Sun 27th July Northern Fours and Grand Prix Round 4 Astley & Tyldesley

Astley & Tyldesley hosted Round 4 of the Northern Fours & Junior League series at Gin Pit. On another very hot day, the track quickly dried out, despite plenty of heavy watering on several occasions. Despite this, there was plenty of good racing, with several quick times recorded.

Stockport raced to victory in the Fours League match, to take the lead at the top of the league table. Although Stockport led all match, they were pushed all the way by both Astley & Tyldesley and Bury Comets. Heckmondwike rode steadily to take 4th place, whilst Bury Meteors just pipped Hull to finish in 5th place. Jack Lush raced unbeaten for Stockport, with twin brother Mat losing only to Bury's Ben Scranage in heat 15. Reece Pollitt was in top form for Astley & Tyldesley and he lost only to Bury's Chris Parish in heat 16. Mat Lush recorded the fastest time of the day, 42.80 seconds, when winning heat 25.
