Horse Name | Jockey | Gear | Comment |
| 1 | 4 | FIRST IN COMMAND (L085) | T Clark | H-/TT | Vigorously driven out the gate, took a while to get there but travelled nicely once crossed to the fence, kept on strongly up the home straight and was never in any danger of being caught. |
| 2 | 2 | PALEPALE (M407) | Z Purton | B | Chased leader, had his chance inside 350M, tried hard but couldn't get near to the winner, kept on well enough over final 200M and pulled clear of the remainder. |
| 3 | 10 | SUPREME GENKI (M387) | M Chadwick | TT | Never far off, travelled satisfactorily, kept on same pace final 300M and held on for a non-threatening 3rd. |
| 4 | 1 | CITY POWER (M066) | D Whyte | B/SR | Slightly slow away, held up 2nd last about 6Ls back, made some progress off the pace but never a threat to first two. |
| 5 | 5 | LUCKY SCEPTER (N174) | M Zahra | SR-/H1/CP1/TT1 | Always prominent, 3-wide turning for home, driven out near 450M, kept on same pace, faded final stages. |
| 6 | 9 | LOADS OF JOY (L088) | C K Tong | TT | Held up in midfield, stayed on only fairly over final 400M, never a serious threat. |
| 7 | 6 | GABRIAL THE KING (N319) | W Pike | H- | Checked on jumping, dropped back to a position near rear, not able to quicken inside 400M, no impression, |
| 8 | 3 | BEAUTY SPARKLE (N310) | B Prebble | -- | Not far off leaders, wasn't travelling well mid-race, found nothing when pressed inside 300M, eased final 100M. (Unacceptable performance.) |
| 9 | 8 | KA WAI FORTUNE (N255) | T H So | TT1 | Pushed along to stay in touch with the field, under serious pressure over the turn, soon dropped away. |
| 10 | 12 | SHARP PRINT (N261) | C W Wong | TT1 | Slowly away, lacked speed, soon detached from the field, never in contention. |
