The top 5 in the North Midland section were the top 5 in this meeting and are booking their places in the semi-finals. Back on top was Dmitrij O’Shea. He hadn’t won a round since his early season hat-trick but 14 points were enough to take this meeting. A second place behind Craig Leonard in his final heat gave Brian Broadbank a chance to equal his score but he could only also finish second in his last ride to Richie Sampson. Sampson and Leonard both finished on 11 points but were beaten to third spot in a run-off by John Honey who has had a very strong first season. Surprise of the meeting was Damon Duffy who had his best round so far to score 10 points. Whether he can make a late run for the semis remains to be seen. Lee Mcauliffe and Dave Hemus both rode well for 9 points and will take semi-final places if they keep scoring solidly. Alex Golden’s 8 points puts him in 32nd place overall just behind Ralph Whelan who scored a slightly disappointing 6 points.
