| 1 | 7 | HAPPY DRAGON (B099) | S De Sousa | H | Settled better than midfield in 6th on the rail, came off the rail leaving the Rock and swung the widest into home straight, quickened well to take charge 100 metres out, won convincingly. |
| 2 | 5 | BANK ON RED (A228) | J Moreira | XB | Settled just worse than midfield, ran on well between runners upon straightening, did best work late. |
| 3 | 12 | LOOKING GOOD (B256) | M L Yeung | B | Ridden positively to take up running on the rail after the first 400 metres, ceded lead for box seat turning into back straight, not far off onto final bend, fought on steadily without threatening. |
| 4 | 2 | TOP LAURELS (A173) | K Teetan | -- | Ridden positively from the widest gate, settled for midfield 2-wide before the first bend, rushed up at the Rock to lead by 2L 500M out and maintained the high speed on home bend, unable to sustain effort and swamped 100M out. |
| 5 | 4 | SUMSTREETSUMWHERE (B283) | M F Poon | H | With leaders early stages, settled for 5th within 3L of pace coming on to first bend, commenced move entering home straight, fought on under pressure without threatening. |

| 9 | 9 | FAITHFUL TRINITY (A247) | M Chadwick | H/P/TT | Broke well from the one draw, with leaders before taken back to 4th on the rail, shuffled further back to 6th some 4L back leaving the Rock, made no further impression. |
| 10 | 1 | IRISH VEGA (B302) | U Rispoli | B/TT | Slowly away, never a danger. |
| 11 | 11 | ACCLAIMED LIGHT (T369) | H N Wong | B | Crowded and then stumbled shortly after the start, detached from the main body of field most of the way, never a factor. |
| 12 | 6 | BEAUTY LOYAL (B383) | K C Leung | H/TT | With the leaders 4-wide onto first bend, settled one-out-one-back in 3rd turning into back straight, folded up quickly inside the final 400 metres. (Jockey reported pace and trip not suit) |
