All other races were moved to timings in place for the 'next scheduled' race start, with the last race commencing at 6.30pm. Dark Sensation justified favouritism after an early dispute for the lead with Jumbo Flash. Tartare Sauce finished strongly to feature in a dead heat with Jumbo Flash for second. Astro Edition and Spooky Fella flared wide during the first bend. Heza Scallywag charged across from the outside draw after the jump, impeding the inner dogs, with Tartare Sauce, Astro Edition, and Spooky Fella being particularly affected. |
| Race 4 | ROYAL WOLF CONTAINERS SPRINT - HEAT 2 - C1q - 318 Heat 1 | Opening Time and Sambuca Pete came together in shoulder to shoulder contact after the jump, with Golden Lobo flaring wide to avoid them.

| Race 14 | MANUKAU RESTRICTED FINAL - R/Af - 527 | Race clear. |
| Race 15 | RADIO PACIFIC STAKES - C4/5 - 527 | The favourite Lazy Alex was the initial leader, holding until exiting the bend into the home straight where Coruba Storm challenged and looked likely until Den Of Fire surged late and took the win.
