With the unfortunate circumstances in the Junior MGP Race and subsequent abandonment of the days racing, Davy's next outing would be on the CSC Branson 560cc Honda in the Senior Classic - Formula 750cc Race now to be run on Thursday. Everyone at Davy Morgan Racing would like to offer their condolences to the family and friends of the two riders who lost their lives.

The race again started well and at Glen Helen on the opening lap Davy was lying in third place and everyone was hopeful of a good run, but it was again not to be as the the breather bottle filled with oil, meaning that there was a problem and a another frustrating retirement this time at the end of the Cronk'y'voddy straight. Day over and only Fridays Lightweight Race to go.

The plan for friday's Lightweight Race was to go off steady and try and stay with the leaders on the opening laps and if still in with a shout after the pit stop to go for it on the final two laps. It all went well on the first lap as Davy led at Glen Helen and pre-race favourrite Dan Sayle was a retirement. By Ramsey Davy was in second place behind Neil Kent by only a handful of seconds, but by the end of the lap Davy had pulled Kent's lead back to 0.57 seconds and the race plan was as they say going to plan. Then on lap two Kent went through Glen Helen, but Davy was late and eventually went through 10 seconds down on the leader, but 40 seconds clear of third place. That was to be it as he never reached the Ballaugh check point and was posted as a retirement.

The Mannmade group 250cc Honda had overheated and lost power on the run up the west side of the island giving the Saintfield Lorry Driver no choice other than to pull in and bring his 2010 Manx Grand Prix to an abrupt end.

Speaking on Friday afternoon a frustrated Davy commented, "I am dissappointed for the whole team, everyone has worked so hard over the past fortnight and we have nothing to show for it, not even one finish. Steve (Caffyn) puts a lot of time and money in to the classic's and we just wanted to get them home, but again i am really annoyed that i have not been able to do that for him. The Lightweight race i thought we would have at least finished, but the wee Honda overheated and lost power, which it has never done before and at the moment we have no idea why. I am sorry for Kevin, Angela (Wood) and mannmade group who sponsored this effort and i am sure it would have been at least a podium so a big thankyou to them and an even bigger sorry that i was not able to bring it home. My trips to the Isle of Man this year other than the two superbike runs at the TT have been a total disaster, if there was a bost home now i would be off, but we have to wait until Sunday morning, then come Monday get ready for Killalane next weekend and hope for a change of fortune".
