2 6 TAI SING YEH (CL037) D Whyte B1 Held up near last along the rails, travelled well but had no clear run early straight, finished off strongly and would have been closer.
3 9 GROOVY (CL401) M Du Plessis -- Always prominent in 3rd, lacked winner's acceleration, kept on evenly final 200M, lost 2nd place near line.
