Horse Name | Jockey | Gear | Comment |
| 1 | 6 | KING DERBY (P225) | Z Purton | B | Not hurried after the start, held up 3Ls behind leader along the inside, switched out near 250M, closed well to lead 100M out, strode clear. |
| 2 | 9 | APOLLO CAVALIER (N262) | Y T Cheng | H | Always prominent outside leader, ran on under pressure in straight but not finishing pace of winner final 200M, held on for 2nd. |
| 3 | 5 | CHEETAH BOY (L192) | C K Tong | B/H | Failed to muster speed despite ridden along, last turning in, shifted out under pressure in straight, stayed on well to claim 3rd but could never get near to the winner. |
| 4 | 10 | CLEVER BEAVER (S352) | K C Ng | TT | Strode forward from wide barrier, pressed leaders in a 3-wide position without cover, looked beaten at 200M but renewed effort to go 4th near the line. |
| 5 | 8 | KIROV (S277) | C Y Ho | -- | Crowded for room at the start, raced at the rear along the fence, ran on steadily over final 200M. (Jockey questioned re riding in the straight.) |
| 6 | 1 | AMBITIOUS KING (P242) | J Moreira | B/TT | Broke sharply, raced keenly in the lead, joined by rivals passing 200M and unable to find extra, weakened to 6th. |
| 7 | 11 | GETAWAY GUY (N142) | M L Yeung | B/SR/TT | Dropped back to the rear, taken wide 500M, stayed on mildly and never a serious threat. |
| 8 | 3 | LONDON WALK (P410) | H W Lai | TT | Began only fairly, recovered to race just off leading trio, lacked the needed response when driven entering straight, weakened final stages. |
| 9 | 2 | COMEBACK KID (S045) | K Teetan | B/TT | Niggled along to hold his position, never travelled, dropped to near the rear approaching home straight, made no progress. |
| 10 | 7 | LAUGH OUT LOUD (P297) | W M Lai | V-/B2 | Shaken up early stages, tracked leaders, came up empty in straight, weakened to last 100M from home. |
