3 | 9 | FLORAL DANCER (CA259) | H K Yim | -- | Sent on from gates to be outside pacesetting MILLENNIUM LEGEND and 2-wide through to straight, grabbed by winner about 100 M out and caught for 2nd final strides. |
4 | 11 | MILLENNIUM LEGEND (BV246) | K H Ting | B | Soon led on fence, always about a neck clear from FLORAL DANCER through to 200 M out, weakened thereafter and lost 3rd place close home. |
5 | 10 | CYBER GULCH (BV300) | D Dunn | B | About 10Ls off pace on fence 1200 M out, about 8Ls down entering straight, 6Ls down 200 M out, moderate late headway close home. |
6 | 3 | BRAVO VICTORY (BT095) | K K Lai | B | Driven along early to hold prime spot on fence 2Ls off pace 1200 M out, always niggled along thereafter, 4Ls down entering straight, very one-paced to line. |

10 | 4 | ROMANTIC VENTURE (BS233) | M W Leung | B | No speed early on racing 2-wide and about 10Ls off pace 1200 M out, off the bridle 600 M out, never a factor. |
