Astley & Tyldesley hosted Round 6 of the Manchester League series at Gin Pit on Wednesday evening. A&T took the win in the Division 1 match, to seal the Division 1 title for the first time since 2008, ending Stockport's incredible run of ten successive Division 1 title wins. Just six riders lined up in the Senior match, but there was no shortage of competitive racing, with A&T's Steve Harris emerging as the top scorer on the night. Senior Grand Prix leader Jake Read, of Stockport, won heat 2, to secure the Senior Grand Prix title.
