WFR/GBC/Fly Racing/Yamaha’s Walker Fowler has been victorious at the first three rounds of the season, and is aiming to continue that success. Fowler also has another reason to be hopeful for the overall win this weekend, this win would be his 49^th one ultimately tying him with Barry Hawk, Jr. on the ATV Overall Wins list. 

After a rough start to the season in Florida, LanMills XC/CST Tires/Houser Racing’s Brycen Neal has been steadily improving and after his second overall at the previous round he is looking to continue pushing forward. On Saturday, Neal will once again be looking to battle at the front and even contest for the overall win.

Maxxis/Elka/Moose Racing’s Jarrod McClure was another rider who did not have the finish he had hoped for in Florida or Georgia. However, McClure rebounded at the last round in North Carolina finishing third overall. As the series heads south one last time, McClure is hoping to keep improving and go for his first win of the season. 

Currently sitting second in the points standings is OBOR/Moose Racing/Parts Unlimited/McGill Mafia’s Adam McGill. With a pair of fourth overall finishes, and a second at round two, McGill is 29 points behind Fowler. McGill knows what it takes to win at this venue, as he took the overall win at its inaugural race in 2016, and he is hoping to do just that this Saturday afternoon.

Maxxis/Fly Racing/Ye Olde Cycle Barn’s Chris Borich has had a good start to his 2019 season. Borich is sitting third in the points championship after rounding out the overall podium at the first two races along with a fifth overall at the previous round. Borich is still looking to earn his 75^th overall ATV win, which he is hoping to grab this weekend.

ATV XC1 Pro rookie, Maxxis/Ithaca Recreation Sports/Fly Racing’s Hunter Hart and GBC/Fly Racing/HMF/Yamaha’s Johnn Gallagher came through sixth and seventh two weeks ago. Coming into this weekend both Hart and Gallagher will look to break into that top five overall. 

XC2 Pro-Am points leader, Pierce Performance/Maxxis/Waynesburg Yamaha’s  John Glauda Jr. earned his third-straight class win while also finishing out the previous race in eighth overall. Glauda Jr. is hoping to keep the momentum rolling into this weekend, and earn his fourth consecutive win of the season. BNR Motorsports/GBC Motorsports/HMF Racing’s Josh Merritt finished just inside the top 10 two weeks ago with a ninth overall. Heading to South Carolina Merritt has his sights set on improving his overall finishing position. 

LanMills XC/CST Tires/Moose Racing’s Drew Landers comes into the fourth round currently sitting second in the XC2 Pro-Am class, just 15 points behind Glauda Jr. With the series heading to the South one last time, Landers is eager to battle for his first class win of the season. 

One rider missing from the previous top 10 results was Yamaha/AmPro/Action Offroad/GBC’s Cole Richardson. At the Steele Creek GNCC, Richardson would suffer a crash ultimately breaking his ATVs A arm, forcing him to be towed in and ending his race for the day. Richardson remains sixth in the points standings, but will be hoping for better results this coming weekend.
