2017 Liam Davison Memorial Handicap

The 3rd Liam Davison memorial handicap was run today in conditions more like mid winter, but a great club turnout and event in Liam’s memory. Welcome to several new club members and Liam’s mates from State of Matter, great to have you all along. Fantastic racing behaviour and attitudes saw a safe and well contested race.

Race results

Juniors

A supported ride/race with great work from all. Tom Ferguson, Sofie Sutton, Jake Taylor, Jasper Foller, Lucas Rowe, Hugo Phillips. Well done all.

Handicap

Some very strong middle groups joined together by the half way mark and after reeling in a determined limit group never looked in danger of holding off scratch and chopping block who had come together at a similar stage. So it was a race of two bunches and an exciting finish.

Awesome to see an upcoming MCC Young talent take the win in a sprint finish.

  1. Jaxon King (starting at 13:30)
  2. Dean Phillips (starting at 13:30)
  3. Chris ‘Fatty’ Sinclair (starting at 12:00)

First female: Judith Caball
Fastest time: Alex Holden
