UTAR JET then ran very wide over extra ground on the bend and she finished well back. KARAKA ROYALE was handy to the first corner but was checked and lost ground. SISTER VIRTUE who was following KARAKA ROYALE appeared to make contact with the rail on the first corner and she went back to the rear and finished in last place. SISTER VIRTUE was examinned by the Vet as a precaution and cleared of injury.
Race 2	Gary Ross Decorator - C0 - 520	KEITHYGEE was slow to begin and lost three lengths. KEITHY GEE and SURF GEM bumped together on the first bend and KEITHY GEE then moved out entering the back straight and made contact with BOTANY ROSE who fell. KEITHY GEE and SURF GEM again made contact when going into the last bend and racing at the rear and both lost further ground and they finished well back. BOTANY ROSE was examined by the Vet and euthanased due to a fractured foreleg.
Race 3	Wanganui Farm Supplies - C0 - 305	TUI CAN DO and MILLIE SWANSON collided on jumping from the boxes and again a few strides further on and TUI CAN DO lost ground. TUI CAN DO checked off the heels of MILLIE SWANSON on the bend and moved out and made contact with GINGER BISCUIT and they ran very wide into the straight and finished in the last two places.
Race 4	Guthrie Bowron, Wanganui - C0f - 520	KOP ROAR was a little slow to begin and then checked over the heels of GREAT AUNTY MIN losing further ground. SHADES and GREAT AUNTY MIN were awkwardly placed between runners on the first corner and both lost ground. KOP ROAR galloped on the heels of THRILLING TAMMY on the first bend and both dogs lost ground with THRILLING TAMMY being the most affected and she went back to last and stayed in that position to the finish.
Race 5	GEON, Wellington - C1 - 520	HOBSON'S LAW ran in from the start and checked OKAY'S VERA DEE and HAMISH BAXTER and all three dogs lost a little ground. OKAY'S VERA DEE and HAMISH BAXTER recovered to finish in 2nd and 4th places but HOBSON'S LAW stayed back and finished in last place.

Race 7	Morrie Gibbons Signs - C1q - 305 Heat 1	OPTICAL MAN was a little slow to begin but recovered well to be in 2nd place by the first corner and he maintained that position to the finish without threatening the winner.

Race 8	Mickey's Super Liquor - C1 - 520	JAYDEN'S COURAGE was away well and in 2nd place on the first corner but checked over the heels of SHEZA RATBAG, ran very wide over extra ground on the bend and went back to last and finished in that position. MUSTARD KEEN checked off the back of SHEZA RATBAG on the last bend and lost ground which possibly cost her the chance of a closer placing than 4th.
Race 9	Broad Roofing Services - C1q - 305 Heat 2	BREAKING DREAMS who was having her first start on the track, raced very wide over extra ground on the bend and into the straight and she finished in last place.
