The fillies race had a bit of a French feel about it with the winner Etes Vous Prets, a Godolphin filly who also gave a first winner in Japan to her sire Too Darn Hot, and Cecilie Plage was the third placed.  In between them was the favourite Corazon Beat.

The Kinko Sho was supposed to be a battle between Durazza and Prognosis but in the end Prognosis showed the upper hand winning by 5 lengths with Yoho Lake the third home.
