Report

REDCAR captain Charles Wright won the Championship League Riders’ Championship in a thrilling Final at the ECCO Arena.

Wright came out on top in a three-way battle with Glasgow’s Chris Harris and Ben Cook of Poole, with Cook having led the scorers heading into the closing stages.

Another Bears rider Danny King was fourth in a meeting which provided some excellent racing after superb work by the track staff to get the event on following afternoon rain.

Wright said: “It feels brilliant, especially on my home track as well, and with the weather we has before we didn’t even think we’d get this meeting on.

“I battled through, I had a slow start but I got in the semi, got through that, and I had the worst gate in the Final but I made a cracking first corner and my home track knowledge came through.

“It’s one I’ve never won before, and it’s a great feeling.”
