Rye House were at full strength for their match against King’s Lynn . The Stars, however, had Tom P Madsen at number five as a guest for Oliver Allen and Daniel Giffard likewise for Jan Jaros at number seven. Two 5-1s and two shared heats saw the Rockets take an early eight point lead by heat 4 at 16-8. A 4-2 in heat 5 from Chris Neath and Tommy Allen with Tomas Topinka second increased the home side’s lead to 10 points. Then a second 5-1 from the unbeaten Robson/Kennett pairing took it to 14 at 25-11 in heat 6 and it continued to be one-way traffic all the way for the Rockets after that. The Stars managed only three race winners all night and look to have little chance of the bonus point when the return match is staged next Wednesday. The main talking point of the meeting was the ‘unpleasantness’ in heat 9 when Chris Neath wiped out Tom P Madsen while coming from the back. Madsen ended up on the other side of the fence and the two riders exchanged ‘words’. Indeed it was more than words as Chris Neath allegedly struck Madsen with the Stars guest ending up needing medical attention having suffered from concussion (presumably from the accident). Madsen took no further part in the match. Match Report by Merlin |
