Horse Name | Jockey | Gear | Comment |
| 1 | 1 | HANNAH KING PRAWN (CJ178) | K L Chui | TT | Settled 4-back along the rails in 9th until the 600 M, edged out wider circling for home, quickened up well to lead 150 M out and won easily. |
| 2 | 2 | AMAZING FORTUNE (CH235) | B Prebble | B | 2-wide and 4Ls back in 5th at the 1000 M, closer turning in with every chance, had no chance with the winner and all out to hold 2nd. |
| 3 | 12 | FORTUNE WARRIOR (CD096) | M W Leung | B- | Slowly away, ran on well in the straight from the rear when 5Ls back in 11th and nearly nicked 2nd. |
| 4 | 4 | NEEDLES AND THREAD (CJ282) | K C Leung | B | 3-wide with cover at the 1000 M in 8th or so, about 3Ls down turning in, recovered minor late ground to take 4th. |
| 5 | 3 | MULTI MILLIONS (CD207) | G Mosse | SR | 3-wide with cover in midfield about 3Ls back until home turn, had his chance to place but bereft of acceleration. |
| 6 | 5 | SEA PRINCE (CJ245) | D Beadman | TT | 3-back along rails about 5Ls behind speed in mid-division at 1000 M, steadied before home turn, never likely to place. |
| 7 | 11 | SUPER FANTASY (CD162) | P H Lo | -- | Slotted into the run of the race 2Ls back in 4th on rails at 1100 M and same and going well turning for home, no excuses for not picking up a lot better. |
| 8 | 8 | SOU MA TAM (CH253) | C Soumillon | B | Disputed early pace, over-raced a little early when leading while opting to race 2-wide while leading, headed just inside furlong pole and fizzled out. (Questioned.) |
| 9 | 6 | DASHING CHAMPION (CC015) | C K Tong | SR | Disputed early pace out 2-wide before handing up to race 1L or 2Ls back in 2nd or 3rd until homestretch, lacked a change of gear. |
| 10 | 7 | FRIENDSHIP (CE066) | M L Yeung | -- | Trapped 3-wide no cover for the duration, pressed forward and 1L back in 2nd making last turn, little surprise that most of the field ran past. |
| 11 | 10 | RAIN OF THUNDER (CJ352) | D Whyte | -- | No early speed, a little keen through first half, one from rear throughout, 6Ls behind in 11th as field packed at the 600 M, offered very little. (Questioned for poor performance.) |
| 12 | 9 | DASH (CG236) | C W Wong | -- | Always rearward and 4-wide no cover for much of the back straight, became detached about 500 M out and ceded further ground. |
