| Race 10 | IMPROVERS HEAT 3 - C1q - 457 Heat 1 | The favourite Terrigal Drive started on terms with the field then raced across to settle behind Justa Toff and Supreme Bet. During the run around the bend, Terrigal Drive checked off the back of Smokin' Time, the favourite's hind legs splaying down onto the track - he was not able to recover in time to place. |

| Race 16 | GOBIS CLUB BONUS 2ND SERIES HEAT 2 - RESq - 457 Heat 1 | Homebush Brian converted an early lead to a decisive win.Here's Freddie claimed the second placing from Milanion right on the line with a strong late surge.
