Horse Name | Jockey | Gear | Comment |
| 1 | 6 | SUPER GOAL STRIKER (BV173) | F Coetzee | -- | Better than midfield. Quickened well after the 200 M to win on the line after ding-dong battle with 2nd horse. |
| 2 | 8 | SPLENDID PATROL (BV066) | S K Sit | V | Soon led, hung out early stages. Every chance final 200 M but caught on the line by the winner. |
| 3 | 12 | DOLBRIDGE (BS295) | S King | -- | Towards rear. Crowded early and again at 600 M. Made up good ground on inside final 200 M to just miss close home. |
| 4 | 13 | STRIKERS (BP090) | K C Tsang | B | At back. Made up good ground from 250 M. |
| 5 | 7 | RED IN GREEN (BT169) | D Whyte | BO | Midfield. Inconvenienced stable bend and forced wide, then dropped to the rear. Progress from 600 M and wide into straight. Made up ground steadily. |
| 6 | 3 | MANY HAPPY RETURNS (BP126) | J Egan | -- | Midfield mainly. One-paced. |
| 7 | 11 | VICTORY MARBLE (BV275) | M Kinane | -- | Well there to 200 M, soon weakened. |
| 8 | 2 | NEVER SAY NEVER (BT028) | R Fradd | -- | Jumped awkwardly, towards rear. Became unbalanced stable bend. Awkward between horses at 500 M, never in contention. |
| 9 | 9 | KING OF JEWELRY (BP013) | C H Tse | -- | Slowly away, worse than midfield. Improved around home bend, kept on until no extra after the 200 M. |
| 10 | 14 | ARRIBA-ARRIBA (BT079) | Y T Cheng | B | Behind midfield. Crowded early twice. Disappointed for running after the 200 M. |
| 11 | 10 | NEW ASIANS (BT019) | K S Yu | -- | Midfield, wide in early and middle stages. Dropped towards the rear after being crowded winning post first time. Not in contention afterwards. |
| 12 | 1 | LOYAL DEVOTION (BV075) | A Starke | H | Crowded early in midfield. Progress from 500 M and a bit wide into straight. Did not quicken. |
| 13 | 5 | FORTUNE DANCER (BS081) | A Marcus | B | Always prominent. Tired badly final 200 M. |
