TIGERS ENTERTAIN AND WIN!

CHRIS Harris and Benjamin Basso provided the thrills as Glasgow defeated Plymouth 55-35 in an entertaining Cab Direct Championship clash at Ashfield.

Harris, who scored 11, was involved in some classic racing whilst Basso secured a 15-point maximum by passing Kyle Howarth on the last bend of a thrilling Heat 15.

The Tigers are third in the league standings, six points off leaders Oxford with three matches in hand, whilst the Gladiators remain bottom despite double figure scores from Howarth (12+1) and Richie Worrall (10+1).

Glasgow boss Cami Brown said: “Plymouth are bottom of the league but I warned everyone they are a good side. They proved that tonight. They really took it to us and their top three are very strong. 

“But I was really happy with the way our boys tackled the meeting. It was a really gutsy performance. 

“Chris Harris was outstanding once again and his win over Ben Barker from the back in Heat 10 was another classic. He never gives up and the fans love him.

“We want top class entertainment at Glasgow and we got it tonight. The track staff work night and day to get it right. But this sport is all about exciting racing and Ashfield delivers it. There were three epic races tonight.”
