Moffett stretches the lead on SS5

Firstly our guess that James Stafford may have got to 2nd on SS4 was right but he has dropped to 3rd after SS5 where he was 3.6″ slower than Enda O’Brien, who in turn has got into 2nd by a margin of 2.1″, still a great performance by the top seed. Meirion Evans is in 4th but is within the grasp of Daniel Cronin, who was actually quicker than him on the penultimate stage, so watch this battle on SS6. Craig Breen seems to be settled in 6th, David Kelly in 7th is followed by Ed O’Callaghan, Steve Wood and Gary Kiernan looking likely to keep their positions to the end. Richard Moore looks like he will finish outside the top ten in 11th, too much time to make up on Kiernan. Richard Cleary is doing well in 15th which will see him as 3rd fastest local crew. The rest of the battles among the local crews is really hotting up for the last stage with Leon Galvin doing as we expected in moving a bit clear of Conor Moore but with 10″ gap ahead of him to James Bradley in the local battle to make up, he’ll probably settle for his day on the stages.
