Tonight marked the start of the BRC club season with Round 1 of the Scratch League on the Sheddings Circuit. The race got off to a very quick start with Ed Kearney (Phoenix), Tommy Wilson (BRC) and Peter Smyth (U/a) breaking away early in the first lap. The trio built a lead of around 30 seconds by the end of lap one, however Kearney upped the pace leading up to Church Entry and shed Smyth from the attacking group. As the race forked off to Buckna, the very strong Kearney then made his move and edged away from Wilson. He built up a laed of almost 40 seconds as Smyth and Wilson were swallowed up by the chasing bunch.
