| 1 | 4 | CHARGE ON (D162) | M F Poon | B | Raced in midfield between runners throughout early & middle stages. Eased the second widest on cornering, entered last section 4L from lead before finishing powerfully, dashing to lead near 100m & continuing strongly late. |
| 2 | 7 | SOLAR POWER (C407) | K C Leung | -- | Raced third on rail after start before shifting away from inside & getting nice run 1,1 from near half-way. Entered last section 2L from lead before closing well in final 250m to snare narrow second on line. |
| 3 | 2 | NORDIC WARRIOR (B371) | Z Purton | B | Slow to begin, mustered speed after start to race midfield on rail. Moved away from inside near 800m, shifted wider on cornering, dashed to share lead momentarily near 150m, over-run late, and only beaten half length. |
| 4 | 11 | WONDER EXPRESS (C224) | A Badel | CP/TT | Raced wide without cover in midfield after start before improving position to race outside the leader by 700m. Continued close, holding narrow second by the 200m before being over-run by fast finishers in closing stages. |
| 5 | 12 | BULB ELITE (A183) | V Borges | -- | Raced third in early stages before getting good position in midfield away from rail in middle stages. Eased wider on cornering, entered last section over 3L from lead before making up some ground to be beaten less than 2L. |
| 6 | 9 | SPARKLING STAR (D007) | K Teetan | TT | Shifted behind runners after start to race near rear. Continued in second half, had some difficulty getting clear running on straightening when 4.5L from lead before shifting out at 200m & finishing well to midfield. (Bled). |
| 7 | 3 | CHAMP PATROL (D086) | N Callan | H1 | Steadied after start when attempting to get cover before drifting back to second last near the 800m. Continued with only one behind on straightening, 5L from lead before making steady late ground to midfield. |
| 8 | 5 | COLONEL (D090) | C Schofield | B | Began very fast & came across from outside barrier to lead. Continued to hold narrow lead at the 200m mark before peaking & tiring quickly in late stages. |
| 9 | 1 | ELIGERE (C473) | M Chadwick | B | Drifted back, just worse than midfield between runners after start. Taken wider near 850m before racing 3 wide with cover thereafter. Cornered widest, 5.5L from lead before only maintaining position in run to line. No threat. |
| 10 | 10 | DESTINE JEWELLERY (D032) | J Moreira | V | Crowded on jumping & consequently raced rearward in early stages before improving position along rail to midfield, 4.5L from lead nearing half-way. Offered little in last section & weakened out to be well beaten. |
