His Majesty's Plate ()
Carmers won His Majesty's Plate, a Listed race over 2m at Down Royal, on good going at 5/6 favourite. The winner sat close to the front pair from early on, was asked to make his effort 2f out, took the lead 1 1/2f out and stayed on strongly to score by two and a quarter lengths. Layfayette settled just behind the leaders, moved into third at halfway, was ridden 2f out and went into second a furlong from home but could not close the gap, staying on at the same pace. Tennessee Stud finished third.
