WOLVERHAMPTON put a severe dent in Birmingham’s play-off hopes with an impressive 53-40 derby win at Monmore on Monday.
It was a perfect way to bounce back after the disappointment of Saturday’s heavy defeat at Eastbourne.
Swedish star Freddie Lindgren was in unstoppable form with 14+1 and Tai Woffinden enjoyed a string of heat wins in his 12+1 haul.
Ricky Wells was again excellent in the middle order - and with Ty Proctor and Nicolai Klindt both scoring solidly, Wolves had a powerful main body leading them to victory.
Lindgren said: "It is really great to bounce back from a terrible night down at Eastbourne like that.
"I definitely feel like I am more comfortable on the bike and I am a lot more confident again in Britain which is very good.”
WOLVERHAMPTON 53: Freddie Lindgren 14+1, Tai Woffinden 12+1, Ricky Wells 9, Nicolai Klindt 6+1, Ty Proctor 6, Jacob Thorssell 3+1, Pontus Aspgren 3,
BIRMINGHAM 40: Josh Auty 9, Ben Barker 8+1, Danny King 7+1, Bjarne Pedersen 4+1, Sebastian Ulamek 4+1, Martin Smolinski 4+1, Nicolas Covatti 4.
It sounds simple, but sometimes we can all forget to step back and look after our own wellbeing.
