Horse Name | Jockey | Gear | Comment |
| 1 | 7 | SUPER LEGENDS (H364) | H T Mo | B/TT | From draw 1 always stayed close enough to the pace, loomed large behind leaders turning home, short of room mid-straight before getting clear run final 150M, sprinted quickly to get up near line. |
| 2 | 4 | PAKISTAN LEGACY (J363) | Z Purton | TT1 | Away well and soon in front, chased leader from 1000M, travelled well into straight and re-gained the lead 300M, kept on final stages only to be caught close home. |
| 3 | 2 | AERIS NOVA (J534) | H Bowman | B/XB/TT | Held up 2-wide in midfield, driven 350M and had every chance, stayed on to go 3rd close home without troubling first two. |
| 4 | 3 | FRANCIS MEYNELL (J394) | M Chadwick | H-/TT | Caught wide no cover from draw 12, continued forward to lead to avoid covering additional ground, headed near 300M, refused to give in, fought hard until no extra late stages. Lost 3rd in photo finish. |
| 5 | 11 | LUCKY ARCHANGEL (E385) | M F Poon | XB-/B | Jumped on terms, pressed on to be 3rd on settling, fought hard to stay in contention early straight, run ended 100M. |
| 6 | 1 | MIGHTY STRIDE (G346) | A Badel | V | Dropped back to race near the rear, 3-wide home turn and held up for a short distance near 450M, ran on mildly under top weight but was never a winning hope. |
| 7 | 6 | RIGHTEOUS ARION (H059) | Y L Chung | TT | Shifted in at the start and became unbalanced, unable to slot in from a wide barrier, caught racing 4-wide without cover in mid-pack, had some work to do 400M and was just fair to the line. |
| 8 | 8 | SWAGGER BRO (K089) | M L Yeung | -- | Restrained to race behind midfield along the inside, failed to run on passing 400M, never a threat to leaders. |
| 9 | 5 | VON BAER (K198) | B Thompson | -- | Jumped awkwardly and lost ground, ended up racing at the tail of the field, 4Ls behind leader 400M, lacked a kick to make an impact. |
| 10 | 12 | GAMEPLAYER ELITE (H356) | A Atzeni | SR/TT | Jumped awkwardly and shortly after the start was bumped, maintained a spot in second half of the field and raced keenly middle stages, failed to run on final 400M. |
| 11 | 10 | SILK ROAD GLORY (J361) | H Bentley | B1/TT1 | Jumped only fairly, reserved at the rear of the field, last turning in and wasn't able to finish the race off. |
| 12 | 9 | CONSPIRATOR (K090) | L Hewitson | XB1 | Settled down 3-wide in midfield, lost cover home turn, came up empty turning home then weakened to last. (Jockey : his mount changed stride after 550M and came under pressure soon after.) |
