| 4 | 7 | CLASSA WIN (CA115) | E Legrix | -- | Held up 5Ls or 6Ls off pace and out 2-wide 1000 M out, same distance adrift of pace but 6-wide (widest of all) turning for home, 2Ls down 200 M out, kept on evenly to post. |

| 7 | 1 | ASPIRATION (BP003) | D Whyte | -- | Settled 5Ls off pace racing 2 and 3-wide 1000 M out, not much closer turning in, very one-paced in straight. |
