| 1 | 6 | HEALTHY FRUITS (CC193) | R Fradd | B-/TT | Away very well. Showed speed to take up prominent spot in 4th 2Ls off lead. Travelled comfortably throughout. Made straight 4-wide and responded strongly when asked. Pulled away to win unchallenged 150 M out. Solid effort. |
| 2 | 5 | CONSTELLATION (CE025) | G Mosse | B | Began on terms. Checked shortly after start and again at 1000 M. Kept behind midfield on rail. Eased to 2-wide with cover at 400 M for better running. Obtained run 250 M out and finished off race nicely to be distant 2nd. |
| 3 | 2 | A-TACK (CC343) | O Doleuze | B | Began well from outside gate. Showed good early speed to be in handy position. 1 out within 2Ls from the leader. 3rd to turn home. Joint leaders until 150 M. Unable to match pace of winner, but kept on well to finish 3rd. |
| 4 | 7 | JET RISE (CD346) | C K Tong | SB/H | Jumped best from awkward alley to take early lead on fence. Took hold and raced 1L behind leader from 600 M. Looked likely after the 300 M. Gradually weakened final stages and didn't have enough to hang on to 3rd. |
| 5 | 11 | SUPER SPECIAL (CE225) | B Prebble | H/TT1 | Checked shortly after the start and raced towards the rear. Kept 3-wide until straight. Drifted very wide on straightening. Ran on steadily in straight. Made good ground final 200 M to be nearest at finish. |
| 6 | 3 | MOONGLOW (CG008) | F Coetzee | B1/TT | Began with them. Pushed hard to take up midfield spot on fence. Niggled along on bend. 4Ls back in 6th on straightening. Kept giving in straight, but lacked extra gear to be a factor. Held up slightly last 100 M. |
| 7 | 10 | SOUTH CHINA NINETY (CA174) | H W Lai | B | Broke well. Kept around midfield within 4Ls off speed. Niggled along to stay interested down backstretch. Pushed hard on bend in the 3-wide spot without cover. Turned in very wide on straightening and ran home only one-paced. |
| 8 | 8 | UNIVERSAL KOMISSAR (CE096) | S Dye | -- | Broke with field. Lacked early speed and settled in last. Over 9Ls behind leader on rail at 600 M. Last after straightening. Made run down middle of track final 200 M. Closed race well, but simply set too big a task. |
| 9 | 12 | ARIGATO (CC350) | W C Marwing | B | Away well. Good early speed to be forward. Became unbalanced behind and lost ground at 1000 M. Always there within 3Ls from lead in 5th. Same turning straight. Switched wide on straight and closed race only fairly. |
| 10 | 4 | WYNDAM PLENTY (CD356) | E Saint-Martin | CP/XB/TT2 | Average begin and was slow into stride. Improved on bridle to dispute lead mid-way. Held 1L advantage into straight 1 off the fence. Stayed on until 200 M but emptied out thereafter. |
| 11 | 1 | MAGNIFICENT HORSE (CD103) | D Whyte | V | Average to jump. Pushed to keep pace early stages and was checked entering back straight. Raced in the rear thereafter. Followed rails into straight and didn't have much luck final 100 M. Not fully tested. |
| 12 | 9 | HUANG PU DRAGON (CE120) | G Schofield | CP-/B1/H | Began fairly. Struck heels, blundered and almost fell at 1000 M. Then raced behind midfield in a 2-wide spot. Lost ground on the circle and dropped to 2nd last after straightening. Found nothing in straight. |
