The New Zealand cycling medal chest was boosted by three further discs at Brisbane's Anna Meares Velodrome tonight.

Clareburt finished in a national record time of 4.14.42, 1.3 seconds behind the gold medalist, Australia's Clyde Lewis.

The Wellingtonian shattered his personal best by over four seconds, and was stoked by his performance. His medal come less than a minute after Dawkins crossed the line in third at the velodrome.

Elsewhere on finals day in the pool, Daniel Hunter and Sam Perry finished fifth and sixth respectively in the 50 metre butterfly, while Corey Main finished seventh in the 100 metre backstroke.

Para-swimmers Chris Arbuthnott, Jesse Reynolds and Tupou Neiufi all also missed the medals in their finales.
