (CG220) | C K Tong | B/TT | Lacked early speed and ended up traveling rearward 6Ls off the pace, outpaced rounding the home turn, proved beaten soon after entering the straight. |
