| 1 | 3 | DURABLE (CE190) | D Beadman | -- | 2-wide and 4Ls off speed in midfield at halfway, pushed out wider to challenge 400 M and 4-wide entering homestretch, kept on to lead at the 200 M, all out to score. |
| 2 | 10 | KING OF SHAVER (CH041) | G Boss | B | 4-back on fence about 4Ls off pace in 8th or so until straightening, headway until being tight for room at 200 M, ran on well again for 2nd once clear. |
| 3 | 7 | BEST FRIEND (CH240) | B Prebble | -- | Not looking good when under pressure and 8Ls back in 10th at the 800 M, making some ground 6-wide (widest of all) into home straight, stayed on strongly for a place. |
| 4 | 8 | VINTAGE GOLD (CG094) | M Nunes | SR | Led early on by 1L on fence, handed up advantage from 1000 M to track in 2nd until home bend, led again 250 M out but soon headed and lost a place final strides. |
| 5 | 6 | RAIN CHECK (CH254) | D Whyte | B | 2-wide and 2Ls back in 3rd early on, 3-back on fence at the 800 M, right there with every possible hope into home straight, lacked the kick and missed a place final 50 M. |
| 6 | 5 | PRIMIATA (CG226) | C K Tong | B/TT | Crowded at start, worse than midfield on fence about 6Ls off speed at 1000 M, about 4Ls down and 2-wide in 9th turning for home, outpaced inside final 200 M. |
| 7 | 9 | DIAGHILEV (CH241) | Z Purton | CP-/B1 | Held a nice position 2-wide about 3Ls back in 5th until final turn, just over 1L back in 5th at the 200 M but couldn't follow through and faded, no excuses. |
| 8 | 4 | ALWAYS ZIETEN (CB090) | H W Lai | -- | Slowest to break, 7Ls last at 1200 M and still well back turning for home, never landed a blow. |
| 9 | 1 | MAGI JOY (CH056) | M W Leung | B | Caught 3-wide no cover about 1L back in 3rd at the 1000 M, 2-wide for most of back straight and 1L down in 2nd swinging for home, soon yielded ground. |
| 10 | 12 | FRONTIER (CH023) | C W Wong | TT1 | Drifted back towards rear and 9Ls behind at 1000 M, still well back when badly checked making final turn, no impression. |
| 11 | 2 | MIRACULOUS (CE115) | P H Lo | TT | Led by 1L out 2-wide at the 1000 M, couldn't cross until the 600 M, headed at top of home straight and faded out. |
| 12 | 11 | NATURAL FATCHOY (CG282) | K L Chui | B/TT | Trapped very wide throughout from widest gate, 5-wide no cover and prominent 1300 M out, midfield but still wide until home turn, petered out. |
