The Stellar Monarchs successfully defeated Oxford after a match which was tight for much of the night, and once again Victor Palovaara had much to do with the win, scoring 20 points in his last match at reserve. Incoming signing Michael Palm Toft made a pretty satisfactory start with 5 points having had no bike action since last summer.

The Stellar Monarchs welcome Danish rider Michael Palm Toft to their side this Friday night as they attempt to get Championship points on the board when they face Oxford Cheetahs led by Sam Masters, the former Monarch who had so much success in our colours.

Stellar Monarchs wish to formally thank all who backed the renewal of the air fence at Armadale Stadium for the 2025 season.

They did extremely well yesterday at Leicester but today at the National Speedway Stadium, Belle Vue, Lewis and Callum Hague went through the card in their sections of the British Youth Championship.

There was double joy today for the Hague family and the Monarchs Academy as both Lewis and Callum Hague won their classes in the British Youth Championship at Leicester. All our riders scored points on a successful day.

Young riders from the Monarchs Academy take to the track today down at Leicester in the first leg of the British Youth Championship, starting at 5pm.

The Stellar Monarchs made a powerful start to tonight's KO Cup tie and were ten ahead after just four heats, so they may be a little disappointed to have only gained an 8-point advantage (49-41) in the end. Victor Palovaara was again responsible for a large percentage of Monarchs points - 20 this week – but the home side had only a single race winner in the heats Victor did not appear in.

The Stellar Monarchs comfortably saw off the Workington Comets in the first round of the Championship Knockout Cup last weekend, and with very little delay they now face up to a potentially tougher hurdle in the Quarter Final, against Glasgow on Friday at Armadale and Saturday afternoon at Ashfield.

Stellar Monarchs will soon be back to full strength and delighted to welcome 34-year-old Danish racer Michael Palm Toft into the side, the former Scunthorpe man replacing the recently departed Oskar Polis.

Stellar Monarchs will renew British Speedway's biggest rivalry against Glasgow Tigers this Friday at Armadale Stadium - and this time the stakes are higher with the biggest match of the season so far in the MAXiCab Knock Out Cup Quarter Final!
