Berwick were the hosts for the last leg of the Isle of Wight ’s third visit in three nights to the northern tracks. Berwick had Tom Brown at number 7 for the departed Joachim Kugelmann but otherwise were on the usual lines. The Isle of Wight fielded the same team which was hammered at Edinburgh with the exception of Manuel Hauzinger who had withdrawn with a back strain. The Islanders used R/R in his place at number 2. The Islanders actually led for the first three heats. Craig Boyce won the opening heat with Jason Doyle third for a 2-4 and the next two heats were shared. Michal Makovsky and Tom Brown turned the score around with a 5-1 to make the heat 4 score 13-11. However Craig Boyce and Krister Marsh put the Islanders back in front with a 1-5 in heat 5 and it wasn’t until heat 7 that Berwick squared the match with a 4-2. Another shared race in heat 8 won by Scott Smith replacing Adam Pietraszko who, it was announced, had been withdrawn from the meeting with damaged knuckles, kept the scores level at 24-24. Berwick then took control with a 5-1 in heat 9 and 4-2 in heat 10 for a six point lead on which the Islanders never made any impression. Three more shared heats meant that the Bandits were still those 6 points ahead with two races to go and they closed the match out with a 5-1 in heat 14 when Ostergaard finished third to Tom P Madsen and Scott Smith. Craig Boyce won the final race for a personal tally which saw him beaten only once all night. Match Report by Merlin |
