Morgans Property Advisors track results 26th November 2013

The rain earlier in the day and the heavy threatening sky cast doubt on track cycling going ahead tonight but 24 brave souls plus support staff took the punt that the rain would stay away and racing will proceed. Apart from some light rain at the start of the racing the track remained dry enough for the full race programme to be completed. The two lap team sprints were bookended with the usual short , medium and long scratch and handicap races.

The performance of note for the meeting was that of Carne Groube in the final long lap A grade handicap race. Carne began with the scratch riders, half a lap down from the limit men in the 16 lap race. The lessons of last weeks race had not been wasted on the limit men and they quickly rolled their sleeves up and worked to maintain the half lap advantage. The scratch riders quickly hit and then maintained 95%, but the gap was being maintained. With 10 laps to go both bunches began to show signs of the pressure. After another few laps riders began to drop off and gaps started to appear. The bunches became more vocal as they tried to encourage riders to increase effort.
