ROYNON ROMPS TO TOP GUN WIN

Friday July 13, 2007
ADAM Roynon underlined his credentials as one of Britain's big hopes for the future with victory in the Top Gun individual.

Roynon, who rides for Rye House in the Premier League but is a Coventry asset, was a worthy winner as he was the best rider on show.

He sped to victory in the final ahead of Boston's Simon Lambert and Sheffield reserve James Cockle after a classy performance, which saw him top the qualifying list with four wins.

His only defeat came at the hands of Lambert in his fourth ride as he tied on 14 points with Lambert and pre-meeting favourite Cockle, with the three riders comfortably fending off the chasing pack.

Qualifying: A. Roynon 14, J. Cockle 14, S. Lambert 14, J. Roberts 11, D Speight 9, G. Blair 9, B. Bekker 8, S. Waldron 8, S. Richardson 8, K. Ezergailis 5, J. Haines 5, S. Anderson 4, B. Taylor 4, G. Flint 2, A. Blackburn 2, A. Chandler 2, B. Hopwood 0.
Semi Final: 1. Lambert, 2. Roberts, 3. Blair, 4. Speight.
Final: 1. Roynon, 2. Lambert, 3. Cockle, 4. Roberts.
