| 1 | 8 | HOLEY DOLLAR (CK118) | W M Lai | H | Out in line, soon ran up to share the lead on rails, quickened well when asked for efforts at the top of home straight, did well enough to withhold the challenger. |
| 2 | 2 | FRIENDLY GAINS (CG300) | D Whyte | -- | Settled 2Ls behind the pace, caught 3-wide until found the fence at home turn, improved along the inner in the home straight, finished off well final 200 M for 2nd. |
