ROWE WINS BRITISH SEMI

ANDERS Rowe headed the qualifiers for the British Final as the Sheffield and Oxford rider won Sunday’s semi-final at Leicester.

Rowe scored 13 points which turned out to be enough for first place on the day when Jason Edwards, who was unbeaten from his first four rides, finished last in Heat 20.

Edwards still took second overall and was joined on the podium at the Hydroscand Arena by former British Champion Craig Cook who also scored 12.

Lions regular Drew Kemp safely reached the Belle Vue showpiece with 11 points, and the list of qualifiers was completed by two teenagers who will both now make their British Final debuts.

Jody Scott put in a strong performance throughout the day to score 10, whilst Will Cairns made a dramatic recovery from a last place in his first ride to take the final qualifying place ahead of Jake Mulford in a run-off after both scored nine.

The British Final will take place on Saturday August 15 at the National Speedway Stadium with the full line-up to be confirmed soon.
