The first Novice heat gave backmarker Miss Jackpot another win for the Langford family from Ammanford with Tommy the Dealer (Bevan Llanddewi) in second and Tyssul Pearl (Barton Clunderwen) third. Hyar Temptation (Thomas Tregroes) another mare trailing twenty yards claimed the second heat of the Novice beating C U Choteau (Thomas Llanbister) into second and first time in this section Ithon Gift (Bird Ludlow) into third.

Forest Surprise belonging to the Miles family from Merthyr took the second race from Dolan Hasty (Parker Huntington) and Finnbarr Messenger (Meaney Merthyr). With their wins both Made in Wales and Forest Surprise now move up into the Novice class.

In the saddle class Ithon Ghost is quickly making a name for himself with jockey Rebecca Hitchcock who helps train him for the Wilson family from Llanfihangel ar arth, in second was Ithon Gypsy (Jones Llanbister) with Greenwood Romeo (Duggan Llangunllo) in third.

The evening concluded with the three finals, the first, the Novice going to the in form Brywins Lucky Charm owned by the Jones family from Brecon and driven by usual pilot Aled Davies from Dihewyd, in second place was the impressive grey, Hyar Temptation (Thomas Tregroes) while Miss Jackpot (Langford Ammanford) was third.

The Grade B Final went to Kickstart owned by the Williams family Brecon and driven by trainer Andrew Hardwick, second was Too Hot Today (Jones Merthyr) with The Bold Jack (Gething Gilwern) in third.
