Horse Name | Jockey | Gear | Comment |
| 1 | 8 | KINGS FALCON (CJ185) | D Beadman | H | Began well, slotted into ideal spot 1 out 1 back 3Ls away, had best run to bend, improved from 400 M, let down strongly at 250 M, and went on to score impressively. |
| 2 | 4 | REGENCY DRAGON (CH001) | F Coetzee | B/TT | First to break, lead comfortably, dictated pace to suit 1 to 2Ls clear in mid-section, ran race to suit to bend, kicked strongly at 400 M but couldn't respond when winner ascended at 200 M. |
| 3 | 6 | IMPERIAL APPLAUSE (CG209) | M Du Plessis | B | No speed as usual, ended up 7 to 8Ls back in running line, not advantaged by tempo, still well back to 400 M, made good ground between horses in straight to be nearest on line. |
| 4 | 10 | HURRICANE DASH (CJ186) | Z Purton | XB1/TT1 | Even jump, positioned 3 to 4Ls back on fence, not used in middle stages however proved difficult to settle, angled into clear approaching 400 M, made reasonable ground to take spot in frame. |
| 5 | 7 | MAVERICK STAR (CE279) | Y T Cheng | -- | Reasonable beginning, positioned closer than usual 4 to 5Ls back from leaders, had chance with good run to bend, closed gradually but failed to find extra gear. |
| 6 | 13 | KING PRAWN SUPREME (CJ076) | W M Lai | B- | Out smartly, took spot on leaders back, had an ideal run thereafter, still 2Ls down turning, struggled to pick up and just kept on at same speed in straight. |
| 7 | 3 | SURVEY SURVEY (CH070) | C K Tong | XB/TT | Average jump and taken back from a wide gate, 6 to 7Ls back in running, same margin down turning, between horses for most of straight and was not properly tested. |
| 8 | 9 | GALEN WIN (CJ065) | B Prebble | CP | Away evenly, unable to slot in and was posted 3-wide without cover 3Ls back, did plenty on circle, 2Ls down on turning, kept giving to 250 M but hard run took toll and weakened out late. |
| 9 | 1 | FLAMING LAMBORGINI (CE146) | E Saint-Martin | B2/TT | Slowly away, settled a clear last 9 to 10Ls back, ridden along to hold spot on bend, last on turning, gave impossible start but did make some late ground despite never really likely. |
| 10 | 11 | DOWN THE WICKET (CH059) | G Boss | TT | Fastest out, pressed on to race outside leader, always comfortable 2Ls away, same margin down on turning, failed to respond and dropped out soon after straightening. |
| 11 | 12 | BEAUTY EXPRESS (CJ284) | H W Lai | -- | Ordinary jump, soon settled in rearward division, 6 to 7Ls from front runners throughout, saved ground on bend, couldn't respond turning and just battled away in straight. |
| 12 | 5 | HORACE'S CHOICE (CH169) | O Doleuze | H/TT | Taken back from an awkward draw, raced 3-wide at rear 8Ls away, travelled fairly in mid-section, struggled to improve at 400 M, no impression in straight. (Blood in trachea.) |
| 13 | 2 | GREAT GUY (CH112) | K L Chui | TT | Began only fairly, posted wide in midfield 5Ls back, did have cover to bend, pushed wide at 400 M, found little and dropped out soon after turning. |
