Are there any grading capped sections, or is it just an Open?

[Mick Norris]

See attached

1 section at least 2 grading prizes, so similar to the Busy Persons events we have had for years - gives you a good range of opponents, I got a 20 grade, Oliver Jackson, a 29 grade and a 174 in the first 4 rounds once

Cheers Mick Will try and get along, though I've just talked the missus into letting me play at Chester Le Street (and stay over to boot) Stockport is a bit close and I might be pushing my luck
