But the race was red flagged for a faller and a shortened four lap race followed. Again he had a quick start and this time was up to 14th overall and second in his class. With just four laps to race there was little time to make any headway and he completed the race in second place - 11th overall.

In race two on Sunday morning Jenkins started from the head of row four and immediately slotted into second place in his class. He had some battles for position with some of the newcomer 600 class riders and crossed the finish line in second place in the Pre Injection class and 12th overall.
