| 4 | 9 | SACRED IBIS (A127) | M F Poon | XB | Slow to begin, recovered to race in midfield along the fence, ran on mildly from 300M, disappointed for running 150M and again short of room late stages. |

| 12 | 5 | WINNING FOR ALL (D391) | C Y Ho | B/H/XB | Not far off the early pace, came under pressure 650 and became badly unbalanced, eased from 500M as jockey felt something may have gone amiss. (No Vet findings / Unacceptable Performance.) |
