“Race one went well as I had a good start and some good pace,” he said.

“I had a small battle with fifth but managed to keep fourth until the end, doing a time of 1:41.6.

“Race two on the Sunday morning was going well until a few riders went down two and a half laps in on some sort of track contamination.

“It was deemed not safe to continue, so the race was postponed.

“In race three I finished fourth with a time of 1:40.6.

“This was some good progress from the previous races, having a good start and running second for a bit until I made a mistake going down the gearbox and third and fourth passed me and I followed them home.

“With race four only being a five lap race, as it was continued from the start of the day , I knew I had to be on pace as fast as I could.

“Not having the best of starts I was in fifth, gaining on third and fourth.

“I managed to pass fourth with a bit of battling and managed to keep my position and set a new personal best of a 1:39.8 which I was super pleased about.

“Overall I’m extremely happy with my results and to say I was racing BSB lads I don’t think I did too bad.”
