MATCH REPORT: Important win for Poole as they edge towards Play-offs

June 20, 2016 editor

Despite the absence of one or two of their first choice riders, Swindon provided lively opposition but in the end, all round strength won the day for Poole with Ty Geertsen and Maciej Ganczarek unbeaten by an opponant.

Ganczarek executed some powerful passes on Steve Harris and Jake Neighbour to entertain the crowd on a damp and drizzly afternoon.

One of the races of the day was in heat 13 when Dean Hook made a strong challenge to pass Jake Neighbour on the final lap, but the Swindon rider held on by a hairs breadth!

This was an important win for Poole in their quest to make it to the SWL play-offs.
