The Professional Cross Country Club of Tasmania returns to the hills this week, after a couple of flat runs.
The Raymond Spinks/CRC twelve kilometre handicap is raced over a circuit course from the Somerset Soccer Club. Following a long uphill haul on the Murchison Highway to Village Lane the race continues on country roads before the final stretch along Cardigan Street.
This is a course for those who like it tough and one runner who does is Cobie Walker. He will relish the hills and is in great form with a recent second over similar terrain. He was a good fourth last week in a race that didn’t suit as much as this and is the one to beat
Matthew Rolls looks the likely danger. He has finished third and then sixth in his last two starts and won’t need to improve much to take this out.
Others with strong chances include Lyn Saint-John, Isaac Troughton, Ann Horton and Bryan Tuit who won this event two years ago.
