JUNIOR U/17
INVITATION SPRINT DERBY
Warragul's
CC junior u/17 rider Jack Walk took out
Sunday's Bob Whitford Memorial Wheel at the Latrobe City CC's TRU energy annual
track carnival. Riding from the 200m in 2000m handicap event, Walk got lovely
cart-up from the riders starting some 30-40m behind him, this group kept the
strong group of back markers out of the finale equation by keeping the pace high
and gathering the front markers with less than a lap to race. Just after getting
the bell Dave Shanahan (170m) went for home opening a gap on now grown front
bunch however Shanahan run was coming to an end on entering the home straight as
Chris Henne (230m) moved up on the outside looking a winner when Walk (200m) put
in a powerful finishing sprint to get past Henne and Shanahan who was kicking
back to hold on to take 2nd with Henne 3rd. Lytton Sedley (350m) rode very heady
race by picking the right wheels to follow coming to the last lap to finish on
wheels of the first three to take 4th place. A number of the Whitford family
were on hand to present the winners with trophies and prize money.
The
carnival was another success going towards becoming an open event in very near
future, however the weather did keep a number of riders away with intermitting
showers all day long that saw only 17 of 22 events on the program completed. The
total number of riders Male/Female Senior/U19/u/17 were 21 with 3 under 15
riders.
