Horse Name | Jockey | Gear | Comment |
| 1 | 8 | TELECOM GOGO (CJ346) | Z Purton | B1 | Midfield 2-wide and 4Ls off speed in middle stages, quickened up from top of straight to lead inside the 200 M, kept on well, tidy win. |
| 2 | 5 | HIGH INTELLIGENT (CD317) | B Doyle | B/TT | Vied for early lead out 2-wide, a neck clear and pressured turning for home, grabbed by the winner inside the 200 M but held a clear 2nd. |
| 3 | 3 | REGENCY KINGDOM (CK031) | M Chadwick | TT | Settled in 7th between 2-wide and 3-wide through first half, over 3Ls back turning for home, kept on unthreateningly for 3rd. |
| 4 | 2 | TRAVEL GUIDE (CK101) | W C Marwing | B/H | Ideally placed in 'one-out-one-back' spot until final turn, was given every hope to at least place, lacked acceleration. |
| 5 | 1 | SAPELLI (CK191) | D Whyte | B | Disputed early speed on fence, a neck down in 2nd turning for home, didn't find much off the bridle and missed out on a place in final 100 M. |
| 6 | 6 | MAGNANIMOUS (CK111) | C W Wong | CP1 | Fractious in gates and slowest out by 2Ls, about 8Ls last at the 800 M, ran on through spent rivals in the straight, never nearer. |
| 7 | 4 | CHEEKY LAD (CG198) | B Prebble | B | Soon box-seated on rails 2Ls back in 4th, still close-up and with place prospects at the 200 M, couldn't seal the deal as is so often the case. |
| 8 | 7 | SUPREME DRAGON (CH161) | J Winks | B2 | Keen at halfway, midfield and 4Ls behind spinning for home, couldn't draw any closer. |
| 9 | 13 | ROYAL DOMAIN (CH287) | M Du Plessis | -- | Taken back from wide gate and soon one from rear, at least 5Ls back before last bend, brief rally at the 200 M, could not sustain. |
| 10 | 14 | LUCKY DRAGON (CD322) | W Pike | TT | Always worse than midfield, 5Ls down in 10th turning for home, that was about as close as he got. |
| 11 | 10 | SPARKLING (CK149) | K T Yeung | -- | Covered ground out wide no cover down back straight, pressed on to race 3rd from 900 M to home turn when 1L back, steadily faded out of the picture. |
| 12 | 9 | SOLAR UP (CK065) | S K Sit | -- | 3-wide with cover at the 800 M when about 4Ls off pace, hard pressured to retain this proximity off last corner, weakened. |
| 13 | 12 | WINNER (CK159) | A Gryder | -- | Early pace but opted 3-back on rails 4Ls off pace until final bend, very one-paced. |
| 14 | 11 | WADASURPRISE (CK272) | M W Leung | -- | Always rearward, 6Ls back in 12th at the 800 M, last turning for home and ceded further ground on the run-in, another poor run. |
