Royal London 360 Youth League
Tuesday, July 14, Isle of Man
Thanks to Dot Tilbury
A torrential downpour halfway through the ten race programme failed to dampen the enthusiasm of the 306 youngsters who competed in round 13 of Team Royal London 360 Isle of Man's youth league last Tuesday night (July 14th).
Enjoying the best of the conditions, Edward Teare outsprinted leading girl Maddie Butterworth to record his first win of the season in the novices class. Chloe Comaish and Daniel Kirk trailed in on their own for third and fourth respectively, with Francesca Avery edging out Harvey Coole for fifth. Chloe Dillon, Callum Dunn and Calvin Russell-Dunn stayed clear of the chasing pack to fill the next three places, while Sam Cunningham took the bunch gallop to round off the top ten.
Zac Walker won a close tussle with Dillon Dowson to pick up maximum points for the eleventh time in the born 2004 & later category. Nathan Slack beat Isaac Kirk to the line for the final podium position and Joshua Dudley led twin brother Cameron in for fifth place. James Devereau was a safe seventh and Ben Boyle edged out Mairi Harrison (1st girl), Mia Worthington, Andrew Tobin, Sophie Bolton, Harry Kneen, William Cawte and Lucy Worthington in the dash for eighth. Callum Crellin led the next wave of chasers in for 16th spot.
Jake Wilson fought off a strong challenge from Jonty Bregazzi to notch up his maiden victory in the born 2003 event. Matthew Black claimed third after riding away from Madison Nicol (1st girl) and Darcy Cain, who were having their own private battle for the girls' honours. Oliver Williams dropped Jack Christian and Haydn Waddington on the last lap to grab sixth, while the fast finishing Paris Etchells overtook Matthew O'Neill, Tom Brennan, Ryan Quirk and Seth Coole on the final run in to snatch a well deserved ninth.
In the born 2002 age group Aaron Lund scored his second win in as many weeks, ousting round eleven winner James Harrison in the final lunge for the line. Fin Samson squeezed out Wilfy Kermode and Sam Corlett in the fight for third, with Liam Crook finishing a very good sixth in only his second appearance in the league. Joshua Mills, Jamie McCann, Alastair Flint and Ben Haworth completed the top ten and eleventh placed Caitlin Christian took the girls' prize one place in front of main rival Charlie Moss.
Max Walker attacked the field on the opening lap of the born 2001 race and was never caught. Adam Scarffe was too strong for Tyler Cain, Jake Vance and Juan Kneen in the tussle for the runners-up spot and a rejuvenated Emma Draper (6th) finished strongly to pip Amelia Sharpe and Chloe Crellin for the girls' prize.Cullen Gell was a lonely ninth and Thomas Chatel managed to fend off a late charge from Charlie Sigley and Rory Donegan to secure tenth place.
By the time the born 2000 riders lined up for the start of their race the heavens had opened and the rain was bouncing off the track. Undeterred by the very wet weather, Tom Murray splashed his way round to his second victory of the year. Nine-time winner and overall leader Luke Murray settled for second ahead of Thomas Bostock, Sam Batey, Adam Kelly and Ben Christian. Ninth placed Ciara Sowerby beat Olivia Sharpe for the girls' honours.
In the born 1999 class Marcus Simpson made the most of the damp conditions to add another win to his tally and keep his overall aspirations alive. Conor Davies, Marcus' chief opposition for the 2009 title, was a safe second followed by Liam McCann, Joseph Glover and first girl Eleanor Davies.
With the rain still pouring down, Jamie Dudley led the field home for his eighth successive win in the 1998-96 grouping. Ashley Faragher held off Laura Kinley for second and Matthew Draper kept Tamara Preskey at bay for fourth. Newcomer Brandon Cain did well to finish eighth in the not very pleasant conditions.
Although the precipitation had eased off considerably for the racing bike events, the track was still very wet. Celebrating in Mark Cavendish style, Owen Dudley got the verdict over Matthew Draper and Joseph Haddock in the sprint at the end of the under 12 race. Nathan Draper and Michael Moss had great rides to gain fourth and fifth places respectively, their best results to date, with Tamara Preskey (1st girl) getting the better of Marcus Simpson for seventh spot.
Thomas Mazzone took the chequered flag ahead of breakaway partner Alex Haddock to win the shortened under 16 twelve lapper. Jake Kelly was the best under 14 rider in third place and Nicholas Corlett and Jamie Dudley were rewarded for their hard work during the race with fourth and fifth. George Doyle made the most significant break of the night but overshot the bottom corner and had to take to the grass, using all his bike handling skills to stay upright. He recovered well and fought his way back up to sixth. Eleanor Stokoe was the first girl home in ninth place.
