Back to the 6 pm start time this Saturday and another tough test for the Comets with the visit of the Oxford Cheetahs.

The Cheetahs team is spearheaded by Heat leaders Sam Masters and Anders Rowe and at the time of writing the Oxford side are still missing Erik Riss because of illness but the team still pose a threat with Luke Killeen and reserves Dayle Wood and Darryl Ritchings.

 

For the Comets we are still waiting for the return of our own injured riders in Craig Cook and Vinnie Foord.

The return of the cookie monster ( if fully fit 🤔 ) could tip this meeting in the favour of the Comets, more so if Killeen is out injured. Also could have a chance of beating the tiggers on Friday, the Comets have ridden well at ashfield in previous years and the tiggers are having a few close meetings at home , or even getting beat

Not sure you will have any chance of a win at Glasgow but Oxford at home should be a walk in the park.

Depends on how fit cookie is and whether Batchelor turns up.

Expect Jeppesen to be good value and tate will be amongst the points. 

If we get those 4 firing, we should keep it close.

The uncertainties are obviously Perry, simpson and jakobsen.

Yes massively impressed by Jeppersen when he guested for Poole at Glasgow so should be a good one.

Very poor Oxford side listed for Edinburgh, but unfortunately they have better guests on Saturday, with sedgman for riss , cairns for Killeen and mcdiamort back from his trip to Poland 

Cairns and Mcdiarmid will obviously make it interesting.

Sedgeman, although he seems a different rider this season, has never performed fantastically around northside (i dont think)

Honestly can't see many Oxford fans travelling for the 2 meetings especially after seeing the side put out at Edinburgh 2morrow. Imo taking the fans of both sides for granted with that side, so won't be much booiing, as Poole are not riding 😜
