Next to go was seventh place qualifier Iain, comfortably beaten by Pete (16). Bill survived unscathed against Leo, but then Noah (13) beat Jerome (10) in a classic midfield battle - the margin 0.018 seconds...

   

Clive had no problems against Andy Player, but Al (9) was pipped to the post by Dave (14)...
