Horse Name | Jockey | Gear | Comment |
| 1 | 9 | DYNAMIC FUN (CB281) | S Dye | B | Awkwardly away, soon led, 2Ls clear down the back straight, 2.5Ls clear off home turn and 4Ls to the good 200 M out, tired a little close home but had done enough to hang okay. |
| 2 | 1 | CELEBRATION (CB029) | C Soumillon | SR | Settled about 5Ls or 6Ls off the pace and 2-wide until 600 M out, similarly placed but 3-wide into home straight, stayed on well but didn't have much chance of catching winner. |
| 3 | 8 | SNOWSTORM (CB255) | A Suborics | B | Raced 2-wide about 6Ls or 7Ls off the pace from the 1200 M to home straight, ran on fairly well through final stages to be nearest at the finish. |
| 4 | 6 | DIAMOND MOON (CB019) | G Mosse | V/TT | Slowly away, on fence 10Ls off the pace 1200 M out, hampered entering straight when 8Ls down on fence, ran on strongly final stages to be nearest at the finish. |
| 5 | 12 | SPRINTER (CA067) | Y T Cheng | -- | Raced 2-wide about 10Ls off the pace from 1200 M out to home turn, was checked over 200 M and forced to switch out wider about 100 M out when finishing off purposefully albeit too late. |
| 6 | 11 | ISLAND WEST TREBLE (BV073) | E Legrix | TT | In midfield when unbalanced 1300 M out, raced 6Ls or 7Ls off the pace from 1200 M to home straight, had a chance of a place when 5Ls down in about 5th position 200 M out, no extra. |
| 7 | 10 | ELEPHANT DANCE (CA391) | D Whyte | -- | Raced 2-wide about 3Ls or 4Ls off the pace from 1200 M to 600 M out when steadied briefly, was quite laboured and one-paced from that point on. |
| 8 | 7 | NASA PEARL (CC068) | F Coetzee | -- | On fence 4Ls off the speed 1200 M out, niggled along to keep this position from 700 M out until home straight, faded out steadily. |
| 9 | 2 | TRIUMPHANT FEELING (BS252) | M W Leung | B | Was 8Ls or 9Ls off the pace from 1200 M out, under pressure 600 M out, was never remotely competitive. |
| 10 | 3 | CHEERS WINNER (CB356) | W C Marwing | B | Had the run of the race from 1200 M out on fence 2Ls off the pace, 2.5Ls down in 2nd place and hard pressed to chase DYNAMIC FUN entering straight, soon swamped by pursuers. |
| 11 | 5 | KEEN WINNER (BT140) | J Spencer | TT | Always about 7Ls or 8Ls off the pace on the fence from 1400 M to home straight when checked, didn't recover and no sign of quickening up either. |
| 12 | 4 | ZIETENGO BOY (BV143) | D Dunn | B | Settled 1Ls off DYNAMIC FUN out 2-wide 1400 M out in 2nd place, 2Ls down 800 M out and already under pressure, faded rapidly and beaten a long way out. |
