The Supersport 600cc Races appear to be the most popular, at least amongst the early entries received for the Isle of Man Steam Packet Company Southern 100 Road Races in the first few days after entries opened.

A total of 16 have been accepted, so far, including five Newcomers Michael Bates, Albert Walker, Kieran Brockie, Laurence Jones and Russian competitor Danila Krasniuk.

Stephen Bostock, Chris Watson, Michael Mace, Stephen Beale, Andy Sailor, Mark Goodings, Paul Cassidy, Richard Charlton, Gavin Brown, Stuart Rayner and David McConnachy are all entered on a mixture of Honda, Yamaha, Suzuki, Kawasaki and Triumph machinery.
