Thirty five runners took the line in the 4.7 mile handicap race staged at Pembroke over the clubs "Full Course" and despite finishing some way behind De La Mare Greening now holds a commanding position at the head of the league table with a sixteen point lead over Le Noury.
Steve Dawes showed that after struggling through the latter part of the track season he is now returning to his best form. In windy conditions Dawes clocked an actual time of 27 minutes 36 seconds which took him from the penultimate starting position, on a 16 minute handicap, up to 8th place.
