Horse Name | Jockey | Gear | Comment |
| 1 | 7 | SECRET SHAM (P174) | N Callan | H | Raced keenly in the early stages settling behind midfield, the fence. Quickened nicely to hit the front near the 100m, finished off willingly. |
| 2 | 4 | FUJIAN SPIRIT (N397) | U Rispoli | B/H | Raced in second position, outside the leader. Was still in front approaching the 100m but was overhauled soon after, kept on gamely. |
| 3 | 9 | SMART KIDS (CL253) | Y T Cheng | TT | Obtained the box seat & travelled well in transit. Was held up for clear running until the furlong. Finished off soundly once in the clear. |
| 4 | 6 | VITAL GOLD (N398) | T Clark | SR1 | Settled in last position close to the running rail, with cover. Took inside runs in the straight and finished off nicely. |
| 5 | 13 | HAPPY CHAMPION (N027) | C Y Ho | TT | Proved difficult to settle early, and then was posted 3 deep without cover on the circle, travelling just behind the speed. Kept whacking away in the run home despite being inconvenienced near the 50m. |
| 6 | 12 | BOMBER JET (N225) | C K Tong | H/XB | Parked midfield, 3 deep with cover. Kept on one paced in the home straight. |
| 7 | 5 | OPEN SESAME (CL091) | G Mosse | TT | Raced keenly along the paint in the early stages, shifted out to travel 2 wide with cover after the 800m, whilst in a prominent position. Was finishing off fairly until crowded near the 50m. Not ridden thereafter. (see incident report) |
| 8 | 14 | FAY DEEP (P071) | K C Leung | -- | Went back from a wide gate travelling towards the rear, 3 deep with cover. Made steady progress down the outside in final stretch. |
| 9 | 8 | BEST JADE TRIUMPH (P070) | M L Yeung | -- | Camped midfield, 2 deep with cover. Failed to find any extra in the run home, plodded to the line. |
| 10 | 10 | WINNAM (P119) | K C Ng | -- | Sent forward and coasted along in the lead travelling on the fence. Still there at the furlong but faded over the final 50m. |
| 11 | 1 | MENTOR (N017) | C Y Lui | P-/B2 | Began only fairly & after being tightened for room at the start failed to go the early speed, settling towards the rear of the field, 1 off with cover. Failed to make any impression in the straight. |
| 12 | 2 | AFFLUENCE OF RAIN (CL363) | W C Marwing | B/TT | Missed the start badly and then improved to travel along the paint, settling with the backmakers, had cover. Plugged away to the line. |
| 13 | 11 | BORN TO WIN (N386) | M Chadwick | H1 | Ridden with some patience early, but was caught 4 deep without cover on the circle, midfield. Never likely. |
| 14 | 3 | DRAGON BACHELOR (P128) | D Whyte | B | Settled worse than midfield, 2 deep with cover. Shifted out to race 3-4 deep approaching the home turn, with cover. Lost momentum when disappointed for running near the 350m, never got going thereafter. |
