The 2/3 race started quickly with James HD going away in an early move that included Calum Croft – one of the highest ranked 2nd cats in the UK. James did well to hang on with junior gearing for 3 laps, but ultimately was dropped and went back to the peloton. This forced Charles, Tristram and George to chace the move. Ultimately the big effort broke the peloton up and the race was in bits. With Ten minutes to go Charles Rees attacked and was joined by James Curison – the pair stayed away putting 30 secs into the small 7 rider peloton. In the sprint out of the final corner Curison took the honours with Rees 2nd. Smith took 7th in the bunch gallop – a sign of his continuing good form.
