Horse Name | Jockey | Gear | Comment |
| 1 | 7 | CHILLI BABA (G339) | L Ferraris | B | Jumped only fairly then taken back to race at the rear, 7Ls off leader middle stages, swung widest into straight before producing a strong finish to get up close home. |
| 2 | 5 | ON THE LASH (J182) | A Atzeni | V-/XB/PC1/TT | Caught wide no cover down the back straight then pressed forward to join leader 800M, fought hard to take lead near 250M, dug deep final stages but was worn down by the fast finishing winner late. |
| 3 | 13 | RED MAVERICK (J067) | Y L Chung | -- | In touch behind leaders, held up for clear running from 450m to 250M then worked home well to get into the placings. |
| 4 | 6 | SUPER HONG KONG (D241) | K Teetan | B/TT | Dropped back to race towards the rear, went wide from 700M, had task in hand top of straight, stayed on moderately to claim 4th. |
| 5 | 2 | SMASHING EXPRESS (J252) | A Hamelin | E | Given a waiting ride 5Ls back on settling, saved ground on the inside before running on mildly for 5th, not beaten far. |
| 6 | 3 | GLUCK RACER (E157) | H Bentley | B/H2 | Jumped only fairly, settled in 2nd half of the field, badly held up between 450M-300M and dropped to last place, hit the line well once in the clear. Could do better. |
| 7 | 1 | GO GO GO (H196) | Z Purton | PC/TT | From draw 13 caught wide no cover early stages, moved up to the lead nearing 1000M, challenged by rival top of straight, lost lead nearing 200M then weakened towards the line. |
| 8 | 10 | CHATEAU LE PECHE (H471) | M F Poon | B | Settled ahead of midfield but raced very wide without cover throughout, 7th at 400M, kept on fairly to the line. Never a winning hope. |
| 9 | 12 | TURTLE AGAIN (H083) | H Bowman | B/TT | Held up in mid-division along the fence, little change at the turn, had difficulty obtaining clear running 300M before finishing off fairly, gave ground late stages. |
| 10 | 14 | JOYFUL CHAMPION (G072) | M Chadwick | B/TT | Maintained a midfield position 4Ls behind leader, had difficulty obtaining clear running early straight but the finishing response over final 300M was only fair. Never able to trouble leaders. |
| 11 | 11 | GOLDEN FAIRY (E448) | A Badel | -- | Set early pace before settling in a trailing spot behind leading pair, couldn't keep up with the main contenders passing 300M, weakened away. (Jockey : no explanation for the disappointing performance.) |
| 12 | 9 | NICE BIRDIE (G470) | B Avdulla | TT | Held up midfield in a slowly run race, came under pressure 500M, soon weakened and dropped out of contention. |
| 13 | 4 | MARIO (J100) | M L Yeung | B | Up with pace first 800M, shuffled back to midfield entering home turn, came up empty passing 400M, finished tailed out. (Mucus / Unacceptable Performance.) |
