| Placing | Horse No |
Horse Name | Jockey | Gear | Comment |
| 1 | 1 | GOOD PARTNER (CE221) | O Doleuze | XB | 4Ls back in 6th at halfway, loomed closer and going well turning for home, led 250 M out, always repelling the challenge of BEST FRIEND. |
| 2 | 4 | BEST FRIEND (CH240) | B Prebble | B | Towards rear with cover about 7Ls down early on, ridden along but closer turning in, a neck down in 2nd at 200 M, couldn't overhaul the winner. |
| 3 | 2 | ISTIDE (CJ089) | G Mosse | B1 | Midfield about 5Ls back at halfway, 4Ls back off final bend, headway to dispute 3rd about 1L down at the 200 M, never got to grips with quinella pair. |
| 4 | 13 | KING OF SPADES (CC056) | W M Lai | B | Restrained in rear as usual, about 7Ls down turning for home, made some decent late ground for 4th. |
| 5 | 10 | ZEPHYRUS (CH285) | K T Yeung | B/TT1 | 2-wide and 3Ls back in 4th at the 1000 M and closer turning for home, disappointingly one-paced given his soft passage. |
| 6 | 6 | LUCKY DRAGON (CD322) | D Whyte | TT | Went back from widest gate, 7Ls back in rear bunch at halfway, ran on past a clutch of spent rivals in the home straight, no threat overall. |
| 7 | 12 | FIRST KNIGHT (CB357) | G Boss | B | No Comments on Running information for this horse. |
| 8 | 3 | ISLAND SUNRISE (CE276) | K L Chui | TT | Worse than mid-division about 6Ls down along back straight, 4-wide (widest of all) turning for home, headway to be 2Ls back at 200 M, no extra late. |
| 9 | 5 | HOT SUN (CJ005) | C W Wong | -- | Crossed to lead on fence by 1L at the 1000 M, same margin clear turning for home, faded once headed 250 M out. |
| 10 | 7 | TYCOON TAYLOR (CH288) | Y T Cheng | B | Box-seated 2Ls back in 3rd on fence from 1000 M to home turn, without clear running around the 200 M but disappointing overall given his easy run. |
| 11 | 11 | LOHAN (CH279) | C K Tong | CP-/B1 | Squeezed out at start, worse than midfield on fence about 6Ls behind through to home straight, offered very little. |
| 12 | 14 | CELESTIAL WONDER (CG046) | M Nunes | XB/TT | 3 and 4-wide no cover throughout, 3Ls back in 5th at halfway, under pressure entering the straight and found nothing. |
| 13 | 8 | REDHILL COMMANDER (CH078) | M Du Plessis | -- | Always in last pair and never closer than 5Ls from the front at any stage. |
| 14 | 9 | WIN MORE (CH243) | M W Leung | CP-/B1 | Tended to hang throughout, 2-wide and 1L back in 2nd from 1000 M to home straight, soon beaten and eased down final 200 M. |
