| 2 | 5 | CHEETAH BOY (L192) | Y T Cheng | B/H | Began with line, ridden with purpose, raced outside leader but hung on bend drifting 3 wide, kept giving in straight but was no match for winner, beat 3rd clearly. |
| 3 | 2 | REGENCY LUCK (M291) | A Suborics | B/TT | Bounced with first few, allowed to take a sit off pace 3Ls or so back on rails, ideal trip in transit, stuck on evenly but couldn't get closer to first two final furlong. |
