Class B Intermediate
This class competes over a selection of both the championship and clubmen’s hazards chosen by the Clerks of Course. Of the three championship classes, this was the only one dominated by one ‘crew’ as the 2017 Clubmen class runner-ups Nigel and Gracie-Mae Scott moved up a class and took the wins at eight of the eleven rounds, putting the title way out of reach of the other contestants in this category. Second place in the series went to Tony Jones and Jamie Howe, but as they missed the two early rounds in the Isle of Man, they effectively were never going to win the series.
Other round winners were David Tuck and Jon Newman at rounds seven and eight, and with a single victory, finishing in sixth position overall, were Damian Owen and Gaz Temple at round three.
Riding on a non-championship points-scoring basis Jack Corlett and Beth Thomas, the 2018 Class C Clubmen championship winners, set out their stall for 2019 with a win at the final round.
