Horse Name | Jockey | Gear | Comment |
| 1 | 3 | KING ACRYLIC (CG295) | Z Purton | B/TT | Quickly into stride but not sufficient speed to lead. Under pressure until settling 2-wide behind leader near the bend. Rallied on to chase the leader and hit front 200M. Hung on to repel late challenge. |
| 2 | 13 | CHEEKY LAD (CG198) | B Prebble | B | Away in line. Dropped towards rear in a 2-wide position from 1000M. 6Ls down on straightening. Finished off well but was held by the winner closing stages. |
| 3 | 14 | GREAT UNITY (CJ209) | J Victoire | CP- | Raced within 4Ls of the pace on fence through to the home straight. Kept making up ground but not able to match on terms with the front pair. Clung on for 3rd. |
| 4 | 1 | HIGH INTELLIGENT (CD317) | K C Leung | B/TT | Pressed early but failed to work across. Trapped 4-wide and was 3Ls behind the speed making the home turn. Kept giving but no hope with the front pair. Just denied a place at the post. (Tactic questioned.) |
| 5 | 8 | NOBLE DE BEST (CJ160) | W Pike | B/TT | Jumped fairly well from high draw but no early speed. Gradually dropped towards rear in a 3-wide position before making home turn. Made steady headway in the straight but was beaten far by the principals. (Questioned.) |
| 6 | 11 | PUBLIC FIGURE (CK322) | G Cheyne | B | Shifted in at start and was soon shaken up to race 3-wide ahead of midfield from 1000M. Dropped to midfield passing 700M and was 4Ls away entering home straight. Picked up fairly and was steadied at 150M. |
| 7 | 4 | THE RIFLE (CK208) | D Whyte | B1/TT | Fair start and was urged to go forward. Took lead on fence from 1100M and held a 1L advantage turning in. Fought on with the winner until headed 200M. Not much to offer thereafter. |
| 8 | 2 | RED RULER (CH198) | G Mosse | V/TT | Moderate start and was eased to rear from high draw. Travelled very wide throughout. Covered some ground in the straight. |
| 9 | 12 | CARE FREE MIDAS (CH053) | M Chadwick | V | Never far off the pace in a 2-wide position but failed to turn up a notch in the home straight. |
| 10 | 9 | BRAVO WINNER (CK035) | H W Lai | XB | Bumped at start and was taken towards rear on fence from 1200M. Took inside run and was 6Ls off rounding the turn. Slightly held up near 400M. Ran on fairly well before steadied at 100M. |
| 11 | 5 | SPEEDY (CJ037) | Y T Cheng | -- | 2-wide behind midfield through to the home straight. Momentarily held up top of home straight but responded only fairly once into clear. |
| 12 | 10 | POWER AND GOLD (CK041) | W C Marwing | TT1 | Hard ridden from high draw and travelled 3-wide in the leading section from 1000M. Couldn't quite follow and was beaten early in the straight. |
| 13 | 7 | BEST MATE (CK059) | K L Chui | B | Prominent early. Ridden vigorously from 600M but found nothing. Struggled home. |
