| 1 | 6 | RUN RUN BUDDY (H006) | K C Leung | CP | Showed early speed, crossed to the lead from draw 14, gave good response when urged 300M, drew clear mid-straight, was strongly challenged late, just lasted. |
| 2 | 4 | UNIVERSAL HORIZON (G360) | C Y Ho | -- | Settled ahead of midfield, never far off 3Ls off the pace, headway on leader from 300M, produced a strong late challenge, just failed. |
| 3 | 7 | WIDE BLUE YONDER (G323) | H Bowman | CP-/B1/TT | Held up in midfield along the fence, kept to inside on straightening but not much room from 300M-200M, closed off well late stages to take 3rd. (Jockey questioned re his riding in the straight.) |
| 4 | 13 | NORDIC COMBINED (G015) | A Hamelin | B/TT2 | From wide draw shifted across behind runners, raced behind midfield 5-6Ls off leader middle stages, switched away from fence 450M and finished off the race reasonably well. |
| 5 | 10 | WIN WIN (B472) | C L Chau | B- | From draw 12 slotted into a 2-wide position towards the rear, took a while to get going on straightening, closed off nicely over final 250M. |
| 6 | 11 | BEAT HOLLOW (G414) | M L Yeung | -- | Urged along to be tracking leader on inside, battled on same pace on straightening, faded final 100M. |
| 7 | 2 | HORSESAIN BOLT (D061) | M F Poon | B/TT | Positioned ahead of midfield along the 2-path, had every chance on straightening, kept on same pace final 200M posing no threat to leaders. |
| 8 | 5 | PUBLICIST (H052) | Z Purton | H | Pushed along from draw 11, pressed leader on outside, failed to quicken on straightening, couldn't hold his position from 200M, faded towards the line. |
| 9 | 8 | SMILING COLLECTOR (G128) | L Ferraris | V/XB | Settled down midfield, 5Ls make up 400M but failed to make progress in the run home, never threatened. (Jockey : inclined to race keenly and found it difficult to make up ground in the straight.) |
| 10 | 14 | STAR OF YUEN LONG (C303) | M Chadwick | TT | Fractious in the stalls then began awkwardly, dropped back to race towards the rear, couldn't pick up speed turning home, never involved. |
| 11 | 12 | FIGHTING STAR (E255) | A Badel | B | Prominent behind leaders, couldn't go on passing 300M, weakened rapidly. |
| 12 | 1 | FAULDS (G153) | K Teetan | B-/XB/V1/TT | Jumped fairly, held up 3-wide in midfield, wide into straight, found nothing under top weight, never a factor. |
| 13 | 3 | ULTRA EXPRESS (D161) | V Borges | B/TT | Checked on jumping, ended up racing at the rear, plenty to do top of straight but came up empty. (Blood in trachea.) |
| 14 | 9 | CLASSIC POSH (C327) | Y L Chung | V- | In mid-division, unable to slot in, caught 3-wide no cover from 800M, dropped away passing 400M, finished tailed out. (Lame RF leg.) |
