Horse Name | Jockey | Gear | Comment |
| 1 | 11 | SUNNY POWER (CG203) | Y T Cheng | -- | Standard jump, mustered speed to make up lost ground and race outside leader, raced 1/2L back travelling sweetly on bend, threw down challenge at 200 M and edged clear late for a solid win. |
| 2 | 2 | EGYPTIAN RA (CE002) | E Saint-Martin | -- | Began nicely, rolled forward and took up running, kept tempo solid throughout, 1/2L clear on bend, kicked at 400 M and pinched a break but couldn't hold off lightweighted rival late. Strong effort given weight. |
| 3 | 5 | GREEN BIRDIE (CH245) | S Dye | -- | Average jump as usual, raced at tail 10Ls off pace, helped by speed and made 3 wide run on circle, 4 wide into straight and still 8Ls back, made huge amount of ground to take 3rd. Big effort. |
| 4 | 1 | DOWN TOWN (CG054) | C W Wong | TT | Away with them, showed speed but elected to take trail, had ideal trip behind leader, 2Ls down on turning, into clear at 250 M, closed off nicely to make frame. |
| 5 | 4 | PLANET RULER (CB359) | G Mosse | B | Began well, restrained when unable to cross, posted 3 wide 4 to 5Ls back in midfield without cover, did share of work to bend, closed steadily in straight without really threatening. |
| 6 | 10 | FIRM OFFER (CE008) | K L Chui | SR | Poor to break and assumed usual role near tail, raced 8Ls back on rails, helped by solid tempo, eased 2 wide at 600 M, checked turning and swung wide at 400 M, made up plenty of ground in stretch from impossible spot. |
| 7 | 7 | SAN LORENZO (CC092) | K T Yeung | XB1/TT2 | Even jump, took a trailing position 4Ls back on rails in midfield, had a quiet time on circle, niggled on turning, stuck on evenly last 300 M holding ground in run to line. |
| 8 | 9 | LIBERAL'S KNIGHT (CE272) | F Coetzee | -- | Out with rest, allowed to slide back from a wide alley, ended up 6 to 7Ls back on rails, helped by speed, kept to rails in straight and made steady progress before struggling last 200 M. |
| 9 | 8 | YELLOW DIAMOND (CD246) | C K Tong | B | Fast into stride, couldn't cross and drifted back to midfield 5 to 6Ls back in running line, struggling on bend, slight check turning, couldn't go with them and battled in straight. |
| 10 | 6 | HELENE BRILLIANT (CH174) | B Prebble | TT | Began well, took up a prime position 1 out 1 back, had a fair run 3Ls back, struggling to pick up at 600 M, lacked usual finishing burst and faded out in straight. (Sore morning after.) |
| 11 | 3 | ABLE PRINCE (CC348) | M Nunes | B/TT | Lost considerable ground at start, always detached and well off 2nd last horse. Never a factor and pulled up quickly. |
