GYTR Yamaha rider Wilson Todd stretched his MXD advantage in round three of the 2015 MX Nationals at Broadford in Victoria.

In the opening moto of the round, Todd won comfortably ahead of Jesse Madden in what was his first appearance on board the Raceline Pirelli Suzuki, while Jonte Reynders was on the final step of the opening race podium.

Fourth in the moto was Kaleb Barham with Wayde Carter fifth, while Connor Tierney, Jayden Rykers, Jamie Harvey, Lachlan Davis and Bailey Coxon.

The luckless Mitch Evans was a non-finisher in his return to racing, going down in the first corner and effectively out of the moto.

Another non-finisher after a strong qualifying session was Jordan Hill, exiting proceedings after lap five. He would later rebound for 12th in moto two.

The second and final MXD moto was topped by Carter in his first win of the season, trailed by Rykers and Todd, who charged through to third and secured the overall in the process.

Behind Todd in fourth for the moto was Barham and Madden completing the top five, while Davis put in another good ride for sixth over Toby Stevens, Coxon, Cory Watts and Tierney.

Overall for the round it was Todd the victor to extend his series lead with a second-straight round win, Carter second and Madden third.

Evans sat out the second moto with an ankle injury, but is yet to undergo X-rays at this point.
