STEVE Worrall’s testimonial meeting at Wimborne Road this evening has been postponed.

The decision has been taken due to forecast rain in Poole today.

Pirates captain Worrall had assembled a star-studded line-up for the event, which would have seen a Poole team face-off against a septet representing Belle Vue Aces.

Among those signed up to race were Antonio Lindback, Danny King, Matej Zagar, Freddie Lindgren and Rory Schlein.

But it was announced on Wednesday morning the meeting will no longer go ahead as planned.

A statement from Pirates read: “Unfortunately, due to tonight's inclement weather forecast in Poole, the decision had been made to postpone Steve's testimonial.”

They add a restaging date is “to be confirmed” and that pre-booked tickets to the event will be refunded.
