Stevie Worrall will miss the Scotwaste Monarchs vital away match at Rye House tonight following his heat three crash at Armadale last night.

Stevie crashed very awkwardly on the apex of turns three and four with his bike flying over the fence. After being checked over by the paramedic he was withdrawn from the meeting with pain in his neck, shoulder, chest and back. Unfortunately on Saturday morning Stevie felt even worse.

He said, "I think someone broke into my house last night and roughed me up a bit. I'm feeling a bit on the tender side." We, naturally, wish Stevie a speedy recovery but for tonight at Rye House rider replacement will cover. With Stevie second in our averages that gives every rider the chance of an additional ride.

The Rockets have been having an indifferent season but have been having a good week with a big home win over Peterborough and their first away league point at Redcar. Nikki Barrett replaces the injured Jason Bunyan and use rider replacement for Anderson Mellgren. Edward Kennett, Jason Garrity and Steve Boxall have all been on good form recently.

Although all eyes will be on Somerset's final away league match at Workington this evening it seems certain that only a win will be good enough for the Scotwaste Monarchs tonight.
