1 | 1 | FIGHT HERO (T186) | H W Lai | H | Began awkwardly, ridden to go forward, settling a half length behind leader before turn. Joint leader passing 450m, kicked ahead on straightening, under pressure final 100m but had enough in hand to hold off challenger. |
2 | 6 | ARIZONA BLIZZARD (V264) | J Moreira | H | Began fairly, not pushed, settling behind midfield along rail. Stayed on rail around turn, blocked for run top of straight, got clear passage 200m out and finished strongly to miss narrowly. |
