Astley & Tyldesley staged Round 1 of the A&T Go-Ride Grand Prix series at Gin Pit on Tuesday evening. With nine riders, all from A&T, participating, the riders were split into two groups - Novices and Youths. The early heats consisted of scratch races, with handicapping introduced for the later heats, in both groups. 6 years old Alexander Lawless won the first two scratch races and picked up enough points later on, riding off the biggest handicap, to take the overall win in the Novice category. 4 years old Lillie Field made the most of a generous handicap to win the last two races and move up into 2nd place overall. A&T Go-Ride Grand Prix Round 1 - Novice results: Alexander Lawless 15, Lillie Field 13, Jasmine Lawless 11, Dylan Field 11. Charlie Burgess won his opening four races in the Youth event, before taking 3rd place out of 5 races in the final handicap race, to clinch the overall win. Duncan Whalley rode steadily throughout to finish overall runner-up. A&T Go-Ride Grand Prix Round 1 - Youth results: Charlie Burgess 19, Duncan Whalley 15, Owen Simcock 13, Oscar Belt 9, Hermoine Whalley 9.
