That would be Jackie then.

 

His nephew Jonathan Swales is the track curator at Newcastle and was the Conference League Champion riding for Mildenhall in the late 90's.

The WCQR results at Middlesbro' was great to see-but who is M.Tate??

 

Maurice Tate is an Uncle of the current Swales boys and currently works on the start gate at Redcar. I used to watch both Maurice and his brother, another Jackie I think, scrambling at the now defunct scramble track at Belmont, Co Durham in the late 50's. Maurice always won, but if he didn't then Jackie usually did. That was unless a Lampkin was visiting.

I used to ride my bicycle down from Newcastle to each meeting.
