John Simpson riding the Trickbits T3 Triumph took the victory in the seventh round of the Metzeler National Superstock 600 Championship, a race that had been held over from the weather and delay ravaged Oulton Park round of BSB back in May.

The starting grid for the race was as it would have been at the Cheshire circuit, putting Josh Day on pole, with Jimmy Hill alongside him on a front row completed by Simpson and Adam Lyon.  Behind them, Anthony Rogers, Matt Bilton, Conor Behan and Luke Stapleford lined up.

Day made the running from the start with Simpson just adrift and Behan, Hill, Danny Buchan and Stapleford chasing them hard but by the third lap, Behan was on the ascendancy, charging into the lead, though not for long before Simpson had nosed in front, making the move stick as he completed his second victory of the season.

Behan and Buchan traded places with Hill running consistently in fourth ahead of Day who was seeing his lead in the title stakes cut to 22 points by Team Green Kawasaki rider Buchan who was maintaining his rich vein of form with second place in a race stopped after eight laps when Matt Bilton tumbled, escaping serious injury in an incident that left his bike in a dangerous position on the circuit.

Behan took third from Hill, Day, Stapleford, Nikki Coates, Jonny Blackshaw, Josh Wainwright and James East who completed the top ten finishers. Liam Lyon, Tom  Young, Grant Whitaker, Rogers and Jonathan Lodge completed the points scorers.
