• 1642 - It's Jamie's....  Allerton pushes underneath Staring... Whoah that was fierce.... Jamie gets the win... Coxhell a great return to form for second place, Giles third to put two Suzukis on the podium.  Dan Stauffer holds onto fourth and Allerton steals fifth from Staring, Johnson seventh, Maxwell eighth, Charlton ninth, Bugden tenth, Holland 11th, Gobert 12th, Fergusson 13th but will be pushed back further due to a jump start penalty...  Jamie wins the meeting and I believe Coxhell will take second place overall for the Sunday round
• 1641 - The gap now 1.48 seconds... Last lap though, it will be too much unless Jamie gets held up by a lapped rider...  A huge battle over fourth unfolding on this last lap with Dan Staffer, Bryan Staring, Glenn Allerton and Shannon Johnson nose to tail for this last three kilometres...
• 1640 - Two laps to go... The gap now... 1.68 seconds... Craig has a sniff but I don't think he will do it....  Allerton and Johnson have closed on Dan Stauffer and Bryan Staring who have been continuing their tussle over fourth place... This could be one exciting final lap...
• 1638 - Three laps to run and the gap now is.....1.972.... So the gap has remained about constant... A 23.0 to both men... Staring still looking to steal fourth place from Dan Stauffer.  Maxwell must have made a mistake as he has lost seventh place to Johnson who has now closed on Allerton to a little....  Jamie just got baulked by a backmarker... Will it affect the gap.... We will know shortly....
• 1637 - Coxhell catching Jamie again now... The gap under two seconds now.... Staring all over Dan Stauffer... Giles looks safe in third though...
• 1636 - Bryan Staring starting to threaten Dan Stauffer now...  Glenn Allerton has been engaged in a fierce tussle with Wayne Maxwell over sixth position
• 1635 - Jamie has the hammer down now, a 22.383 to Coxhell's 22.736, the gap 2.5 seconds.  Craig has 1.5 seconds over Giles though who in turn has 1.4 seconds over Dan Stauffer so at this stage of the game it is looking likely that we will have two Suzuki men on the podium in this one...
• 1633 - Jamie replies this time with a 22.46 to Craig's 22.64 to stretch his buffer back out to 2.22 seconds...
• 1632 - Jamie's reply....    Giles a second behind Coxhell and now with a full second over Dan Stauffer who is being caught by a huge gaggle of riders that includes Staring, Maxwell, Allerton and Johnson, those four covered by only a second...
• 1631 - Anthony Gobert's Kawasaki starting to puff plenty of smoke...... The top 10 covered by only 8 seconds.... Anthony Gobert might get a black flag before his engine really does let go in a big way...
• 1630 - Coxhell has pulled away from Giles now, just how much has he clawed back on Jamie... The gap was 2.584 seconds... Now it is 2.247.... He is reeling him in a little now... There is 9 laps to run...
• 1629 - Coxhell through on Giles again,  Giles come back up the inside but this time allows Craig to have a run... Now let's see what Coxhell can do.... Was Gilesy holding him up?  We are about to find out...
• 1628 - Allerton coming on strong too, just behind Staring, then it is Maxwell who is also running well
• 1627 - Shannon Johnson just ran across the grass and lost a heap of positions... Jamie cracking out 22s,  he leads by 1.8 seconds now, Coxhell still right behind Giles, Dan there also... Bryan Staring not much further back...
• 1626 - Holland was running fifth position but just lost a heap of positions and will be pushed back to nearly tenth...
• 1625 - A 22.864 to Jamie this time.. Leads by 1.37 seconds over Giles, Coxhell trying to get past his teammate.. Dan right on their tail and watching from a safe distance and ready to pounce should they make a mistake or trip each other up....
• 1624 - To add insult to injury Adam Fergusson's pain from running on at turn one has been amplified by a ten second jump start penalty, currently in 13th place behind Anthony Gobert...
• 1623 - Shannon Johnson in seventh position but the fastest man on the track! A 23.549 to the Kawasaki man as he hounds Staring.  Coxhell through on Giles... They swap back again... This has allowed Jamie to get away a little... 22.723 to Jamie. 
• 1622 - Jamie takes the lead into turn one, thought it might all end in tears as Giles did not want to give up that position... He is going to put it on the line in this one...
• 1621 - Jamie all over Giles, Coxhell right up the Yamaha's clacker in a supporting role, Dan in fourth so it is Suzuki-Yamaha-Suzuki-Yamaha-Honda-Honda-Kawasaki
• 1620 - Still Giles from Jamie, Coxhell still ahead of Dan, Holland, Staring, Johnson, Charlton, Allerton, Maxwell, Gobert
• 1619 - Shawn Giles and Jamie Stauffer away well, Shawn with his nose in front when they come out the other side, Coxhell third, Dan Stauffer fourth.  Krusty ran in too deep at turn one and is well down the back of the field...
• 1618 - Getting ready for a Superbike start...
