| 1 | 11 | IMPLIED VOLATILITY (CK046) | Y T Cheng | B | Lacked early speed and had to be shaken up soon after the start, held running in midfield but always in touch, responded well and led near 150 M, kept on strongly to score in fine style. |
| 2 | 3 | FOREST STAR (CJ167) | M Chadwick | TT | Away in line, dropped back to a position behind midfield, 4Ls down on straightening, made promising headway from 400 M to beat everything but the winner. Finished well clear of the rest. |
