Grant, on the KR4 Arrive-n-Ride Husqvarna, actually held the overall lead after the first three tests but faltered in the remaining three. Steward took full advantage by winning those final three tests and capturing the overall victory. The win was a big one for Stewart as it gave him nine valuable points on championship leader Thad Duvall, who took third.
Duvall was riding with an injured wrist, which he suffered during the first day of competition at the ISDE a few weeks ago. Duvall now leads Steward Baylor by just seven points with two rounds left in the 2017 Kenda AMA National Enduro Championship.
KTM rider Evan Smith was fourth overall, followed by Josh Strang (Husqvarna), Cory Buttrick (KTM), Ben Kelley (KTM), Jesse Groemm (KTM), Thorn Devlin (Husqvarna) and former champ Russell Bobbitt (KTM).
Devlin (ninth overall) clinched the Expert AA Championship having so far running the tables in the class on the AirGroup Racing/Enduro Engineering Husqvarna, as did Tayla Jones in the Women’s Elite Championship on her KR4 Arive-n-Ride Husqvarna.
