Horse Name | Jockey | Gear | Comment |
| 1 | 12 | AMIGO (CK358) | J Lloyd | -- | Out in line, ended up 3 wide just worse than midfield, had OK run 5Ls back, improved circle and came 4 wide turning, asserted final 200 M and kept on to score. |
| 2 | 1 | ROMPING (CK038) | J Victoire | B | Slow into stride, mustered into prominent spot 1 out 1 back, had run of race to bend, cut back inside on turning, chased well to line. |
| 3 | 9 | BEAUTY LEGEND (CL143) | B Prebble | -- | Drifted back soon after start, raced 3 wide in rear division 6 to 7Ls back with cover, tracked eventual winner on bend, worked home soundly. |
| 4 | 5 | FIRM OFFER (CE008) | G Mosse | SR/TT | Faded back as usual, settled last on fence, 8Ls or so from lead, had job to do on bend, switched out and made considerable ground late. |
| 5 | 3 | IRISH JIG (CJ125) | D Beadman | TT | Slotted into midfield, had easy time throughout, tracked well approaching bend, didn't have a clear run on turning in, finished nicely final 200 M when clear. |
| 6 | 14 | LEGEND (CK042) | M L Yeung | -- | Positive to begin, trapped 3 wide without cover 3Ls back, worked in mid-section, crept close to challenge on bend, ran out of petrol final 100 M after hard run. |
| 7 | 6 | PRESTO (CJ048) | D Whyte | -- | Standard jump, 4 to 5Ls away on rails in middle stages, used nothing to bend, not much room early straight and steadied 200 M, closed well clear. |
| 8 | 10 | FOREVER ELATION (CK215) | H W Lai | B | On speed from outset, sat behind lead group 2 to 3Ls back on rails, no excuses to bend, came to inside but peaked final 200 M, just held ground in run to line. |
| 9 | 8 | QUICK TOUCH (CJ196) | Y T Cheng | XB/CP1/TT | Began poorly, raced keenly 7Ls or so back on fence, still in rear division and in traffic on turn, took inside runs but finish was poor final 300 M. |
| 10 | 7 | POLYGOLD (CK309) | K W Leung | -- | Tardy into stride, positioned behind midfield 5 to 6Ls back, quiet time to bend, very one paced in straight. |
| 11 | 2 | SUPER PISTACHIO (CL099) | M Chadwick | TT1 | Began with purpose from a wide alley, worked hard early 3 wide, eventually crossed to be 2 wide outside leader, struggling turning, faded when workload took toll. |
| 12 | 4 | SKYVIEW BAR (CG024) | A Gryder | B-/TT | Led soon after start, handed up when challengers continued, overraced behind them thereafter, still behind leader to bend, didn't let down in straight. |
| 13 | 11 | REGENCY WINNER (CK410) | W C Marwing | -- | Drifted back to rear division, raced 8Ls back at tail, urged along 3 wide on bend, found little in straight. |
| 14 | 13 | MASTER KEY (CK387) | Z Purton | -- | Speed early, raced freely and pressed early leader, continued to race keenly when took up front, folded at 200 M after early work. |
