| 3 | 11 | HAPPY CHAMP (BS226) | S Seamer | B | Raced 2 and 3-wide about 3Ls off pace from 1000 M out to home straight when under pressure, kept responding to hard driving to be nearest at finish. |
| 4 | 6 | CIRCUIT KINGDOM (CB046) | D Whyte | -- | On fence 2Ls to 3Ls off pace early on, lost position about 600 M out and turned in racing 4-wide, outpaced at top of straight but stayed on again to draw closer near line. |
| 5 | 8 | SUCCESSFUL SPIRIT (BV226) | F Coetzee | B/TT | Driven to race in 2nd place early 1L off pace and 2-wide, relegated to 2Ls 3rd turning for home, one-paced to line. |
