Racing League tables: London and The South extend advantage at the top as Sean Levey leads race for £20k prize

London and The South extended their advantage at the top of Racing League with a double at Lingfield on week two of the competition.

Starting the evening with a 46-point lead, Matt Chapman’s side secured maximum points (25) in races three and seven as Immortal Beauty and Diamond Bay both scored.

The big movers in the table were The East, lifting themselves off the bottom with victory in the opening race and following that up with a number of placed efforts, adding valuable points to their overall total.
