Twenty-nine riders took part in the penultimate time trial on the Lavenham course with the race for the points trophy almost over.
Long-term leader Darren Rule, finishing in 25.25 for 12th, increased his total to 996 points, from second place Charles Pratt (26.41), who scored 175pts on the night.
Kirsty White broke the 30-minute barrier with 29.58, improving by 5.29.
The race was won by Shotbolt (22.35) from Simon Daw (23.18) and James Rush was third in 23.37.
