New South Wales rider Chris Holder remains undefeated in the Australian Solo Motorbike speedway title after round three at Mt Gambier on Saturday night.
Holder won a pretty straight forward A final while two Mildura riders staged a fantastic two rider war in the B final in one of the most exciting races of the whole series.
Holder, who started from gate two beat out UK rider Joe Screen at the start while Troy Batchelor darted up to third in the A Final.
Holder and Batchelor had the quickest heat wins on the night but for a brief moment in the final Screen had a chance to put pressure on the leader but Holder surged away and has a maximum 60 points from the three rounds.
The B final began sensationally when Tom Hedley burst from gate two to hit the front over Filip Setera but within three quarters of a lap Cameron Woodward from the outside gate four had swept around the outside to challenge.
The two Mildura riders then slogged it to the finishing line with Hedley drifting just a fraction wider on the last bend but Woodward - close to the outside fence kept his line and charged away with extra drive coming out of the bend to snatch victory in the last few bike lengths
Coming to Mt Gambier Hedley was 16th from sixteen but with the troubles of recent weeks behind him he put in a mighty comeback.
In fact the big improver could easily have been in the A Final had he not touched the tapes and been excluded in a heat.
Hedley won two heats on the night and when excluded, reserve replacement James Holder scored two points. In fact Hedley could well have edged out Troy Batchelor from the A Final but it was not to be and he ended up having second pick for gate position in the B Final.
Mildura's Cameron Woodward also made the B Final despite a tough start when he scored zero points.
That was because he drew the toughest heat of the night - Joe Screen (England); Filip Setera (Czech Republic) and Troy Batchelor.
Screen ended up the top point scorer of the night, Batchelor made the A final and next best qualifier was Setera, who had first gate pick for the B final.
Travis McGowan of Mildura did not ride in the third round but is yet to advise officials of whether he is fit to ride in Newcastle or Sydney.
However indications are he would be doubtful for the two final rounds.
The last heat held up the staging of the two finals when NSW rider Richard Sweetman went straight into fence in the first lap. After being treated while lying on the track the youngster was taken to Hospital with bruising and for observation.

Joe Screen (UK) 14pts, Chris Holder (NSW) Fredrik Lindgren (Sweden) 13; Troy Batchelor (Qld) 11, Filip Setera (Czech Republic) 10, Jason Doyle (NSW), Tom Hedley, Cameron Woodward (both Mildura) 9, Robert Ksiezak (SA), Richard Sweetman (NSW) and Josh Grajczonek (Qld) 5pts; Tyron Proctor (Vic) 4; Lee Herne (NSW) 3, Cory Gathercole (Mildura) Trveor Harding (WA), James Holder (NSW) 2, Aaron Summers (SA) 1pt
