In The Supersport class, all three Australian racers got the weekend off to a great start, with Glenn Richards qualifying second, Billy McConnell fourth and Jason O'Halloran sixth.
It was a mixed result for the Smiths Racing, Triumph team-mates of Richards and McConnell in race one, with Richards failing to finish, while McConnell raced to a fourth place finish, finishing two spots ahead of Samsung Honda's Jason O'Halloran in sixth.
McConnell repeated his performance in race two, once again finishing in fourth place, one spot ahead of Richards in fifth. O'Halloran finished in 7th though only 1.3 seconds behind the race winner.
After two rounds of racing, McConnell leads the way for the Australian contingent, sitting in 3rd place in the championship on 66 points, just 11 points behind championship leader Alastair Seeley.
Richards despite his DNF, sits in 7th position on 33 points, while O'Halloran is two positions further back in 9th with 25 points to his name.
