He reached the final of the Speedway World Championship on three occasions in the 1951 Individual Speedway World Championship, 1952 Individual Speedway World Championship and the 1953 Individual Speedway World Championship.[6] He was capped by the England national speedway team against Australia in 1952.[3]

He rode in the top tier of British Speedway from 1948-1965,[7] riding for Bristol Bulldogs, Southampton Saints and Newport Wasps.[8] His successes included winning the National Trophy and the National League with the Southampton Saints.
