10 | 6 | ENTERTAINING (CC057) | P Payne | SR | 7Ls behind and 2-wide in 10th at 1000 M, roughly the same into home straight, made some late headway without posing much of a threat. |

14 | 13 | MY FORTUNE (CB048) | M W Leung | SR | Very reluctant to race and immediately detached by 15Ls, always a very long way behind. (Lame.) |
