EDINBURGH SPEEDWAY STATEMENT

TONIGHT’S (Friday) match between the Stellar Monarchs and Poole was abandoned after the first running of Heat 6 which was stopped after Craig Cook picked up grip on the fourth bend with his bike clearing the fence.

Both stadium ambulances attended the scene and one person has been taken to hospital by ambulance. We will provide more details when we have them.

The match had been one-sided to that point with Poole leading 21-9.
