Michael Laverty claimed his third consecutive Sunflower Trophy victory when he dominated the big event in Saturday's meeting at Bishopscourt. The Toomebridge man, on a Monstermob Ducati, won the big race from team-mate John McGuinness and Marty Nutt.
Laverty also won both Superbike races with Tom Sykes second in both and Nutt and McGuinness taking thirds.
Sykes took wins in both 600cc races while Paul Robinson did the double in the 125cc class.
Laverty also set a new lap record of 94.8 miles an hour in the Trophy event.
Bruce Anstey, Adrian Coates and Hilton Hincks occupied fourth, fifth and sixth positions in the big race.
Laverty will get to keep the Sunflower Trophy as a result of his three consecutive wins.
Scottish rider Brian Morrison got to keep the previous Sunflower Trophy when he achieved the feat in the 1980s.
