Michael Anthony produced a gem in the early cycling season yesterday, racing to victory in the feature 35-lap event of the 14th Diamond Mineral Water multi race programme.

Staged at the National Park in perfect conditions for racing, Anthony snapped the two-race win streak of Romello Crawford, bettering breakaway mate, Brighton John in a thrilling two-man finish to take the top honors of the race.

Anthony who also copped two sprint prizes on the circuit, won the event after stopping the clock in one hour, 21 minutes and 14 seconds of intense racing.
