Report

NEWCASTLE and Redcar drew 45-45 at Brough Park as the Bears completed the formality of winning the Tyne/Tees Trophy.

Erik Riss competed a five-ride paid maximum (14+1) in the last race as the visitors took a 4-2 to ensure a share of the spoils on the day.

Riss was backed up by Lewis Kerr (11) and Charles Wright (10) whilst Paul Starke top-scored for the Diamonds on 10.

Newcastle boss Rob Grant said: “We’re starting to polish things up as a team now, and despite only taking a draw tonight, you could see way more sparks of good racing coming out for us.

“Max Clegg and Paul Starke in particular were collecting good points, with two wins each, while Heat 14 was a very important race for Lee Complin, who just put his head down and got stuck right in for his win which will do nothing but really boost his confidence.

“In speedway that’s the sort of thing that can really spark a rider’s points piling, so we can’t wait to see what he produces next week.”
