| 1 | 6 | JOY TRUMPS (CD242) | B Prebble | B/TT | Away in line, drifted back to settle in midfield on rails 4Ls off pace, had a soft trail throughout, saved ground on fence, in traffic turning in to 200 M, sprinted sharply to collar leaders and score with something in reserve. |
| 2 | 7 | PRIME TARGET (CH242) | F Coetzee | -- | Moderate to break, regathered to hold coveted 1 out 1 back spot, travelled well 2Ls off front, tracked well turning in, switched out and closed steadily producing an improved finish for 2nd. |
| 3 | 4 | HAPPY HEROES (CD261) | O Doleuze | PC2 | No speed from outset, pushed along to hold spot behind midfield, raced 2 wide 5Ls off frontrunners, in traffic and bumped on bend, switched to middle on straightening and closed best of beaten runners to take 3rd. |
| 4 | 5 | CASH IN (CG138) | Y T Cheng | CP | Fastest into stride, challenged for front but unable to slot in, raced 3 wide without cover 2Ls back, had tough run to bend, improved and challenged turning, hit front but peaked on run at 100 M. |
| 5 | 10 | LIGHTNING SPEED (CG263) | A Delpech | CP | Average jump, soon regathered and drove through to hold leaders back, had run of race thereafter with steady tempo right there on turning, gap emerged but just produced a one paced finish last furlong. |
| 6 | 11 | NOBLE ZOOM (CC298) | C K Tong | V | Away fairly, gathered momentum to race up outside leader, had a good trip at leaders girth with moderate tempo, challenged on turning, took over briefly but lacked a dash and run ended at 200 M, weakened late. |
| 7 | 2 | LAZY BUDDIES (CC208) | D Whyte | B | Ordinary getaway, ended up amongst last few, raced 2 wide 6Ls back, unsuited by tempo in mid-section, switched 3 wide in circle, came 4 wide into straight but lacked usual finish making ground to 200 M before putting up white flag. |
| 8 | 8 | MASTER ABLE (CD349) | K S Yu | B | Standard jump, little pace in early stages, positioned in rearward division 2 to 3 wide 5Ls back, never better than midfield to turn, switched wide on turning, closed only fairly at same speed over concluding stages. |
| 9 | 9 | JUSTINIAN (CB324) | K L Chui | -- | Even beginning, took a midfield trail behind speed, raced 4Ls back in two wide line, had good trip but found traffic on circle and again at 300 M, closed only moderately when clear. |
| 10 | 1 | ARROGANCE (CA177) | H W Lai | B | Jumped well, had plenty of early speed, took up running and dictated terms at a steady tempo, 1/2L clear on circle, challenged on turning, gave in weakly for a below par run. (Blood in trachea.) |
| 11 | 3 | SHINING DAY (CE163) | S K Sit | B/TT | Restrained from outset and taken down to rear, always urged along 7 to 8Ls back, not helped by tempo but made 3 wide run on circle, failed to run on and made little impression. |
