NEWPORT: HORNETS V ISLE OF WIGHT (NL) - PREVIEW

 

WEDNESDAY AUGUST 18, 2010

Already progressing through the National League KO Cup competition and currently top of the National League table the Newport Hornets continue their quest to bring silverware to Queensway Meadows when they race the Isle of Wight Islanders in the National Trophy competition on Sunday afternoon with tapes up at 2.30pm.

 

The Hornets will race the independent speedway clubs Plymouth, Weymouth, Buxton and the Isle of Wight at home and away in the National Trophy as the season moves to a busy climax with Sunday's vsitors having strengthened their team in the past few weeks with the acquisition of ex-Premier League rider Lee Smethills and GB Under-21 international squad member Paul Starke. Already in their ranks they have ex-Newport Wasp Nick Simmons, ex-Newport Maverick Danny Warwick plus veteran Dean Felton in a reserve berth.

 

The Hornets will see Kyle Newman back in the ranks following his being withdrawn by the medical staff last Sunday after hitting his head in a heavy crash with team-mate Tom Young. Local lad Young from nearby Lliswerry was taken to the Royal Gwent Hospital with suspected broken ribs but discharged himself the same evening. Although a place has been left blank in the line up in case he is fit to ride this is unlikely and Newport have lined up an experienced rider to cover should the circumstances require it.
