Race 2	October Maiden Series Final - C0f - 375	FORECASTER was a little slow to begin and the collided with DEB BALE and KARLA LEWINSKY on the first corner. FORECASTER and DEB BALE suffered most in the incident and they went back to the rear and stayed there to the finish.
Race 3	YGOT Bonus Scheme Sprint - C1 - 375	THRILLING KITE was a little slow to begin losing two lengths. FRIZZLE FRAZZLE checked of the heels of PREDATOR DRONE on the first corner and lost two lengths.
Race 4	Superior Chunky Dog Rolls Series Heat 1 - C1q - 457 Heat 1	The favourite SHELLY SHELBY was one of the slowest to begin and she then jostled with MCKONE for several strides and they lost a little momentum. SHELLEY SHELBY then had to check off the heels of STORMY RHODE on the first corner, shifted out and raced wide around the bend but finished well in the straight for 3rd placing.
Race 5	Hautapu Veterinary Clinic Sprint - C4 - 375	WINSOME BUSTER was one of the slowest to begin and was in last place on the first corner but ran on well from there to finish in 3rd place. ASCENDING FORCE had to ease off the heels of CAWBOURNE MADZ on the first corner and he went back to the rear and stayed back to finish in 6th place.
Race 6	Superior Chunky Dog Rolls Series Heat 2 - C1q - 457 Heat 2	TWIN RIVERS began awkwardly losing three lengs and she the ran wide on the bend and into the straight covering extra ground and finished at the rear.
Race 7	All Sew Embroidery Sprint - C5 - 375	All clear.
Race 8	Varvatos At Stud Stakes - C3/4 - 457	LADY MARIANNE was checked going to the first corner and went back to the rear. Soon after, LOCHINVAR YASI and FANCY STEP were also checked and lost ground.
Race 9	SL Computing Services Sprint - C2 - 375	GLENADDIS drew box 1 but shifted out going to the first corner and raced wide on the bend covering extra ground and finished in 5th place. DALLAS BEAUTY who was having her first start after a 4 month lay off, had a handy lead entering the home straight but faded over the final few metres and finished in the rear group.
Race 10	Clubhouse Sports Bar Stakes - C5 - 457	JABU, ENOUGH IS ENOUGH and WINSOME FLASH were all a little slow to begin. JABU recovered to finish in 3rd place but ENOUGH IS ENOUGH and WINSOME FLASH were forced to race wide into and around the bend and could not make up the lost ground anf finished in 6th and 7th places. BENNY ROX was suspected to have momentarily turned its head out towards THRILLING TALE on the bend. However, as it could not be conclusively confirmed to the Stewards satisfaction as the video equipment did not give a clear picture of the alleged incident, no further action could be taken.
Race 11	Simplifood Stakes - C1/2 - 457	PEKING TOM and ICHNI NI were slow to begin. PEKING TOM recovered quickly and then shifted in on the first corner and checked KANGO KLINK who went back onto FANCY TOBY with both dogs losing ground which they were not able to make up.
