Nothing separated the A Grade riders until Robbie Dorsett broke away at Old South Road and crossed the line for a second win over Cameron Roberts and Jason McLaughlin.
Jason Pattison and Jason Cook applied the pressure on the climb out of the turnaround and steadily increases their advantage over the chasing peloton.
In a two up sprint to the finish Cook edged in front and held on for a comfortable victory. Pattison was second and Gavin Moroney third.
C Grade maintained a steady pace line up the Cullerin Range until Nadine Moroney put in an attack to split the field.
Strong riding by Chris Berry on the return leg stretched out the leaders and by Poplar Straight, Moroney, Berry and Alex Wallace had opened up a handy lead.
Berry opened up the lead out sprint at Old South Road but it was Wallace waiting patiently in his slipstream who timed his final sprint to perfection and winning by half a bike length.
In D Grade Wayne Skillman had a comfortable win over Bernie Budgen and Peter Jackson.
Next week racing is back at Breadalbane for the TTH Industries Graded Scratch Races. Sign on by 6.00pm and racing at 6.30pm. New riders and visitors welcome.
