In the MXD category, Rykers‰Ûª KTM Factory Support teammate Cooper Pozniak brought home second in the Under-19 Championship.
The KTM Newcastle-backed rider from Woodrising finished second in both motos, trailing Husqvarna‰Ûªs Connor Tierney on overall points, and leading home Blake Parker, who was third.
"In the first one I had a really good ride; I got the holeshot and was leading for the first half, and then Connor Tierney got me up the inside and I stayed with him for the whole rest of the race," Pozniak explained.
"That was good since he was one of the front runners in the Under 19 Nationals last year. In the second one I just stayed with Connor for a bit and by the end of it I felt really good. I'm fit has, so it's good to finally do some 20 minute motos in a race.
"I've only really been on my race bike for about a week now, but we used the week wisely and done a lot of testing, while the two more days this week just getting the suspension fully sorted. The KTM four-stroke‰Ûªs got a lot of power, so it‰Ûªs awesome," the 17-year-old concluded.
Coastal KTM rider John Bova added another title to the orange tally when he won the 200-250cc 13-U15 class from Hayden Matterson and Joshua Whitehead.
