1 (6-1-1)	2	Cooper Webb	Another advantageous night for Webb. He did not look great in Race 1... started mid-pack and could only work his way up to 6th (couldn't get around Barcia). He got a much better start in Race 2, and then took advantage of a fall from Sexton to win it. In Race 3 he started 7th, but quickly worked his way up close to the front. He then took advantage of a stall from Sexton to grab the lead, and then another crash from Sexton to win the Overall. Too easy for Coop.
2 (1-5-3)	94	Ken Roczen	Roczen started second, put down some fast laps behind Justin Cooper, and then eventually made the pass to get the Race 1 win. Unfortuantely in Race 2 he couldn't back it up: mid-pack start and could only get up to 5th. Things were looking better after quickly getting out to the lead in Race 3, but he lost the pace and eventually got passed by Sexton, Webb, and Anderson (Sexton would later crash to give the spot back and with it 2nd overall). Roczen was close to winning the overall... just needed a bit more pace/longevity in that final race.
3 (3-2-5)	4	Chase Sexton	Sexton seemed patient in Race 1... didn't quite have the pace of Roczen or Justin Cooper in front so he settled for 3rd knowing there was still plenty of racing left. However, that's about where his patience ended... he tried to force the issue on Justin Cooper in Race 2 but crashed... allowing Webb to get by and win. That was compounded by two mistakes in Race 3: a stall which allowed Webb to get out front, and then another crash on the last lap while leading the overall. These are valuable points he's giving away to Web... luckily there's still plenty of races left in the championship.
4 (2-3-6)	32	Justin Cooper	This is the best Cooper we've seen all year right? He led for quite a bit of laps in Races 1 and 2, but couldn't capitalize and then didn't start out front in Race 3. I would have liked for him to race through the pack a bit in that final race, but he got shuffled around a bit and couldn't find his fast lap times. Overall, positive night for Cooper.
5 (4-4-8)	46	Justin Hill	Wow. Fastest qualifier, backed up by two great 4th place rides in races 1 and 2 (he even had a faster lap time than Sexton in Race 1). Unfortunately he got a bad start in Race 3 (14th) and had to work his way back into the top 10. Overall, he finishes top 5 (first top 5 since 2023) and has plenty of positives to take away from the night.
6 (5-9-4)	51	Justin Barcia	Bam Bam is back! Top 10 start in Race 1, made some passes, and held off Webb for 5th. Race 2 is where Bam Bam started to shine though... cross-jumped to block Roczen, aggressive pass on Anderson, taken down by Anderson, and then charged from 12th to 9th. He followed that up in Race 3 with a wicked good charge from a 17th place start all the way up to 4th, including a last lap last corner pass on Sexton. Well done Barcia!
7 (7-7-10)	7	Aaron Plessinger	Plessinger had decent starts most of the night but didn't have the pace to ride near the front. He dropped from 4th to 8th in Race 1 (before Anderson crashed), worked his way from 12th to 7th in Race 2, and then in Race 3: holeshot, crashed back to 17th, and then rode up to 10th.
8 (9-6-11)	14	Dylan Ferrandis	Ferrandis looked decent today. Mid-pack start and finish in the first two races (took advantage of a fall for Barcia and Anderson to get that 6th in Race 2), but looked good in Race 3 in 6th before crashing back. He'll be happy to finish ahead of Stewart, Savatgy, Anderson, etc.
9 (8-12-7)	27	Malcolm Stewart	Stewart was quiet all night, and didn't have the pace to charge forward. He got shuffled back on the opening laps of Race 1, was in 7th before a crash in Race 2, and was top 5 in the last race before getting passed by Cooper and Barcia.
10 (11-8-9)	17	Joey Savatgy	Savatgy was 9th before crashing in Race 1, but rebounded two top 10s to end the night. He got passed by Ferrandis and Plessinger in Race 2 which I'm guessing he's not happy about. Race 3 was just riding around 9th the whole time.
11 (12-17-2)	21	Jason Anderson	Anderson could have had a much better Overall finish. He was battling for a top 5 in 7th before crashing in Race 1, and then he messed up his bike or something by taking down Barcia in Race 2. Luckily, he salvaged his night with a great ride in Race 3 passing Roczen and racing up front.
12 (10-11-13)	49	Mitchell Oldenburg	Oldenburg was looking fast all day in his home-state race! A solid top 10 in Race taking advantage of problems from Savatgy and Anderson. He got a bad start (16th) in Race 2 but worked his way forward. In Race 3 he started 12th and mostly stayed there.
13 (13-10-12)	12	Shane McElrath	McElrath had a bad start and worked his way up to 13th in Race 1. He beat Oldenburg by 1 spot in the remaining races, but those 3 positions he lost in Race 1 were too much to overcome (in terms of beating Oldenburg in the Overall). McElrath started 2nd in Race 3 but dropped back quite a bit... regardless, it was cool to see him riding up front for a bit!
14 (15-14-15)	77	Jerry Robin	Robin was consistently good tonight! No doubt he was the best "privateer"... He had a comfortable gap over the guys behind him in all 3 races.
15 (14-13-22)	45	Colt Nichols	Nichols should have finished 14th ahead of Robin if not for his DNF in Race 3. Luckily he's okay. The first two races were just bleh for him though... he should be racing more closely with McElrath and Oldenburg.
16 (18-16-16)	86	Mitchell Harrison	Not much to say about Harrison's night... he started around 16th in the first two and finished around there. He started better in Race 3 but still finished around there. Consistent rides: no crashes.
17 (17-22-14)	57	Benny Bloss	Another bad night for Bloss. He was in 14th before crashing in Race 1, completely crashed out of Race 2, but finished the night strongly with a 14th in Race 3. In Race 3 he actually started ahead of Oldenburg but lost the spot to him... Overall, he just needs to stay on two wheels.
18 (22-15-17)	72	Anthony Rodriguez	Tough start to the night crashing out of Race 1 and limping off... but glad he's okay! After that he continued his impressive riding and beat most of the other privateers; he passed and beat Harrison in Race 2, but started too far behind him in the final race.
19 (19-18-18)	122	Justin Starling	Starling has yet to find starts and/or speed in any Main Event or Triple Crown race. He started outside the top 20 in all the races. In Race 1 he passed Meshey, in Race 2 and 3 he passed Harlan; little victories each race he can build off of.
20 (16-21-21)	11	Kyle Chisholm	Chisholm was smooth and consistent in Race 1, but it went downhill from there. He was in 17th before crashing back to last in Race 2, and then crashed at the beginning of Race 3 whilst in 15th.
21 (21-19-19)	43	Grant Harlan	Harlan should have had a better night. He crashed whilst in 16th behind McElrath in Race 1, and then looked off the rest of the night with bad starts and not being able to race forward.
22 (20-20-20)	411	Scott Meshey	Meshey's first "Main Event" since 2022! Congrats.

1 (1-1-2)	38	Haiden Deegan	Amazing night for Deegan. Crash in Race 1 to come back to win (he was all the way back in 9th at one point). Horrible start in Race 2 back in 12th, but still came back to win. And another so-so start in Race 3 to come up to 2nd (he didn't need the win in Race 3 to win the overall). Good night for the championship points too.
2 (2-4-6)	37	Coty Schock	Schock gets his first career podium! Great starts in all 3 races. He led in both Race 1 and 3. He dropped back the most in Race 3 and almost lost 2nd Overall on the last lap, but held onto it. Great riding for him.
3 (3-2-7)	93	Michael Mosiman	The return of Mosiman to the podium! He also started well in all 3 races (inside the top 5) and even led all but one lap of Race 2. Soooo close to that Race 2 win...
4 (5-5-3)	30	Jo Shimoda	Shimoda was leading the first race, got passed by Smith, and then crashed back to 7th. Race 2 was in 5th basically from the get-go and stayed there. Race was the most impressive though... started 7th and passed Marchbanks, Mosiman, Schock, and beaumer to get up to 3rd. Much better weekend for Jo.
5 (7-3-5)	36	Garrett Marchbanks	Bad start outside the top 10 in Race 1 and could only crawl up to 7th. Race 2 was a lot better... started near the front and stayed there (only got passed by Deegan). Race 3 stayed in 6th the whole time. Overall, decent night for 5th.
6 (6-8-4)	23	Julien Beaumer	Apparently Beaumer dislocated his shoulder in qualifying practice? That sucks... and basically sums up his night. Was not looking great... no fast laps and was getting passed in all 3 races (plus a crash in Race 2). The last race was his best and was up in 2nd at one point, but eventually got passed by Deegan and Shimoda.
7 (4-17-1)	100	Cole Davies	Davies will be wanting more after showing impressive qualifying speed. Was slow to start Race 1 and got shuffled back a bit, but finished it strong with a 4th. Then the first turn crash in Race 2 ruined the rest of the night (overall-wise). Amazing rebound to win the last race, but 7th Overall is all he could muster after that crash.
8 (9-6-8)	166	Enzo Lopes	Lopes' best finish of the year! Started in 9th and was going back-and-forth with Walsh for the first part of Race 1. A start inside the top 10 in Race 2, plus a crash from Beaumer, helped him move up to 6th. And then he stayed comfortably in 8th for all of Race 3.
9 (8-7-9)	65	Lux Turner	Lux continues his impressive rides (and impressive starts)! He started 4th in Races 1 and 2 before dropping back a bit. In Race 3 he started 9th and stayed there... so 9th is right where he belongs right now?
10 (14-9-13)	54	Jett Reynolds	Best finish of Reynolds career in SX... first top 10! In Race 1 started in 13th but then crashed back to 18th before moving up a few spots (mostly due to crashes from others). Race 2 is where he really shined... finally started inside the top 10 and stayed there the whole race. Race 3 was back to normal with a 14th place start... if he can start inside the top 10, we might expect more top 10 finishes from him?
11 (16-10-11)	63	Hunter Yoder	Yoder had a crash in Race 1 and was wayyy back; would have finished a lot worse if not for crashes from others. He had a bad start in 18th in Race 2 but worked his way forward to an impressive 10th. Then in Race 3 he gets a better start in 12th but only made one move up to 11th... Regardless, he belongs around this top 10 right now.
12 (10-12-15)	101	Dylan Walsh	This is the best we've seen of Walsh all season. Top 10 start in Race 1 and looked strong running that pace. Worked his way up from 15th in Race 2, but couldn't quite do that in Race 3.
13 (11-13-14)	61	Cole Thompson	Thompson was fast in qualifying (which is rare from him) but struggled a bit in the races: couldn't pass Walsh in Race 1, caused Davies' first turn crash in Race 2, and then got a bad start (was in 20th at one point) in Race 3.
14 (12-20-10)	302	Parker Ross	Ross barely made it into the Races after a crash in the LCQ, but after that mostly continued his impressive rides. He worked his way from 18th up to 12th in Race 1, started in the top 5 in Race 2 but crashed a few times to drop wayyy back, but then rebounded with a nice top 10 start and finish in Race 3. If it wasn't for his crashes in Race 2, it would be another top 10 overall finish for him.
15 (13-18-16)	44	Dilan Schwartz	First supercross race for Schwartz since 2023! That Race 1 ride is what he needs... it was so-so start near the back but slowly moved his way forward. He was looking to continue that in Race 2 with a top 10 start, but crashed back to 20th (while in 11th) around the mid-way point. After a bad start in Race 3 he had worked his way up to 12th, but then crashed back once again. Could have been a lot better for him!
16 (15-15-17)	964	Dominique Thury	Good to make the races, but nothing special with the actual racing. He started near the back every race and stayed there for the most part.
17 (19-11-18)	115	Gavin Towers	Kudos to Towers for making it into the races after a crazy last lap pass in the whoops during the LCQ. He had a bad start in Race 1, wasn't moving forward, and then crashed. Race 2 was a lot better with a mid-pack start and was super close to a top 10 finish but got passed by Yoder on the last lap. Then after a so-so start he crashed again in Race 3.
18 (22-16-12)	134	Avery Long	Long was in the back of the pack in 18th for all of Race 1 before crashing in the whoops and DNFing. Race 2 was looking better in 12th before he crashed back, but he finally pulled it together with a top 10 start in Race 3 and staying around the mid-pack area. Nice to see him back racing after that nasty SD LCQ crash.
19 (17-14-19)	91	Tj Albright	Albright was riding around the back for Race 1, but then started looking better. Race 2 he started 13th, got shuffled back to 18th... but then took advantage of some crashes to move up a bit. He was looking good in Race 3 in 14th before he crashed and moved back.
20 (18-19-21)	67	Joshua Varize	Varize was in 16th and then crashed in Race 1. Varize was in 18th and then crashed in Race 2. I guess he was tired of crashing, cause in Race 3 he just rode around; started in last and stayed in last.
21 (20-21-20)	667	Anton Nordstrom	First SX ever for Nordstrom and straight into the races from qualifying! He just rode around in last in all of the races... but he should just be happy to make the races!
22 (21-22-22)	19	Jordon Smith	Ughhhhh Smith was looking great in Race 1 before that nasty crash. Sucks to see... he was fighting for this championship.
