Astley & Tyldesley welcomed Stockport for a Northern League fixture at
Gin Pit, on a warm and windy day.
In the Division 1 match, A&T took advantage of two Jake Read gate
exclusions to open up a 26-22 lead after 5 heats. The visitors promptly
banged in two successive 7-3 heat wins, to re-take the lead. From then
on, Stockport controlled the match, to run out 100-78 winners, and
extend their unbeaten run at the top of the table. A&T claimed inside
grids from heat 13 onwards. Jack Lush and Terry Norman both raced
unbeaten for the visitors, whilst Reece Pollitt and Paul Graham were
A&T's only race winners. Only two race winners proved to be A&T's
downfall, as all their riders were solid scoring.
