The final Wales and Border Harness Racing meeting of the season was held to raise funds for Leominster Community Hospital.
The charity race at Presteigne marked the end of the season, with a day of celebration, evaluation, and planning for the future.
The hospital was chosen as this year's beneficiary as it is where one of the drivers, who was injured earlier in the season, is currently recovering.
A key highlight of the day was the Novice Race, won by Manhattan Gangster, driven by Morgan Wolfe for the Munro stable from Bridgend.
The horse completed the race in two minutes and 37.2 seconds.
Sonny Camden, from Stourbridge, took second place, while Begwyns Trust, from Painscastle, came third.
A retiring horse named Matteuceous, driven by trainer Dai Arrowsmith for Tracey Gale from Gorslas, enjoyed a final run, ahead of Mahogany Frankie from Bridgend.
Afanbellesprincess, another veteran, finished third.
Glenfield Thomas, driven by Mathew Tromans for owner Gary Billington from Leicester, won the Grade B race.
In second place was Carrie on Fred from Llandrindod, while Full Closure from Llanddewi came third.
In the Grade A race, Finn Bevan partnered Fold Megastar to victory for the Perks family from Presteigne.
Mathew Tromans from Newcastle Emlyn took second place, and Fold Fearless, another entry from the Perks stable, finished third.
The Baby Novice race saw Isolation claim victory, driven by Steve Williams for Elizabeth Collingwood from Huntington.
Money Talks from Newent took second place, while Landafew from Nantmel finished third.
In the fun part of the day, the Junior race was won by Jacob Bird on Fold Megastar.

The reverse race, where horses raced anti-clockwise, was won by Manhattan Gangster with Morgan Wolfe.
Rhyds Louie took second place, while Red Cash from Newbridge finished third.

The final race of the season, the non-drivers race, was won by ex-driver/jockey Glyn Slade Jones aboard Evenwood Itchyfeet, owned and trained by Mills from Llanddewi.
