| 1 | 10 | CALIFORNIA JOY (T406) | J Moreira | B/TT | Settled forward of midfield, 1 off the fence early. Loomed up from 400m, and showed good turn of foot to kick clear from 200m. Slightly weak late and just held out fast finishing 2nd. |
| 2 | 9 | REDWOOD BABY (P358) | O Doleuze | B/TT | Dropped back behind the field early, looping around to sit behind midfield, on the rail. Ran strongly over the last 300m, and gathering momentum late. Chasing down winner last 150m and only just ran out of room. |
| 3 | 6 | PACKING DRAGON (T230) | Z Purton | B | Began well and cruised up early to be handily placed 4th, 1 off the fence. Loomed up at 350m, but didn't have a huge kick. Slightly 1 paced late, and wasn't able to match the pace of the winner, and lost 2nd in the last 50m. |
| 4 | 11 | CLUB LIFE (P309) | M L Yeung | B/XB | Kicked well early and pushed up to be well placed, 2nd/3rd on the rail. Nosed in front at 400m, before losing it at 200m. Battled OK to the line, and just lost 3rd placed dual late. |
| 5 | 12 | WINNAM (P119) | K C Leung | B/TT | Cruised forward early to sit midfield, on the rail. Briefly held up at the top of the straight. Ran home well late, and was still gaining on those on front towards the line. |

| 8 | 4 | AMAZING AGILITY (V192) | H W Lai | SR/TT | Dropped back early, settling towards the rear of the field, 1 off the fence with cover. Wide on the turn. Stayed on OK in the straight, without threatening a place. |
