Cookson, who had been the tournament favourite at 9-2, was beaten 21-16.

He was the last Mid Cheshire bowler left in the competition.

Lostock's Mark Winnington fell at the sixth round hurdle.

He was defeated by D Tonge from Flixton 21-16 in the Blackpool based event.

Cookson's defeat by Jagger ended any hopes of a unique end of season treble.

But he is still in contention in the Talbot Trophy and the British Players Championship.

Tomorrow, Thursday, Glynn faces Audenshaw's Billy Munro in the last 16 of the Talbot.

He is joint favourite for the competition with Preston's Brian Duncan.

Then he goes on to play in the final of the British Players on Friday.

He faces Mark Dwayre from Royton.

Also in the final 32 is Stan Frith (Owley Wood).

Frith is quoted at 12-1 for the title and faces Blackpool's very own Charlie Tattersall on Friday morning.
