250 Class

First Moto – Ty Masterpool took the lead from Shane McElrath just after McElrath got the holeshot. Dylan Ferrandis spent most of the first half of the race chasing Jeremy Martin just inside the top ten. Ferrandis made an inside move on Jeremy Martin with about 15 minutes left and the two riders collided, and both went down, but Martin needed a little more time to get going again and fell back to 11th place.
Masterpool crashed with 10 minutes left and surrendered the lead to RJ Hampshire.
With two laps to go, Hampshire bobbled and gave up the lead to McElrath with Jett Lawrence close behind in third.

Second Moto – Masterpool got another holeshot with Jeremy Martin in second. Ferrandis was buried in about 15th place. Masterpool held the lead for about ten minutes before making a mistake in a corner and letting Jeremy Martin by for the lead. Martin pulled away once he got the lead.
Ferrandis slowly worked his way through the pack and on the last lap battled with Hampshire for second before taking the spot a few turns from the finish.

450 Class

First Moto – Adam Cianciarulo got the early lead and quickly extended his lead, leaving Zach Osborne, Eli Tomac and Marvin Musquin battling for second place. After eating Osborne’s roost for the entire race, Tomac was finally able to sneak past him for second place with about three minutes left. Tomac quickly reeled in Cianciarulo and stayed close but was never close enough to attempt a pass for the lead.

Second Moto – Cianciarulo got another holeshot and again quickly separated himself from Osborne and Joey Savatgy. Tomac, Justin Barcia and Chase Sexton were all involved in first lap crashes.
Cianciarulo seemed to be holding a comfortable three second lead over Osborne for most of the race until about 20 minutes in he crashed as he was trying to pass a lapped rider and let Osborne and Blake Baggett get past him.
Baggett stayed close to Osborne and five minutes later stole the lead from Osborne and pulled away for the win.
