World Match Racing Tour

Today we will be bringing your Mark Chisnell's blow by blow coverage of the semi-finals of the Match Race France, the first round of the ISAF 2010 World Match Race Tour

Yesterday, a bet against neither of the two young guns, New Zealander Adam Minoprio, the 2009 World Champion and his serious rival Australian Torvar Mirsky both missing out on the semis in the 2010 Match Race France would have been a long shot.

But the World Match Tour is very tough. They both lost yesterday in some sensational quarter final racings and now its the battle of the Europeans.

Look at his amazing record on this circuit, you'd have to say Ben Ainslie name is likely to be writ large but here are a few hurdles.

Racing is underway early. Ben Ainslie has chosen Paolo Cian as his opponent, they will be the first race, followed by Mathieu Richard and Francesco Bruni.
