| 1 | 7 | BUNDLE AWARD (K020) | A Atzeni | E | Taken back to last from a wide barrier, over 10Ls off the pace early and middle stages, still last at 400M then came with a strong finish down the outside, got up inside final 50M. |
| 2 | 4 | HAPPY TOGETHER (G446) | A Badel | TT | Settled towards the rear, 7Ls to make up 400M, closed off well and briefly led inside 100M, headed by winner late. |
| 3 | 1 | BEAUTY JOY (E058) | K C Leung | TT | Held up near last over 10Ls off the lead, plenty to do top of straight, closed off strongly under top weight to claim 3rd near line. |
| 4 | 5 | PATCH OF THETA (H485) | H Bowman | XB | Jumped only fairly, restrained to race behind midfield, responded well on straightening to be challenging for the lead 200M, not going the pace of first two final stages. |
| 5 | 8 | YOUNG CHAMPION (J195) | K Teetan | B | Away only fairly, settled in mid-division, gave good initial response early straight, challenged for the lead 200M and went 2nd briefly, edged out to 5th late but not beaten far. |
| 6 | 2 | CHANCHENG GLORY (H212) | L Ferraris | B/XB | Positioned ahead of midfield, ran on strongly early straight to take lead inside 200M, but run ended nearing 100M and had no extra close home. |
| 7 | 11 | KEEFY (G306) | M F Poon | -- | Chased leaders in 3rd spot, 4Ls off runaway leader 400M, ran on steadily from 300M but was outstayed by pursuing rivals late stages. |
| 8 | 6 | MASSIVE SOVEREIGN (J208) | Z Purton | -- | From wide draw taken back and reserved near last, over 10Ls off leader middle stages, driven 450M and ran to the line well without troubling first few. Pleasing return after long absence. |
| 9 | 9 | SOLEIL FIGHTER (J127) | B Thompson | B-/XB/CP2 | Commenced well and held the lead early stages, soon raced keenly setting pace that was inside of standard time, had a good lead over rivals home turn, driven 500M but didn't last home. Weakened 200M. |
