| 1 | 11 | TCHAIKOVSKY (CE030) | B Prebble | BO | Led by 1L on fence at 900 M, a neck clear off final bend before kicking 1L clear again at 200 M, stayed on well for hands and heels riding. |
| 2 | 12 | DILIGENT (CC285) | H W Lai | -- | Bumped at start, 5Ls off pace in 10th at 800 M, 4-wide entering straight when 3Ls down in midfield, picked up to be 2Ls down in 3rd at 200 M, kept on well but never likely to grab winner. |
| 3 | 1 | BUMPER BUMPER (CD025) | S Dye | -- | Awkwardly away and bumped at start, 2-wide and 1L off pace in 2nd at 1000 M, a neck down in 2nd entering straight, 1L down in 2nd at 200 M, no extra close home. |
| 4 | 6 | HONOUR SUPREME (CB393) | K H Chan | -- | 8Ls off pace in rear at 800 M, niggled along to lie up on the circle and under strong pressure turning for home when 6Ls down, ran on fairly well to be nearest at the finish. |
| 5 | 9 | JOLLY GOOD FORTUNE (CD274) | M W Leung | -- | Head up and keen at 900 M when 2Ls off pace on fence, same turning for home, steadily outpaced thereafter. |
| 6 | 7 | NOBLE CRUSADER (CD286) | M Rodd | -- | On fence 2Ls off pace early but went 2-wide at 800 M when 3Ls back in 4th, all out to be 2Ls down in 4th at 200 M, no extra close home. (Blood in trachea.) |
| 7 | 2 | DEVIL MOON (CD158) | G Schofield | -- | Niggled along when 7Ls off pace towards rear at 800 M, not much closer on straightening, stayed on past a few tired rivals on fence late. |
