Horse Name | Jockey | Gear | Comment |
| 1 | 2 | SUPER PLUS (CJ090) | M L Yeung | -- | Enjoyed a nice run in the race along the fence, a couple of lengths from the leaders. Kept to the inside in the final stretch and hit the front near 100m. |
| 2 | 1 | HAWTHORNE (CL136) | G Mosse | SR | Vied for the lead along the fence. Drew a slight margin on straightening and maintained a sound gallop right to the finish. |
| 3 | 7 | MERRY ANNIVERSARY (N085) | J Lloyd | B/XB/TT | Was taken back from the outside gate, drifting back to settle at the tail of the field, 2 wide with cover. Stayed towards the inside rail in the run home and finished off strongly. |
| 4 | 5 | JUN DAO (CL110) | C W Wong | B | Camped with the backmakers along the paint. Swung widest on the home turn and closed off well. |
| 5 | 9 | PROSPEROUS (CL054) | D Whyte | B/TT | Slow to begin settling close to midfield the fence. Worked home well despite negotiating some traffic near the 100m. (Lame in left fore.) |
| 6 | 8 | GOLDEN BAUHINIA (CK123) | O Doleuze | B | Had every chance after tracking the speed, 2 deep with cover. Kept at the same pace in the straight. (Bled.) |
| 7 | 3 | VINTAGE HUSSLER (CL266) | W M Lai | B | Dueled outside the early leader for most of the trip. Was gassed over the final stages. |
| 8 | 4 | FLASHING GUY (CL158) | T H So | CP/TT | Parked midfield, 2 wide with cover. Hampered near the 150m, but was a spent force prior. |
| 9 | 6 | LUCKY TURBO (M231) | Z Purton | TT | Challenged for the lead but was posted 3 wide without cover for most of the journey. Never likely. |
| 10 | 10 | PERFECT FIT (CK323) | M Chadwick | B/TT | Ridden along early but became detached from the field settling a long last. Failed to pass another runner. |
