Horse Name | Jockey | Gear | Comment |
| 1 | 5 | I'M NO SQUARE (CG078) | S Dye | TT | Settled in rear group about 6Ls or 7Ls off speed, 3-wide turning for home and 5Ls down, switched out to centre of track and quickened well to lead 50 M out, ran on. |
| 2 | 14 | KING OF SPADES (CC056) | M Odendaal | B | Slowly away, niggled along early in rear, short of room when 5Ls off pace in 12th taking final bend, dashed through the field to take 2nd inside final strides. |
| 3 | 1 | LUCKY DRAGON (CD322) | G Mosse | TT | 3-back on fence when checked 1100 M, head up in place, 4Ls off pace in midfield at 800 M, held up from 400 M to 300 M, every chance of quinella, lacked the zip. |
| 4 | 7 | SPACED (CG034) | C W Wong | B-/TT | Run of the race on fence 2Ls off pace in 2nd at 1000 M, same into home straight, stayed on dourly and didn't drop away as usual, improved. |
| 5 | 3 | CONGRATULATION (CH032) | D Whyte | -- | Well placed 2Ls and 3Ls off pace in 5th or until home turn, led by a neck at 200 M but hung in under pressure and lost on a place late. |
| 6 | 10 | HAPPY MASTER (CE050) | R Fradd | SR | 4-back on fence about 5Ls off speed in 8th or so until 600 M, closer turning for home, badly held up until 100 M out, ran on again, very unlucky not to at least place. |
| 7 | 11 | AMAZING WIN (CG208) | M Nunes | TT | Awkwardly away, midfield about 3Ls off speed until 700 M when hanging out, 1L down at 300 M with place prospects, outpaced final 200 M. |
| 8 | 6 | SPRING SMILES (CG269) | D Nikolic | -- | Fractious in gates, in rear about 7Ls off pace and tracking winner through first half, 6Ls last turning for home, made some fair late ground past tired rivals. |
| 9 | 8 | WAFER KING (CD276) | M W Leung | TT | 2-wide and 2Ls down in 3rd at 1000 M, a neck back in 2nd from home turn to 200 M, very tired late. |
| 10 | 13 | THUNDER STORM (CA226) | H W Lai | B/H | Midfield with cover about 4Ls off pace through first half, same margin behind when 4-wide (widest of all) turning for home, always held. |
| 11 | 4 | CLASSIC HORSE (CD378) | B Prebble | CP | Broke badly and lost about 6Ls on field, recovered to be 5Ls back in 10th at 800 M, 4Ls back entering straight and steadied in midfield at 200 M, one-paced. |
| 12 | 9 | HANDBAG PREMIER (CD137) | F Coetzee | B/TT | Head up at 1000 M in midfield about 4Ls off speed, still fairly well placed at home turn but very one-paced in the finish. (Abnormal breathing noise.) |
| 13 | 2 | UNIVERSAL PIONEER (CB293) | C K Tong | TT | Led by 1L on fence at 1000 M, a neck clear turning for home, faded out once headed 300 M out. |
| 14 | 12 | NOBLE RAIDER (CG162) | E Saint-Martin | -- | Always 3-wide no cover, 3Ls off pace in 6th at 1000 M, a little closer turning for home but soon emptied out under pressure. |
