6 1 GOOD BOY BOY (CK388) Z Purton -- Did itself no favors by overracing when travelling handy to the leaders, 3 deep with cover. Battled on gamely to the wire.

12 5 DESTINY'S CHILD (CK156) T H So B/XB/TT Not the best to begin then was ridden along to race prominently but was caught wide and without cover for most of the trip. Never likely.
