The gates open and they are off!
After the first read the field is closely bunched. Humour from Aristo 22, Paul 16, Rafflesthegt 2 make a colourful showing in the middle of the pack. Buddy 12 is taking his time and is relocated on the outside. Tyke 15 and Raffllesthegt 6 are hung over in the middle inside. The rest of the field have settled in and look quite comfortable.
After the second read the anagrammers are making a strong showing.. Paul 13, Paul 10, Wil 7, Jono 5, Amej 4, Fj 24, Rafflesthegt 18 and Jono 19 all looking strong with perhaps Amej 4 edging to the front. Geting 20 had a strong start and is included with the front runners.
After the third read and turning the corner the field is beginning to stretch out with Jono 19, Geting 20 Rafflesthegt 18 and Amej 4 all looking to throw everything they have on the back straight.
On the final reading we have a great finish. Geting 20 noses out Jono 19 with Rafflesthegt 18 in third place and Amej 4 in fourth after a photo finish.
Well done Geting and congratulations to all runners.
