For the first half of the meeting, the Gladiators were well in it and trailed by only six points after the first seven heats.

Already without Dan Thompson, who suffered a dislocated shoulder riding in the Speedway of Nations at Belle Vue last Friday, Drew Kemp was drafted in as a guest. He ended up being Plymouth's top scorer on the night, returning 12+1 points from six rides, but it was the home riders that really shone.
