Neil Middleditch Testimonial @ Poole

CHRIS Harris stole the show in Neil Middleditch’s Testimonial meeting at Poole with a six-ride 18-point maximum.

Harris was representing the Meridian Lifts Heroes, who won 51-39 against the County Crest All Stars despite a heavy crash for Hans Andersen in Heat 7 which caused his withdrawal.

The meeting also featured a lap of honour from three former World Champions who have represented the Pirates – Mark Loram, Tony Rickardsson and Gary Havelock.

Harris said: “That was a good one, it’s a pity I couldn’t do that last week (in the CLRC). It was nice to be here to honour Middlo, the good friend that he has become over the years, and I enjoyed it out there tonight.

“I just hope that Hans will be ok as he suffered a pretty heavy crash and I wish him all the best.”
