Five riders scrapped for the win right down to the last lap of the 21-lap race, but victory eventually went to former champion Andrew Pitt (HANNspree Ten Kate Honda). The 32 year-old Australian kept a cool head in the final laps to take his first points of the year ahead of the HANNspree Stiggy Motors pairing of Joshua Brookes and Robbin Harms. Fabien Foret (Yamaha World Supersport) caught up with the leading group to lead with two laps remaining, but finished fourth, Jonathan Rea (Honda) and Garry McCoy (Triumph) had good races to finish fifth and sixth, while round 1 winner Broc Parkes (Yamaha) crashed out.
