All but one individual senior cross country title will have been decided as competitors tackle a tough course at Ferry Reach tomorrow in the last of the

Still up for grabs is the women's 20-39 crown with Lynn Patchett and Anna Eatherley tied with two wins each. Whoever comes out on top tomorrow will take the series title.

Other senior groups are already settled as Kavin Smith has won three out of three in the men's 20-39 division, Jean Pierre Sylvester three out of three among the Masters (40-49) and Harry Patchett all four in the men's over 50.

Jane Christie has likewise won four out of four among female Masters and Dorothy Gilchrist three out of three in the over 50s. Teenagers Joel Duffy -- the only competitor in his division to complete a race -- and Patrina Swan with three wins have wrapped up the 16-19 age groups.

However, in the junior division, while Saltus Primary have easily wrapped up the schools' title, there's a battle for second between Saltus `Middle', Port Royal and Warwick Academy Primary.

And the junior series will be extended to take in the national championships on November 21 after race results were scrapped following confusion during last month's event at Daniel's Head.

In the boys' 10 and under, Carlo Paynter needs one more win to clinch the series with rival Andrew Nicholl needing to win both, and in the 12 and under Terrance Dill also requires one win to quash the challenge of Chayce Smith.

Mark Morrison can clinch the boys' 15 and under title with another victory but could be pipped if Tyler Butterfield turns out for both remaining races.

Flora Duffy has already cemented victory in the girls' 12 and under with three wins, Jessica Palmer needs another win to take the girls' 10 and under, and Ashley Robinson Roberts is favourite for the girls' 15 and under although either Tiffany Eatherley or Shar-dae Whitter could overtake her with two wins.
