Swindon started 2016 with impressive away win at Horspath on Sunday 10th April.
Historically the Village is a tough place to visit with its tight and technical corners. Swindon, who were missing a couple of key riders, rode sensibly throughout the meeting, led by the evergreen Steve Harris. The Robins secured heat advantages where possible to comfortably put the meeting to bed.
