Group 2 Holly Mulroy Congleton CC 7 Points
Group 3 Oliver Pennell Lyme RC 8 Points
The remaining youth riders competed well across their 4 races with Aleshia Mellor, Eastlands Velo taking the opening 2 1/2 lap handicap. Joe Swinnerton, Lyme RC won the devil, scratch and was a member of the winning Team Sprint Team.
