Bolton snooker duo Roger Leighton and Craig Steadman both won their opening games in the Pontins International Open Series at Prestatyn.

Leighton beat Belgian Hans Blanckaert 4-1, while Steadman was convincing in his 4-0 defeat of Paul Veitch. Both players are back in action today, with Leighton facing Stuart Mann and Steadman battling it out against Peter Lines.

Leighton said: "I felt good at the table. I maybe tried too hard at times, but I got there in the end and I'm looking forward to my next game against a tough looking opponent."
