Horse Name | Jockey | Gear | Comment |
| 1 | 1 | HELENE SPIRIT (M310) | A Suborics | TT | Sped forward, allowed an uncontested lead at even pace, opened up 2Ls advantage turning in, was tackled and headed by rival at 200M, showed battling qualities and fought back to re-gain the lead inside 100M. |
| 2 | 3 | AEROVELOCITY (P069) | Z Purton | B/TT | Broke well, tracked leaders in 3rd, made rapid headway entering straight to join eventual winner 200M out, briefly in front but run peaked 150M, gave away the lead inside 100M. |
| 3 | 9 | DUNDONNELL (S110) | D Whyte | -- | Settled well in mid-division, stayed on well for 3rd but not pace to challenge first two. |
| 4 | 4 | REWARDING HERO (N376) | T Berry | H/XB | Restrained to a rearward position 6Ls off the pace, ran on moderately to go 4th 100M from home, no threat to first two. |
| 5 | 7 | TOUR DE FORCE (N297) | K C Leung | B | Dropped back from wide barrier, settled near last 7-8Ls off the pace, made steady progress turning in, raced tight 200M. |
| 6 | 5 | SECRET SHAM (P174) | H Bowman | H | Never far off from leaders, switched to 3-wide 600M, had every chance entering straight, kept up the pursuit to 150M then backed away. |
| 7 | 6 | GOLDEN HARVEST (N236) | K Teetan | TT | Held up behind midfield along the 2-path, failed to pick up sufficiently entering straight, no impression on leaders. |
| 8 | 8 | DESTINED FOR GLORY (M207) | C Reith | XB/TT | Held up towards the rear, driven along passing 500M but lacked the necessary response. |
| 9 | 10 | PENGLAI XIANZI (CK248) | K C Ng | TT | Rushed early to take up a 2-wide position just behind leader, went into final 400M with little left, weakened towards the finish. |
| 10 | 2 | FREDERICK ENGELS (N187) | B Prebble | TT | Waited with in the rear, swung wide near 400M for his run, made only limited progress and never reached a contending position. (Lame.) |
