As per Fortinet Study Guide page 363, FortiGate chooses routes in the following order:

1- Most specific route (longest netmask)
2- If multiple routes have the same netmask: pick the one with the lowest distance
3- If distances are equal:
- For dynamic routes: use the lowest metric
- For static routes: use the lowest priority
4- If all values are the same: FortiGate uses ECMP (Equal-Cost Multi-Path) to load balance across all routes
