| 1 | 11 | ON SHAN EXPRESS (CB362) | D Whyte | -- | In touch early. 2 to 3Ls off the pace in midfield from 1200 M. Ran on determinedly in straight to take charge 50 M out despite hanging in. |
| 2 | 12 | MILLENNIUM SUPREME (BV228) | Y T Cheng | CP/TT | Led until collared by the winner 50 M out but did enough to secure 2nd. (See Racing Incidents.) |
| 3 | 3 | TURF GOLD (CD342) | H W Lai | -- | Lost ground at start. Behind midfield about 4Ls back after steadying off heels 1200 M out. Held up at 400 M and again turning in. Made up some ground final 200 M for a distant 3rd. |
| 4 | 6 | JUSTINIAN (CB324) | W C Marwing | -- | Travelled prominently just 1L off the pace from 1200 M. Kept on one-paced in straight and lost out on a remote 3rd close home. |
| 5 | 7 | A BETTER DRAGON (CC329) | C K Tong | SR | Midfield or better. Shifted off rail for running in straight and kept on without posing any major threat to principals. |
