| 1 | 1 | GARLIC BOY (N287) | T Angland | -- | Made its run third from the rear, 2-3 deep with cover. Swung the home turn widest and let down strongly in the straight to win with plenty in hand. |
| 2 | 9 | FLORAL MAN (N092) | R Fourie | B/TT | Enjoyed a nice run in transit, box seating. Hit the front near the 250m but was collard passing the furlong. |
| 3 | 5 | RIYADH (N275) | O Doleuze | SR | Steadied from a wide gate and was allowed to travel in last position, 2 deep with cover, although was inclined to pull hard in the early stages. Rounded the home turn wide and ran on well. |
| 4 | 6 | AMBASSADORSHIP (N217) | W C Marwing | H | Taken back from the outside alley & raced at the rear of the field along the pain however travelled keenly in the early stages. Chased gamely in the straight after obtaining comfortable racing room passing the 250m. |
| 5 | 12 | ALP'S GLORY (L433) | M Chadwick | B/TT | Settled worse than midfield 3 deep with cover. Carried 4 wide no cover after the 600m, maintained a fair gallop all the way to the line. |
| 6 | 3 | YOUNG TALENT (N202) | C Y Ho | -- | Raced midfield 1 off with cover, was carted 3 deep no cover after the 300m. Kept whacking away at the same speed in the final stretch. |
| 7 | 8 | MIZZEN GREY (N192) | A Suborics | B- | Parked 3 back the fence. Kept to the inside turning for home and only labored down the running. |
| 8 | 4 | FUN FASTER (N191) | H W Lai | -- | Sent forward and led along the paint. Faded approaching the 200m. |
| 9 | 11 | OCEAN BRIGHT (M270) | T Clark | B/TT | Settled just behind midfield the fence. Only plodded to the finishing line. |
| 10 | 2 | ULTIMATE POWER (N314) | W M Lai | -- | Settled in 2nd position outside the leader, no cover. Came under pressure early in the straight and was a spent force at the furlong. |
| 11 | 7 | BELIEVE IN CHANCE (N133) | K C Leung | TT1 | Had every possible hope after travelling 1 out 1 back. Was a beaten horse early in the run home. |
| 12 | 10 | GIANTS SERAPIS (M285) | Y T Cheng | SR | Posted 3 wide without cover for most of the trip settling slightly ahead of midfield. Never likely. (Bled.) |
