Another good evenings racing at the Welwyn Track League (Gosling Stadium) with the Senior A and Youth A groups being particularly competitive.
![]() |
Prestige riders John Mc Clelland and Kristian Woolf dominated the senior A category battling it out with the local Welwyn Riders and Mike Broadwith for the minor places.
The final 10 mile saw a group of seven riders get away by half distance and the high pace reduced the numbers down to five in the last few laps. At the end McClelland took line honours from Woolf and Hastings and Broadwith with Henry Farrell out of the points in fifth place.
In the Senior B group Anthony Morris won the opening 10 lap scratch while Joe Gorman (Stevenage) made a last lap dash to take the Odds and Evens 10 lap Block Pursuit. Sam Dossett and Joe Gorman tied on points for the 10 lap points – the decision going down to the final lap.
The 15 strong youth A section saw flat out racing in all four events – Jack Plumley was pushed hard by Archie Wishart and Youth B rider Charles Page who was promoted up into the senior group but put in some strong finishes to take two well earned second places
Cal Jolly dominated the youth BC group taking all four races in four different disciplines
The wide age band in the CDE group saw Christian Manzi take the opening scratch race but the next three handicap races went to front runners as the scratch riders spent too much time watching each other instead of chasing the limit riders. A lesson to be learnt in the next few weeks ?
