Paco Boy was sold to Highclere Stud and Waikato Stud after his fourth-placed finish in Kentucky, and his previous owners believed that he would not race again. However, his new owners decided to run him one last time in the Group 1 Hong Kong Mile at Sha Tin where, despite being sent off the 2/1 favourite, he ran very poorly and finished last in a field of thirteen. His connections suggested that the long season and hard races had caught up with him and he was retired to stud.
