Glasgow Tigers play-off hopes suffered a jolt when they were shocked at home by mid-table Peterborough Panthers.

The injury-hit Scots lost 50-40 to Panthers who scored throughout the team.

Jack Holder powered to 12 points and Chris Harris scored ten points.
Glasgow’s top man was Richard Lawson with 11 points and Richie Worrall scored 10.

Earlier, a 5-1 for Panthers in Heat Seven proved a set-back for the home side who slipped 23-19 behind.

Panthers followed-up with a 4-2 in the following race to lead 27-21.
Glasgow hit back with a 4-2 in Heat 10 to narrow the gap to 28-32 but the English combine kept their cool.

They won the next race 4-2 for a six-point lead and drew the next three heats to go into the last race 45-39 in front.

And Holder and ex-Grand Prix Harris won Heat 15 leaving Lawson in third and Worrall in fourth.
