AIDAN Collins extended his lead at the top of the British Flattrack Championships with a winning weekend in Eastbourne.

The Honda rider got off to the best possible start in round three, winning his first heat before finishing second in the next two.

In one he carved his way through from the back of the grid to take second grid position for the final.

Collins then made a superb start to the final, taking the lead and controlling the race until the chequered flag.

It gives the Thelwall rider a six-point lead over closet rival Kawasaki rider Oliver Brindley.

The next round is to be held at Kings Lynn.
