| 1 | 12 | FOREVER FORTUNE (CG145) | W Pike | B/TT | Swiftly away but dropped back to a 3-wide position behind midfield, made promising headway from 300 M and was well on top inside 50 M. |
| 2 | 7 | MYTHIC STEED (CD208) | G Cheyne | B | Forced wide from his high draw and raced 2Ls off the pace without cover throughout, ran on well and looked a real threat 200 M out before the winner flew by late on. |
| 3 | 8 | DRAGON BOY (CJ204) | D Whyte | B | Even break, raced on the outside of mid-division 3Ls back in 6th, driven passing 500 M, took time to find his stride but picked up well final 200 M to take 3rd on the line. |
| 4 | 13 | PURE ALPHA (CH008) | W M Lai | B- | Gradually crept forward, tracked leader one back on the fence, into clear passing 400 M, challenged strongly and briefly led near 200 M, kept on but just lost 3rd on the line. |
| 5 | 2 | ROCKET AND GOLD (CH015) | C W Wong | TT | Ridden early to hold a position in midfield, steadied near 400 M and made limited progress towards the line. |
| 6 | 10 | CLASSIC KING (CD256) | B Doyle | B/TT | Broke well, held back to a position behind midfield, had 5Ls to make up inside 400 M, made some progress towards the finish but little impression overall. |
| 7 | 5 | FANTASTIC TIME (CH220) | B Prebble | SR/V/TT | Went forward to be one out one back from leader, briefly threatened inside 250 M but not able to sustain run and faded away final 100 M. |
| 8 | 3 | GRANDFIELD (CJ250) | O Doleuze | -- | Taken back on jumping and towards the rear throughout, switched to outside of field passing 500 M, some headway from off the pace but never dangerous. |
| 9 | 14 | EPEE DE HUA (CJ307) | H W Lai | B/TT2 | Near the rear early but moved closer to midfield in middle stages, 5Ls off the pace as they turned into straight, not quicken and got past a few tired runners only. |
| 10 | 9 | ODE TO JOY (CJ298) | C K Tong | V | Even break, gradually moved up to a handy position ahead of midfield, kept on at the same pace early in straight, no extra final 200 M. |
| 11 | 11 | CENTENNIAL SMILE (CG165) | M Chadwick | B | In last and had to be niggled along to stay in touch, 8Ls behind going into straight, not picked up. |
| 12 | 6 | JOYFUL YEARS (CG143) | J Winks | B | Assumed a forward spot as expected and led them slowly in middle stages, headed inside 250 M and weakened rapidly. |
| 13 | 1 | GOLDEN OPPORTUNITY (CJ015) | M L Yeung | B | Along the fence in midfield, found nothing when pressed on inside 400 M, eased over the final 150 M. |
