Race Director: Patrick McNamara Help needed on Saturday: Pat will need at least one helper at the finish to manage the chute and one to assist with scoring. Recent Events: Tidbinbilla Graded Scratch. Lindy Hou (with Ashley Carruthers) was the tandem victor ahead of Brandie O'Connor (with Kerry Knowler). But ladies were also highly competitive in other grades. Mayumi Delbridge won G grade ahead of the ever-consistent Jing Huang in third place; Barbara Bayliss was 3rd in F grade ahead of Liz Lowe scoring points in fifth place; Angela Wren scored an excellent third in E, while Jan Koehler again proved her fitness to place fourth behind some race-hardened gents in D grade. Elsewhere, Christophe Barberet had the honour of leading the rest home in pursuit of Ian Downing in A grade; Peter Klein escaped from Robert Langridge, Jason Quayle and Nick Boylan in B; Robert Britten bettered Bryan Holloway's efforts in C; Kim Malcolm beat Terry Smith to the line in E; and Ray Hooper had to contend with a revitalized Malcolm Tew to win F grade's race. Many thanks to Race director Owain Tilley and his five helpers for making this event safe and enjoyable.
