Horse Name | Jockey | Gear | Comment |
| 1 | 4 | DROMBEG BANNER (H117) | A Atzeni | -- | Went forward and crossed to the lead 900M, kept on well turning home, was strongly challenged by rival from 200M and pulled out all the stops to hold on. |
| 2 | 5 | PATCH OF THETA (H485) | C Y Ho | XB | Settled down midfield, quickened up well to challenge for the lead mid-straight, fought hard to the line and was just denied in a driving finish. |
| 3 | 8 | SUNLIGHT POWER (H244) | C L Chau | CP/H | Jumped only fairly, moved up to race in mid-division, chased leaders from 250M, had no room late and was not ridden out final 50M. |
| 4 | 7 | DANCING CODE (G365) | M L Yeung | B-/TT | From wide draw shifted across behind runners, held up towards the rear, closed off final 300M steadily to finish a pleasing 4th after a break of over 6 months. |
| 5 | 9 | SUPERB BOY (G335) | L Hewitson | TT | Jumped on terms, tucked in to race behind leaders, steadied 500M, held up for clear running early straight but the finishing response was only modest. |
| 6 | 3 | OUTGATE (H113) | Y L Chung | H/TT | Settled towards the rear, little change in position to the straight, stayed on final 400M without threat to the leaders. |
| 7 | 1 | COPARTNER PRANCE (H408) | Z Purton | XB | Vied for lead early before taking a sit from 900M, found disappointingly little in the straight. (Jockey : raced too keenly early and middle stages when positioned outside the leader.) |
| 8 | 2 | HELENE FEELING (H215) | H Bowman | B/TT | Jumped only fairly, soon ended up at the rear 6-7Ls off the pace, still a fair way form leaders at 400M, couldn't quicken enough. Never in the picture. |
| 9 | 6 | KEEFY (G306) | K C Leung | -- | Caught wide no cover in mid-division early before moving closer to leaders from 900M, had no extra 300M, weakened to last. |
