A most competitive field assembled for the Senior event. Stockport's Terry Norman was the early pace setter, starting off with three wins, with Wednesfield's Garry Pearce and Sheffield's Radek Sieradzki in hot pursuit. Last year's winner, Bury's Remi Burchardt, recorded the three fastest times of the day, but lost his chance when excluded for crossing the inside in heat 6. Pearce's chances went with a gate exclusion in heat 15. The following race saw a nasty incident, in which Stockport's Chris Eaton was match banned for malicious foul riding, after turning right on Coventry's Przemek Binkowski and forcing him into the fence on the back straight. The Pole required extensive treatment to a leg injury before competing in the re-run, and then withdrawing from the meeting due to injury. In the re-run, A & T's Tomasz Szwajorek put himself in contention for a place, by beating Norman.

However, Norman was still leading the field after heat 16, and he secured his record seventh A & T Festival main event victory with a win in heat 17. Late wins to Sheffield's Pawel Kozlowski saw him force a run-off for third place with teammate Sieradzki, whilst Szwajorek won his fourth race in heat 20 to finish overall runner-up. In the run-off for third place, Sieradzki won the toss for start positions, and headed home Kozlowski.
