YEOMAN May did not contest the series opener because of his injury and the winner at round one, Rotorua’s Ethan Harris (Yamaha YZ250X) was a no-show at round two, which explains why May and Harris share only sixth spot in the series standings. Meanwhile, in the shorter junior race held earlier that morning, Taupo’s Wil Yeoman took his Yamaha YZ125 to make it two win from two starts in the series, finishing two minutes ahead of Oparau’s Hunter Scott (KTM 85SX). Another Yamaha YZ125 rider, Whangaparaoa’s Daniel Refoy, had finished runner-up to Yeoman at round one, but he managed only sixth at round two. However, Refoy is still a contender, ranked third in the overall series standings after two rounds, behind Yeoman and Scott. > KIWI RIDER 73
