SPEED ACE Damien Hack helped England to a 93-85 win over Scotland in the Junior Cycle Speedway International.

The A&T rider won two races to score 15 out of a possible 20 points in Edinburgh.

At the interval England looked a beaten side, trailing by seven points, but turned the match round in the second half.

Team mate Lee Phillips had mixed fortunes on his England debut in a senior international. Coming in as reserve, he fell first time out but recovered to win his second race. Final score: England 54, Ireland 40, Wales 35, Scotland 30.

A&T is on the look-out for new riders. Anyone interested should attend Wednesday night training sessions at the Gin Pit headquarters.
