| 8 | 58.5kg | 5.30 | 0-59.53 | 800m: 7th 400m: 7th | Raced wide with cover for the majority of the event. Disappointed for a run near the 250m after becoming awkwardly placed at heels. | $13 | ||

| 2 | 54.0kg | 9.20 | 1-00.19 | 800m: 3rd 400m: 3rd | When asked to comment Rdr could offer no explanation for the disappointing performance. A post-race vet exam revealed a minor laceration to the off-hind leg. | $11 | ||
