Daniel McCanney won the final two rounds in Ramsey MCC’s Sprint/Hare & Hounds enduro series at West Kimmeragh on Sunday.

Having been joint winner in the pre-TT sprint event at the same venue two weeks earlier, the former World Enduro Championship regular was soon in control at the head of proceedings on his 450 KTM.

He briefly pulled up midway through race two as he feared there was an issue with the bike’s rear disc brake pads, but after checking it he found a stone in the chain block rubbing on the sprocket. He was soon on his way again, managing to complete one lap more than in the first one-hour race.

Former TT rider Gavin Hunt was runner-up in both on his KTM, with British Enduro Championship expert class rider Ashley Kelly third on his recently acquired 250 Triumph.

Stan Cubbon won clubman on his new 200cc Beta, pushed hard by young motocrossers Harry Beattie, Joe Cannan, Louis Piggin and Carl Wynne-Smythe.

Sportsman class riders Alfie Phillips and Phil Gunnell both rode consistently throughout, sharing a win apiece.

Abe Cain scored a double success in the two youth races on his Honda, followed home in the first half-hour race by Jason Keig, who swapped places with George Watterson in race two.
