| 1 | 11 | CHATEAUNEUF (J219) | K Teetan | B/TT | Smoothly away from draw 1, had a perfect run tracking leader on inside, quickened up nicely to take lead nearing 200M, continued on strongly final stages for a comfortable win. |
| 2 | 10 | SCOTCH TYCOON (G088) | L Hewitson | B/TT | On jumping was bumped heavily by rival, soon improved to the lead taking them along at a steady pace, caught by winner nearing 200M, held on for 2nd despite weakening late. |
| 3 | 2 | WINGS OF WAR (H162) | H Bentley | B | Given a patient ride, restrained behind midfield along the 3-path, wide on straightening, worked home well to take 3rd close home. |
| 4 | 9 | RIGHTEOUS ARION (H059) | B Avdulla | TT | Dropped back on jumping from wide draw, settled near last 5-6Ls off leader, swung widest into straight before staying on well to take 4th in a photo finish. |
| 5 | 6 | GOLDEN EMPIRE (E490) | C Y Ho | B | Away well, maintained a position behind midfield, kept on steadily final 300M but couldn't quicken enough to challenge leaders. Lost 4th in a photo finish. |
| 6 | 5 | SUPER JOY N FUN (J164) | C L Chau | XB/TT | From draw 12 obtained a 3-wide spot in midfield, raced keenly middle stages, lay in in the home straight and finished off only fairly. |
| 7 | 8 | PARTERRE (E234) | A Atzeni | B | Began well but soon restrained to a position ahead of midfield, fought on one paced in the straight and posed little threat to leaders. |
| 8 | 1 | REWARD SMILE (H256) | H Bowman | TT | Not hurried after the jump, restrained in a rearward position along the inside, ran to the line only fairly under top weight. (Jockey - did not travel as strongly as it did last start.) |
| 9 | 7 | SOVEREIGN FUND (J402) | K De Melo | V | Jumped awkwardly and lost ground, recovered to race in midfield along the fence, lacked a finishing response turning home, never a danger. |
| 10 | 3 | EQUATORIAL (J128) | A Badel | H/SR/TT | Jumped very awkwardly and lost ground, raced as the back marker throughout, couldn't go on final 300M. Never in the picture. |
| 11 | 12 | SERGEANT PEPPER (E432) | Y L Chung | -- | Jumped on terms, moved up to track leader, under pressure home turn, couldn't sustain run passing 250M, faded towards the line. |
| 12 | 4 | HAPPY FAT CAT (G166) | E C W Wong | CP/TT | From draw 9 unable to slot in, chased leaders in a 3-wide spot without cover, gave ground from 250M, weakened to last. |
