\n Mid Canterbury gained a jump on the field with a 25-17 win over King Country in Ashburton on Saturday.<\/strong><\/p>\n

With closest rivals North Otago and Poverty Bay suffering losses, it left Wairarapa Bush and Wanganui at the head of the chasing bunch.<\/p>\n

Mid Canterbury are on 13 points after three games while Wanganui moved to second with a thumping 40-10 away win over North Otago, the previous second-placed side. Conditions were so windy in Oamaru that all of Wanganui’s 40 points came from tries.<\/p>\n

Wairarapa Bush travelled to Westport and beat the home team 14-13 in a thriller. Sadly for Buller stalwart Phil Beveridge he wasn’t able to celebrate his 150th game for the Union with a win.<\/p>\n

Other sides to claim big wins were Thames Valley, who beat East Coast 50-13 while Horowhenua Kapiti beat Poverty Bay 54-26. Horowhenua Kapiti Brandyn Laursen had a great day scoring 29 points, equalling JPM Hamilton’s record set against the West Coast in 2010.<\/p>\n
