The 2 year-old Maiden event was won by Princess Tasha from Awesome Banner as Humming Bird and Handsome Drift drifted into the 3rd and 4th places. The winner collected $200,000 and trophy.
The J and K Class event was won by Release the Heat from Angel Eyes with Prince D and Touch Gold rounding out the money. Copping the L Class Open event was Miss Anjalie winning ahead of Touch Down and Touch Gold.

There was no surprise in the L Class non-winners race as Dililah was able to beat Red Weasel, Rosie and Physical Disturbance for the win.
