After extracting his revenge on John Stephens, last night, for his recent league win, Alan Brusey cruised into joint first place, one of only two on 2/2. He also seemed to have a very slight edge towards the end of his Rd. 3 game against Roger de Coverly (see below) with a pawn on the 7th rank, but having bishops of opposite colours, it proved impossible to make any inroads and a draw was agreed.
At the end of the day, they remained in the joint lead on 2½/3, but were joined by Mackle, Helbig and Homer.
