| 1 | 10 | BEAUTIFUL DREAMER (CH108) | K C Ng | B | Pushed early to race in leading section. Hung on well home straight to repel rivals. |
| 2 | 5 | PROSPEROUS (L054) | K C Leung | -- | Switched to rear after start. Improved along the fence to reach midfield turning in. Saw daylight and dashed strongly after 200M but was fended off by the winner. |
| 2 | 7 | CHINA GOOD (L258) | B Doyle | SR | Taken in rear from high draw. Took inside run rounding home turn. Found clear run on rail and finished off satisfactorily final 100M to snatch 2nd at post. |
| 4 | 1 | LUCKY RED (CJ059) | D Whyte | -- | Slow to begin and was then crowded for room. Pressed to resume a forward spot on fence from 800M. Held a 1L advantage into final stretch. Clung on until overhauled closing stages. |
| 5 | 3 | SPEARHEAD (M083) | H W Lai | SR/TT | Ahead of midfield on fence to home straight. Kept on but lacked the finishing touch of the principals. |
