Perfect One secured a narrow victory in his career debut by taking the lead 500 meters from the finish and maintaining a strong pace, though the winning time was slow. Secret Ingredient, who led early from gate six, finished a close second with a solid debut performance, while Talents Champion showed promise by finishing third after a late surge. Silver Knight came in fourth after a steady run, and both Glorious Hero and Ka Ying Grateful, who finished fifth and last respectively, will need more time and experience to develop.

The race saw several incidents: Ka Ying Grateful jumped fairly but was found to have a heart condition requiring further assessment. Perfect One and Secret Ingredient both jumped awkwardly and were sent for post-race sampling. Glorious Hero also jumped awkwardly, while Secret Ingredient tended to lay in near the rail, and Talents Champion laid out under pressure in the final 200 meters.
