Skipper Wright helps take Bears to top of table
The Gazette
|April 28, 2025
“THAT shows what a strong side we have,” declared skipper Charles Wright after Redcar climbed to the top of the fledgling Northern Qualifying Group of the BSN Series with a thumping victory over the side that edged the verdict in Lincolnshire on Good Friday.
The Agilia Bears dominated many aspects of the previous encounter but just failed to get over the line - losing 46-44 - after failing to provide sufficient back-up to their outstanding heatleader
OXFORD CHARGERS 48MIDDLESBROUGH TIGERS 42
DYNAMIC displays from teenagers Ace Pijper and Cooper Rushen could not prevent Middlesbrough suffering a third narrow away defeat this month at Oxford.
Pijper carried on where he left off on Friday, for Championship Redcar, by adding a fine 12+ to his 7+4 at the higher level.
Cooper Rushen, just 15 and the sport's current sensation, included four race wins and was only denied a full maximum when his electrical cut-out came adrift whilst leading heat one.
