Horse Name | Jockey | Gear | Comment |
| 1 | 2 | SINGLE MALT (CK110) | M Chadwick | B/TT | Gradually crept forward on jumping from a wide barrier, positioned one out one back turning for home, got past the leader nearing 200M and stuck on right the way to the line. |
| 2 | 4 | HIGH NOTE (CK081) | K C Leung | B | Positively ridden after the start and led, was tackled soon turning into straight, headed before 200M but rallied back and pushed the winner all the way to the line. |
| 3 | 3 | SPLENDID SAILS (CG077) | B Prebble | B/SR | Along the fence in chasing group 2-3Ls back, ran on to go 3rd 150M out but offered little threat to the first two. |
| 4 | 7 | KING'S CHOICE (CG040) | H W Lai | -- | Quickly into stride, tracked leader prominently along the fence, couldn't match strides with the first 2 in straight, weakened over the final stages and just held on for 4th. |
| 5 | 11 | METRO RIDER (CJ264) | W Pike | H | Settled 2-3Ls back from leader, had his chance and stayed on but lacked the pace to get involved. |
| 6 | 6 | WINNING STRATEGY (CJ353) | S K Sit | -- | Unable to slot in and caught 3-wide in midfield, plodded on final 350m and never reached leaders. |
| 7 | 1 | NAMJONG FIGHTERS (CG308) | Y T Cheng | B- | Slow to begin, hard driven early to stay in midfield and inclined to hang out in early and middle stages, took time to get going in straight, stayed on inside 200M but was never threatening. |
| 8 | 10 | COULDN'T CARE LESS (CD009) | Z Purton | -- | Dropped back to last, crept closer over the home turn to be 5Ls down passing 400M, couldn't pick up from off the pace and failed to make an impression. |
| 9 | 8 | NIGHT HUNTER III (CH102) | B Doyle | CP-/B2 | Towards the rear 5Ls off the pace, pushed along inside 500M but stayed at the same pace throughout. |
| 10 | 12 | ALIVE AND KICKING (CJ071) | W M Lai | B | In touch, 4th turning into straight but weakened quickly under pressure. |
| 11 | 9 | GOLDEN BOY (CJ263) | M W Leung | B/H/TT | Showed no early speed despite urging and not able to go forward, caught wide towards the rear throughout, soon behind passing 400M. (Unacceptable performance.) |
| 12 | 5 | TIBIDABO (CK008) | O Doleuze | V1/TT | In mid-division early, hampered 600M and shuffled back to last, didn't recover and finished tailed out. (Unacceptable performance.) |
