The track contamination was exacerbated by the rain, with the organisers opting to call the event off after spending time attempting to clean the circuit.
Only two races were held at the Enniskillen Club’s meeting, with Tobermore’s Adam McLean winning the Supertwin event on the J McC Roofing Racing Kawasaki by 4.4s from championship leader Korie McGreevy (McAdoo Kawasaki). Christian Elkin completed the rostrum in third on his RB Engineering Kawasaki.
Barry Davidson won the Classic race on the MBR Honda 500.
