Bill Dunn 400m Handicap 1990
Bill Dunn was an outstanding junior (under 19) during the 1930's and upon his sudden death the then President of the Club (Mr F.X. Heerey) donated a trophy to perpetuate Bill's memory. The W.H. Bunn Memorial is a handicap event held over 400 metres. It was held first in 1939 when the winner was Frank Wiseman.
The race is held annually and is one of the most coveted events on the calendar as every Club member has the chance to win.
This year's event was held on Thursday, 15th February at the Domain. There
was a pleasing increase in the numbers contesting the event which required three
heats before the Final could be run.The eventual winnner, Jason Harris, smashed
his previous personal best performance over the distance. Symon Bird was a gallant
second.
