Training problems kept Scorpion off the racecourse before he returned in the Listed Finale Stakes at the Curragh on 8 October. He started favourite but was beaten a length by the British-trained five-year-old Frank Sonata. In his two remaining races Scorpion competed in major international races but made little impact. He finished fifth behind Red Rocks in the Breeders' Cup Turf at Churchill Downs in November and seventh behind Collier Hill in the Hong Kong Vase at Sha Tin Racecourse in December.
