The meeting - the ninth of its kind - raises funds for the Speedway Riders Benevolent Fund, which helps injured riders.

It has attracted some of the world’s top riders to its line-up in the past and heads to the Peugeot Ashfield Stadium on Sunday, March 12, at 2pm.

He said: “We are grateful to Glasgow Tigers Speedway for volunteering to stage the meeting.

“They were very keen to have the meeting and have been most accommodating.”
