​Graham Sycamore won the junior half mile title at the New Zealand grass track championship in February 1960. Sycamore who was turning 19 was unlucky not to achieve another win, but did manage a third in the mile event, which Graham Wright of Wellington won ahead of M. Grace from Auckland.

Ray Alcock was the other Southland representative at the meet and got a credible third place in the senior three mile after looking hopelessly placed with a lap to go.
It was a battle of tactics with D. Smith and G. Ulmer opening up a winning break early in the race.  They held a 75 yard advantage over the rest of the field.  Alcock wound up his pace and showed a brillant burst of speed and began to gather in the field but the finish line came up too soon.
