First year runner, Jarron Cole, surged away from the trailing bunch of four to record a huge win by 450 metres. Kate Bramley had a similar margin ahead of the next female, Zoe Adams.

Sue Andrews maintained her good form to win the Middlemarkers section and Dan Wright won the Backmarkers division of this race for the second consecutive year.
