“We’re trying very hard to finish top,” he said after their brilliant win at Ipswich on Thursday. “And this is a good result for us, obviously.

“We came here looking for the win and it went very well, we expected a very tough match here, but we made a good start and it went well from there.”

They made a dream start when Sam Masters and Broc Nicol notched a 5-1 over Anders Rowe and Jason Crump who had been warned for moving at the start in the first attempt to stage the race.

Ipswich kept it close until Heat 7 when Luke Becker and Nick Morris combined for a key 5-1 over home skipper Danny King, who chased Morris hard to no avail, and reserve Paul Starke and Parrys International Wolves went 25-17 up.

And when youngster Leon Flint and Nicol combined in the next over Rowe and Drew Kemp they went 12-points up, eventually going on to win convincingly 54-36.

Now Peter Adams takes his side to Peterborough on Monday for what could prove to be a rehearsal for the play-offs.
