HARROGATE eased their National League Two worries with an 11-try romp in a runaway 79-5 victory over Bracknell at Claro Road.

The crushing win ended a run of four successive defeats and was never in doubt after they were 14-0 up in the first ten minutes.

Try scorers were James Japster (3), Scott Powell, Scott Wilson, Andy Smithies (2), Wiri Raihania, Richard Brown, Andy Boyle and Paul Clayton. Lee Cholewa kicked the remaining 24 points.

Harrogate's Yorkshire back row forward Mike Worden, 28, has been forced to quit the game because of a persistent hip injury.
