The weather was fine and bright but with a nagging east wind for the second event of the Ford CC Dunton Series. The EFGH group were given a half lap start and were able to stay away until the first prime which was taken by Chris Dunn. The prime for the ABCD’s was won by Paul Turner. The junction was made after a further two laps and immediately Paul Hart broke away. He soon had about 20 secs from the bunch who couldn’t mount a consistent chase. Within 4 laps Paul Hart had increased his lead to 1 min and he took the third prime. The bunch now seemed resigned to the fact that they weren’t going to catch him. At 3 laps to go Hart had over 1-30sec. At the bell, Matt Steel and Aaron Green escaped from the bunch with Matt Holmes soon joining them. At the line Paul Hart had over 2mins before Green took second place from Steel. Martin Meades was the first EFGH rider.

After 2 events Paul Hart leads Cat A with max points; Matt Holmes leads Matt Steel by one point; in Cat C Murat Ozdenya has a 2 point lead over Paul Turton; Antonius Wubben and Paul Turner share the lead in Cat D; in Cat D Martin Meades has a 2 point lead over Stephen Piper; Paul Dunn and Chris Bird have a win each in Cat F; and Ruth Stapleton leads the Women’s Category.

The Ron Day Memorial MK Bowl races – Race 3 – 16th May 2023 (Sponsored by Church Lane Creative).

A sunny dry night and plenty of helpers meant we could run the race out of the top gates from the start, starting and finishing on the green (my favourite course ).

Thank you so much to all the helpers tonight, I really appreciate you all.

Some fast racing tonight with the Gavin Howell train soon splitting to just Gavin and Simon Moss, holding a 2 man break for the majority of the race with Gavin riding away from Simon at the end to take the win. A later attack saw Bobby McGlue and Kieron Lewis leaving the main bunch finishing 3rd and 4th with Bobby taking the sprint. Michael Darcy attacked on the last lap to finish just ahead of the bunch, followed by Sean Dines with Paul Bird winning the bunch sprint.

The EFGH race was split into two bunches part way through with Mim Taylor riding really strong in the front group taking 1st lady, the bunch sprint was won by James Stewart, followed by Steve James who has brilliant form in his first year as an E cat.

A great nights racing, well done to all our winners and everyone who rode.

I need helpers every week. Please let me know if you are able to help or can bring a helper with you if you want to race (over 16 yrs). Thank you.
