| 1 | 8 | NOT USUAL TALENT (C095) | A Domeyer | -- | Shifted across behind runners, raced near last 6-7Ls away, wide on straightening, quickened up smartly to lead 150M, kept on strongly final stages for 3rd win of the season. |
| 2 | 7 | MR SO AND SO (B412) | J Moreira | TT | From wide draw eased back after the jump, raced as the back-marker early stages, kept to inside rounding home turn, kicked home well straightening, held by winner final 150M, well clear from rest. |
| 3 | 6 | GREEN LUCK (B413) | C Y Ho | B/H | Held up near the rear 5-6Ls off the pace, 3-wide entering back straight, swung widest home, stayed on steadily to claim 3rd near line without reaching top 2. |
| 4 | 10 | FAT TURTLE (C215) | Z Purton | B | Pressed forward, travelled keenly 1200M when racing outside leader, vied for lead early straight, briefly led 200M, couldn't hold off first 2 inside 150M, lost 3rd close home. |
| 5 | 4 | ENRICHMENT (B457) | A Sanna | P | Settled behind mid-division along the inside, 7th at 400M, worked home steadily without ever looking likely. |
| 6 | 12 | PERFECT MATCH (B393) | M L Yeung | B/TT | Chased leaders, no closer than 3-wide throughout, kept on same pace in straight after tough trip, never threatened leaders. |
| 7 | 3 | CIRCUIT GLORY (A402) | K H Chan | H/TT | Pushed along to take up running along the fence, was taken on by rival entering back-straight, lost lead 250M then weakened away. |
| 8 | 9 | DIVINE UNICORN (C269) | M F Poon | -- | Settled down in 7th spot, 3-wide behind midfield, brought wide home, couldn't quicken, never a threat. |
| 9 | 2 | TURIN REDSTAR (B092) | K C Leung | CP/TT | With leaders early stages then eased back to be 2Ls off the pace on settling, only laboured in straight. Never a factor. |
| 10 | 5 | RIVET (B088) | K Teetan | -- | Restrained to race behind midfield, 4Ls off the pace in 8th spot, couldn't go on passing 300M, eased when no chance. (Lame RF leg). |
| 11 | 1 | LITTERATEUR (V183) | M Chadwick | CP/H/XB | Chased leaders, wide no cover from 1100M, raced keenly and moved forward to be joining leaders 3-wide, run ended soon after straightening as hard run took toll. |
| 12 | 11 | HAPPY DRAGON (B099) | G van Niekerk | H | Chased leaders along the fence, came under heavy pressure 500M, bumped by rival 250M and unbalanced but already beaten at that point. |
