Hull claimed inside grids for the remainder of the match, as A&T extended their lead to run out comfortable 99-80 winners. For Hull, Jack Lister impressed with five straight wins, before narrowly losing 2nd place to John White in heat 18. Lewis Foxley won four of his six races. Emily Burgess top scored for A&T, with Duncan Whalley losing only to Lister in heat 3, and the rest of the main team all scoring solidly.
