| 1 | 7 | CARRY GOOD NEWS (CG219) | B Prebble | -- | From a wide gate was allowed to settle in last position. Was stoked along from about the 450 M and swung wide turning for home mowing down rivals in the shadows of the post. |
| 2 | 10 | ROYAL PORTRAIT (CJ092) | H W Lai | -- | Enjoyed the run of the race behind the leader on the paint. Peeled out near the 500 M and improved nicely but came up marginally short after having every chance. |
| 3 | 4 | HOLIDAY SUN (CJ328) | M L Yeung | CP2 | Landed midfield 1 off with cover. Worked home well to finish in the frame. |
| 4 | 2 | MUTUAL FRIENDSHIP (CG260) | S K Sit | -- | Travelled worse than midfield 2-wide with cover. Closed off soundly. |
| 5 | 3 | HIGH INTELLIGENT (CD317) | M Chadwick | B/TT | Forced to work for the majority of the trip, 3 deep without cover with the front markers. Managed to cross to race 1 off as joint leader by the 500 M, however faded in the run to the line. |
| 6 | 1 | RELY ON ME (CE068) | P H Lo | B/TT | Raced outside the leader before crossing to the fence and assuming the lead at the 500 M. Weakened over the concluding stages. |
| 7 | 5 | SUNSHINE BOY (CJ281) | K L Chui | H | Raced on the back of the speed 2-wide with cover. Rolled out making the turn at the 500 M coursing 3 deep without cover. Not likely from that point on. |
| 8 | 6 | FLORAL IMAGE (CK027) | Y T Cheng | B-/TT | Raced behind midfield the fence. Whacked away at the same speed in the final stretch. |
| 9 | 12 | WADADELIGHT (CC340) | C K Tong | B | Jumped well and speared forward but was caught wide and settled 3 deep with cover midfield. Struggled in the straight. |
| 10 | 9 | CENTURY MOLLY (CK067) | C W Wong | H-/P1/TT- | Travelled in 2nd last position along the paint. Never quickened at the business end. |
| 11 | 11 | SUPERB GAINS (CJ058) | Z Purton | -- | Settled 3 back the fence. Had every chance. |
| 12 | 8 | PLOT RATIO (CK044) | M W Leung | B/SR | Went forward to lead along the fence. Commenced to tire near the 500 and was a spent force soon after finishing tailed out. (To Trial.) |
