HEAT DETAILS

Heat 1: Adams, F. Lindgren, Proctor, Korneliussen (R), 64.17 (3-3)

Adams gates and romps to a terrific time. Korneliussen falls on lap three bend three when at the back.

Heat 2: L. Lindgren, Sedgmen, Risager, Haines, 66.37 (6-6)

Lindgren gets out first from gate three and the order shows little sign of changing.

Heat 3: Zengota, Woffinden, Skornicki, Janowski, 65.99 (9-9)

Zengota comes under pressure from Woffinden at bends three and four of lap one, but then streaks away. Janowski has a crack at Skornicki later but there is no way past.

Heat 4: Stead, Klindt, L. Lindgren, Risager, 66.09 (12-12)

Stead wins at a canter. Klindt passes Lindgren round the outside on bend two. Risager has a look at Lindgren later but it's no more than that.

Heat 5 (awarded): Janowski, Zengota, Proctor (F), F. Lindgren (F) (17-13)

Lindgren nearly comes off trying to get past Janowski on lap three, then on the bend three of the same lap he goes wide and loses it completely, piling into the air fence and Ty Proctor cannot avoid going into the back of him. Race awarded and it's Janowski's first win for Swindon.

Heat 6: Adams, Korneliussn, Klindt, Haines, 66.02 (22-14)

Korneliussen slips round the outside of Klindt on bend two. The Wolves man puts Korneliussen under pressure in the latter stages and nearly forces his way through on lap three. Adams leads all the way.

Heat 7: Woffinden, Stead, Sedgmen, Skornicki (R), 67.06 (25-17)

Woffinden gates. Stead isn't away particularly well and Sedgmen is second until lap two, by which time Woffinden is as good as gone.

Heat 8: Korneliussen, L. Lindgren, Haines, Risager, 67.14 (28-20)

Korneliussen and Lindgren are side by side on the back straight of lap one before the former breaks clear. Haines rode well to keep Risager out, as the Dane was all over him on laps three and four.

Heat 9: Zengota, L. Lindgren, Janowski, Klindt (F), 66.36 (32-22)

Brilliant start by Zengota. Klindt crashes on bend four lap two with no one really near him. Janowski tries everything to get past Lindgren in the last couple of laps but somehow the Wolves man holds on.

Heat 10: Adams, Korneliussen, Woffinden, Skornicki, 66.89 (37-23)

Adams shows his class once more. Korneliussen powers past the Wolves duo on the back straight of lap one.

Heat 11: Stead, Sedgmen, L. Lindgren, Haines.

Freddie Lindgren and Proctor both ruled out of the meeting so Lindgren Jr and Haines come in instead. Great battle between Sedgmen and Lindgren Jr with the pair exchanging places a couple of times.

Heat 12: Skornicki (tac), L. Lindgren, Zengota, Sedgmen, 67.23 (43-32)

A great result for the visitors but surely it's too late for them to get anything now?

Heat 13: Stead, Klindt, Haines, Adams (R), 66.80 (46-35)

Stead gets away at the start and Swindon are on a 5-1. But Adams suffers a chain break at the start of the last lap so it's a 3-3 instead.

Heat 14 (re-run): Woffinden, L. Lindgren, Sedgmen, Janowski (FX), 67.56 (47-40)

Janowski makes a good start and is neck and neck with Woffinden until he gets the third bend all wrong and comes off. Woffinden cruises home in the re-run.

Heat 15 (re-run): Woffinden, Klindt, Zengota, Adams (X), 67.80 (48-45)

Adams is excluded after referee Chris Durno adjudges he touched Woffinden with his back wheel as he attempted to sneak up the inside. Wolves salvage a point after Woffinden dusts himself down to take the win.
