After a slow start we gave Glasgow a good match at Ashfield, assisted by a successful TR in heat 8.

The Scotwaste Monarchs fought back after a slow start to put up a decent showing at Ashfield.

The Scotwaste Monarchs lost by 9 on a very heavy Berwick track.

It's the first of our four scheduled visits to Ashfield this season, the Spring Trophy match having been postponed by the rain. There's no doubt that this will be a tough match with Glasgow now showing some form around their own track following their customary home defeat to Workington a few weeks ago.

There must be something about Saturday speedway that decrees it must be run on sopping wet tracks.

It's fair to say that Berwick has not been one of our most productive hunting grounds just as Armadale has not been one of Berwick's. This is largely down to the totally different size and nature of the two tracks. On Saturday we have another opportunity to raid the Bandits den in the match postponed a few weeks ago when the rain curtailed proceedings after heat 2.
