2 | 12 | LA MERVEILLE (CC205) | C Williams | H | 3-wide without cover until getting 2-wide and 3Ls off pace in 4th at 1100 M, 3-wide and 4Ls off pace entering straight, little chance with winner but comfortably held 2nd. |
3 | 4 | FANTASTIC WIN (CB188) | H W Lai | B | Driven along early to hold worse than midfield position about 6Ls or 7Ls off pace, similarly placed on straightening, stayed on fairly well for a place. |
4 | 8 | ATHLETIC GOLD (CC241) | S K Sit | -- | 2-wide in midfield about 6Ls off pace through to home straight, 3-wide on straightening, stayed on at same pace, nearest at finish. |

9 | 3 | CHINA WORLD (CA397) | O Doleuze | -- | Soon led, never clear by more than 2Ls until home straight, headed 300 M out and faded markedly. |
10 | 2 | THUNDER MAN (CB239) | C K Tong | -- | Steadied at 1200 M when 10Ls off pace in rear, niggled along to get closer on circle, didn't succeed. |
11 | 7 | TO SIR WITH LOVE (CE054) | Y T Cheng | -- | Switched from widest gate to fence on exiting, always in rear and never closer than 10Ls off speed at any stage. |
12 | 10 | NICKU NICKU (CC372) | W M Lai | SR | Soon 2-wide and 1L off pace in 2nd at 1200 M, under pressure to maintain this position 500 M out, faded badly in the stretch. |
