2 | 3 | GAUCHO (CE033) | F Coetzee | TT | Away fairly, rallied to take up running as usual, rolled along at a solid tempo, kept running freely on circle, pinched a break on entering straight, run ended at 100 M. |

8 | 9 | SUPER BALL (CD064) | Z Purton | B/TT | Began with them, drifted back shortly after when outpaced, ended up 2 wide 5Ls away, helped by fast tempo, made some ground but never really threatened . (Lame day after.) |
9 | 5 | CALIFORNIA HEART (CE078) | K L Chui | B/XB/TT | OK jump but lost ground shortly after, ended up 6Ls back on rails, saved ground throughout and helped by fast tempo, didn't finish race off making only moderate headway. |
