Wilson Todd extended his series lead with the opening moto win at Murray Bridge in MXD this afternoon, heading home Connor Tierney, who led during the moto and put an a major challenge on board his Husqvarna all the way to the finish line.

Jordan Hill was third ahead of Jayden Rykers and Wayde Carter, who was in the battle for a podium early continues his run of mid-season form. Filling out the top 10 placings were Jesse Madden, Zak Small, Bailey Coxon, Seigah Ward and Lachlan Davis.

Moto two of the MXD class went to Tierney in another strong showing for the round, leading second-placed Rykers and Madden in an improved second moto.

Hill raced to fourth and Carter fifth, while the top 10 was rounded out by Small, Coxon, Ryan Shadbolt, Jonte Reynders and Lachlan Holroyd. Overall it was Tierney from Rykers and Hill.

A crash in the second moto for Todd denied him any chance at the overall, crossing the line in an eventual 27th, but maintaining his red plate by eight points over Tierney.
