As expected the division of the fleet into Gold, Silver and Bronze gave much closer racing and increased pressure on the starts, giving rise to recalls in all fleets in both the races sailed.

The overall leader board remains the same, with Croatian Kuzmanic still in front of Scott GBR. However both these two had to battle hard for their placings. For the remaining 4 races they will be closely watching Great Britain's Nick Thompson, who has suddenly found top gear and jumped from 17th to 7th overall, after winning both of the gold fleet races.

With thunderstorms forecast for Day 5 and a further discard to come into the scores after 10 races, the Championship is still open.
