Anstey & McGuinness earn TT wins

Bruce Anstey and John McGuinness took the victories in Monday's races at the Isle of Man TT.

Anstey edged out Cameron Donald by 0.77 seconds in Supersport Race One for his ninth TT win with William Dunlop taking his first Isle of Man podium finish.

Michael Dunlop led by 21 seconds after lap two before retiring.

McGuinness clinched his 19th TT win as he finished 7.8 seconds ahead of Michael Dunlop in the Superstock race with Ryan Farquhar in third.

Padgett's Honda rider McGuinness led Farquhar by 0.17 seconds after lap one, by four seconds after lap two and by 12 seconds after the third lap as he went on to clinch his first TT Superstock victory.

A final lap of 129.253mph, the fastest of the race, saw Dunlop move up to take second with Farquhar five seconds adrift of his fellow countryman.

Supersport winner Anstey, Guy Martin and James Hillier made up the top six.

In the earlier Supersport race, Michael Dunlop led by 10 seconds after lap one and by 21 seconds after lap two but retired at Ballig Bridge on his third circuit after setting the fastest lap of the race at 126.95mph.

Gary Johnson led after lap three but ran out of fuel in the closing stages which enabled William Dunlop to take his first-ever TT podium finish.

The 26-year-old Wilson Craig Honda trailed second-placed finisher Donald by 14 seconds at the chequered flag.
