Horse Name | Jockey | Gear | Comment |
| 1 | 6 | NEARLY FINE (E430) | C Y Ho | TT | Shifted across behind runners to find cover after the start, held up near last early stages, took closer order 600M, quickened up strongly to lead 150M, won going away. |
| 2 | 7 | COMET SPLENDIDO (G071) | H Bentley | TT | Crossed to the fence 1600M, tracked leader in 3rd spot, responded well 300M and challenged for the lead, outpaced by winner final 150M. Well clear from rest. |
| 3 | 2 | ABOVE (B345) | R Maia | B/TT | Reserved behind midfield 5Ls off the pace, had a ground saving trip on inside, made mild progress final 300M but no threat to first two. |
| 4 | 11 | PERFECT MARYKNOLL (E319) | C Wong | B/TT | From draw 10 made early use to find the lead, set fast pace, caught 250M, faded late stages. (Jockey was told he should have made more effort to steady the tempo after 1200M.) |
| 5 | 10 | NATURAL STORM (C461) | M F Poon | V | Lacked early pace, soon in last place, switched to 3-wide back straight, swung widest for home, stayed on without threatening leaders. |
| 6 | 3 | ROMANTIC COMBO (D271) | C L Chau | B/TT | Went forward, tracked runaway leader, not going the pace to challenge passing 400M, soon dropped out of contention. |
| 7 | 9 | ROBOT WARRIOR (C532) | H N Wong | B | Towards the rear early stages, shuffled back to last 700M, ran on fairly turning in, never threatened. |
| 8 | 4 | S J TOURBILLON (G138) | L Hewitson | SR/XB/TT | Held up in mid-division, saved ground along the inside, fought on one paced in the straight, no threat from 200M. |
| 9 | 8 | BLASTOISE (C450) | L Ferraris | -- | Slotted into a midfield spot along the 2-path, responded fairly when driven out 400M, no extra mid-straight. |
| 10 | 1 | SUPERBELLA (D128) | Z Purton | B/TT | Settled down behind midfield, switched to 3-wide 800M, awkwardly placed 300M, failed to run on thereafter. |
| 11 | 5 | SUPER OASIS (D085) | M Chadwick | B/H/TT | Caught wide no cover chasing leaders, wide into straight before quickly dropping out of contention |
