Delayed for a short period of time, following a non-race related medical emergency, the seen-lap Radcliffe Butchers Supersport A-race, met and some up to pre-race expectations.

A race long scrap between Davey Todd, Dean Harrison, Michael Dunlop and Jamie Coward thrilled those in attendance, as four of International road racing’s top pilots duked it out for honours.

In the end after seven closely contested laps, it was Milenco by Padgetts Todd who kept his cool to secure victory spoils.

No.1 plate holder Harrison took second, finishing only 0.344 behind Todd, setting on the seventh, final lap, the fastest lap of the race, lapping at 2 minutes 18.516 seconds.

Supersport TT lap record holder Dunlop finished third but only just, finishing 0.013 of a second in front of KTS Racing Powered by Steadplan’s Coward.

Overall only 1.7 seconds separated top four finishers Todd, Harrison, Dunlop, Coward.

PreZ Racing’s Paul Jordan who made an impressive start took fifth whilst P6 was mopped up by Dafabet Racing’s Rob Hodson.

Port Erin’s Joe Yeardsley impressed in taking seventh ahead of Senior Race 1 podium finisher Nathan Harrison.

Wrapping up the first ten finishers from yet another S100 Supersport classic was Welshman Rhys Hardisty and 42 plate holder Richard Charlton.
