Mads on the mend: Korneliussen recovers after his crash against Peterborough

The Swindon Robins' were left disappointed as they struggled away from home once again.

 
The Peterborough panthers took the victory with an easy eleven point lead.

 

Swindon were dealt a bitter blow in heat three though, when Mads Korneliussen was involved in a terrifying crash.

The Danish rider drifted into the fence and was flung from his machine in a horrendous manner.

Thankfully, after medical attention Korneliussen get to his feet but understandably withdrew from the remainder of the meeting with concussion.

Yet again, Leigh Adams provided the backbone of Swindon’s performance as the dependable skipper notched a seventeen point haul.

The Australian received sturdy support from Jurica Pavlic who gleamed 12 points from his hectic seven rider schedule. Meanwhile, Troy Batchelor collected two heat victories as he contributed seven points whilst James Wright acquired paid six.
