On the final day of the AJC carnival, Lonhro lined up for his final race start in his second Queen Elizabeth Stakes-Gr1 (2,000 m). Again, he settled near the rear, but Grand Armee's rider rode a tactically clever race, taking the lead and slowing the pace in the middle part, whilst opening up a large gap between himself and Lonhro. In the straight, the gap was to prove too great for Lonhro, and Grand Armee ran out the winner by six lengths.
