Britain’s Speedway Control Board have issued a statement after Glasgow Tigers’ rider, Lee Complin, was withdrawn from the Berwick Bandits v Glasgow Tigers BSN Series qualifier in the Borders on Saturday.

The statement reads: “At the Berwick v Glasgow BSN fixture on Saturday 6th April 2024, four riders, two from each team, had been randomly selected for an Anti Doping test.

“Glasgow rider Lee Complin was one of the four riders selected and, unfortunately, Mr Complin’s test had comeback as a non–negative result, therefore has been excluded from the event.

“The sample test will now be sent to the laboratory for further analysis. Mr Complin’s SCB Registration will be suspended until the results have been confirmed from the laboratory.”
