All five ponies stepped away safely with PJ out in front from Razzle Dazzle, Swamp Fire and followed by the two back markers Jessiefoss and Mr Mysterious.

PJ still had a handy lead coming into to the straight; both Swamp Fire and Razzle Dazzle were trotting nicely in second and third, Mr Mysterious with Jessiefoss both made their run down the outside, half way down the running Mr Mysterious took over the lead and went on to score by 10 metres from Jessiefoss and tiny PJ held on for third.

Born To Be Wild stepped away nicely from So What, Little Kizz, Cowboy Road, Chocolate Thunder, Chilli Knight and Summer Surprise.

Coming around the bend So What raced up on the outside of Born To Be Wild and went on by, followed by Little Kizz, Cowboy Road was making his move around the outside and the back markers were coming into the race nicely.

Heading into the straight So What who was trotting to perfection was given more rein and she slipped away, Little Kizz and Cowboy Road were battling for second. So What who put it all together won by 15 metres, Little Kizz just got second from Cowboy Road in third.

With another field of five ponies facing the starter. Midnight Star and Spike It Up stepped away nicely together, followed by Ben Ten, Crackerjack and Jimmy Cricket.

Around the 450 metre mark Spike it Up took over the lead from Midnight Star, Ben Ten was running on with both Crackerjack and Jimmy Cricket making up plenty of ground from their handicaps. Spike It Up lead until half way up the straight where Ben Ten raced up on the outside and went on to score from Jimmy Cricket in second who flashed home and back in third was Spike It Up.

Ben Ten and Jason Kittel crossing the line first.

The final race of the night went over the longer distance of 800 metres. When the flag went down all ponies stepped away with Lapanacaton being the leader from Aussie, Way To Go, Wynkie Sweet Fairytales and Mr Mischief.

Going down the back the order didn’t change much until the home straight where Lapanacaton who thrived on the long distance kicked away, from Way To Go who was getting up along the rails from Aussie. Lapanacaton scored by 10 metres from Way To Go in second, Aussie came third, Mr Mischief and Wynkie Sweet Fairytales both finished on their backs.
