| 1 | 10 | SPLENDID LIVING (E192) | H Bentley | TT | Pushed forward to lead. Kicked strongly on straightening, held comfortable margin over rivals all the way to line & despite racing waywardly under pressure late went on to win by easy 3L. |
| 2 | 3 | FEARLESS FIRE (B085) | L Currie | B/XB | Raced wide early but improved position to race second, two wide form the 1200m. Couldn't go with the leader/winner who kicked clear in the straight but bud deep to hold well beaten second on line. |
| 3 | 2 | READY PLAYER ONE (G143) | C Y Ho | CP-/XB1/B2/TT | Had a nice run on the leaders back for the majority. Couldn't go with the leader who bounded clear in straight, tried hard & held third on line, albeit well behind easy winner. |
| 4 | 12 | THETA HEDGE (E307) | M F Poon | B-/H/TT | Slow to begin but made up ground, was checked passing winning post before getting position in midfield off the rail. Eased wider entering last section, finished off ok down the outside, only 0.75L behind second on line. |
| 5 | 1 | SAMARKAND (H070) | Y L Chung | H/XB/TT | Pushed forward, shifted inwards near winning post when second before being crossed & racing 1,1 from the 1200m. Was three wide from 600m, battled on ok but was caught for a minor placing late, not beaten far behind 2nd. |
| 6 | 6 | KUNG FU TEA (C136) | L Ferraris | B | Steadied at start & taken back to race second last along rail. Was 6.5L form the lead entering last section, stayed close to the rail on straightening, made some late ground & was only 1L behind second on line. |
| 7 | 11 | AI ONE (E139) | M L Yeung | H/TT | Raced in midfield along the rail throughout. Battled on only moderately in straight & was only fair. |
| 8 | 8 | SURREALISM (C285) | M Chadwick | B | Taken behind runners after start & raced worse than midfield along the rail. Was 5L from the lead entering last section, shifted away from rail on straightening, was held approaching 50m when finishing off fairly late. |
| 9 | 5 | NUNCHUKS (C357) | K Teetan | TT | Raced in midfield away from the rail throughout. Entered last section just under 5L from the lead but made no headway in the straight & was beaten the same margin when finishing 9th. |
| 10 | 4 | DEAR SIBLING (G336) | K C Leung | B | Steadied from outside gate & taken back to race at the tail. Continued a clear last down back straight, shifted three wide passing 450m, shifted to be the widest on straightening, only past a couple of tiring ones late. |
| 11 | 9 | HERCULES (C476) | C Wong | B-/TT | Steadied on jumping & raced just worse than midfield away from the rail. Moved into three wide line near the 900m & was wide thereafter. Entered last section 5.5L from lead but weakened out further & likely struggled at trip. |
| 12 | 7 | SUNNY DELIGHT (E339) | H Bowman | TT | Settled in the second last pair in early stages when racing away from the rail. Came under pressure entering the last section when 6.5L from the lead but was eased out of the race in the straight (bled). |
