A post race veterinary examination cleared Gone Troppo of injury. All finished. |
| Race 4 | THE MAD BUTCHER DASH - C2 - 318 | Cardinia Kev conceded several lengths when slow at the start - recovered quickly to midfield but no further from there. Bold Playboy was rapidly to the front and although Hot Discovery on the inner disputed the pace early, held on well to the line. |
| Race 5 | MEADOWSET GRAPHICS STAKES - C1 - 527 | Bitter Sammy was the pacemaker from the early stages to just short of the finish line, where he was denied by Our Madge - that dog having trailed third into the home straight before driving strongly between the two leaders to take the race in the last strides. There was early interference when Cawbourne Smile came off the rail at the first bend and came into contact with Claire Eyes, that dog in turn going out onto Ewan Jake, who veered wide and finished back. |

Miss Jade continued to move out and came into the path of Luminoso who had earlier veered wide. |
| Race 7 | BOB VAN MEEUWEN SPRINT - C2 - 318 | Arnies First sped clear after the jump and held a margin in excess of six lengths at the line. Lady Dolly crossed from box 8 heading into the bend, trailing third until she moved out and came into contact with the favourite, Cawbourne Jack, then improving through the field after dwelling slightly at the start. Bahama Bale was handy to the lead early - then when Cawbourne Jack was checked in front of him, went back through the field into the path of Dataman, that dog trailing the field after a slow start. In seeking to avoid Bahama Bale, Dataman had to climb sideways over back his back - Bahma Bale's hind legs splaying on the track at the impact. Cawbourne Jack recovered well for second placing. |
