Guy Martin earned a third straight Southern 100 Solo Championship success by winning Thursday's nine-lap race at the Billown circuit.

Matching his 2013 and 2014 triumphs, Tyco BMW rider Martin held off the challenge of Manxman Dan Kneen, who was twice held up by back markers.

Lincolnshire's Ivan Lintin took the final podium position.

Michael Dunlop slid off at Ballabeg on lap three while holding third spot after winning the earlier 1000cc race.

Ballymoney man Dunlop edged out Martin by 0.08 seconds in the 1000cc event with Dean Harrison a further 1.6 seconds back.

Lintin clinched his second Supertwins victory of the week, finishing ahead of James Cowton and Jamie Coward.

Yorkshireman Harrison won Thursday's Supersport 600 race, setting a new lap record at 109.447mph.

Mar-Train Yamaha rider Harrison was 2.7 seconds in front of Lintin at the flag, with Kneen third.

Martin pipped Michael Dunlop by 0.09 seconds in Wednesday's Senior race at the 4.25-mile circuit.
