Elkins EF 0 0 0
EF'd twice in Heat 2 and then finished 2 races
Clouting 2 1' 1 3 7+1 The
match winner with important passes of Hare/Dryml and a Heat 14 win
No heat details tonight as its late and the report generator isn't working.
A good meeting spoilt by a horrific 2nd half crash which left the Oxford
starting marshall with a compound fracture of the femur (thigh).
Unfortunately this will be the lasting memory of the night after a meeting
which Oxford dominated throughout but never seemed able to shake off the
Pirates who battled away and picked up points from the Cheetahs. Oxford lost
positions on numerous occasions but had the chances to win the meeting. All
too often Cheetahs held good positions and lost them generally to mistakes.
Oxford held an 8 point lead after 7 but as on Wednesday the tac sub produced
a 5-1 and clawed Poole back into it. After producing 6 of the first 8 heat
winners Oxford only had 2 more in the next 7 which swung the balance. The
Nicholls/Wiltshire race in Heat 10 was superb and Hamill's pass of both
Oxford riders in the last was even better. Oxford did hold a match winning
5-1 position in Heat 15 before Hamill passed both in one move and Nicholls
pipped Nilsen on the last lap.
Oxford should take heart from their performance over the 2 meetings, a few
weeks ago we would not have considered forcing Poole to a last heat decider,
OK so Hamill scored only 3 aty Poole but Todd only scored 5, so that
balances out and the advantage of a tac sub in each meeting benefited Poole.
Oxford have come a long way though and we had 5 race winners, Hare would
have had a paid win in Heat 2 other than a monumental cock up on the corner.
Things are looking up!
If this is to be Roman Povahzny's last meeting (and nothing has been said at
all tonight) then I would certainly like to wish him well wherever he ends
up. He has given superb entertainment in the short time he has been with
Oxford and has very quickly become a big favourite with the crowd.

Edinburgh Monarchs 51: Newcastle Diamonds 38
Premier National Trophy
Lothian Arena, Armadale
Friday 12th May 2000
Edinburgh secured their biggest win of the season and didn't really have to
break sweat to do so. Newcastle, who are usually the most dangerous
visitors at Armadale, never came into the meeting. It was a dull meeting
with processional racing. This was quite unlike the Berwick match of two
weeks back that produced a similar score.
Edinburgh started with three 5-1s and two 4-2s in the first six heats and
built up a 14-point lead that was never threatened. Newcastle capitalized
on a few lapses from the Monarchs side and used tactical substitutions to
give the scoreline a false air of respectability. Edinburgh riders won
twelve of the fifteen heats.
This win secured three points that returned them to third place in the
Northern Group and to keep alive their hopes of qualification.
Edinburgh introduced their new line-up with Ross Brady making his debut at
heat leader despite having a current average of just over four points!
David McAllan should have made his return but he was a late call-off and
Jon Swales stepped in using his brand new laydown. Newcastle were without
Jesper Olsen and Portugal-bound Grant MacDonald. Martin Dixon guested for
Olsen and rider replacement was used for MacDonald.
Stuart Swales won the toss and took gate position B using 1 and 3 in heat one.
Heat 1: Robert Eriksson, Bjarne Pedersen, Kevin Little, Will Beveridge [58.1]
Will Beveridge came in as rider replacement. Eriksson gated ahead of
Pedersen with Beveridge. Eriksson did his impression of a 'mobile chicane'
(copywrite Jan Steachmann) and only won by around a quarter of a lap!!!
Little managed to get past Beveridge but let it slip. Kevin passed a second
time and set off after Pedersen without seriously challenging him.
(4-2) (4-2)
Heat 2: Christian Henry, Jon Swales, Darren Pearson, Jamie Smith [60.7]
Christian Henry made the gate and was soon joined by Jon Swales who cut
inside Jamie Smith. The Monarchs' pair consolidated their lead and Smith
fell while chasing but restarted to finish. This was the first heat two 5-1
for Monarchs at Armadale this year. They used to claim maximums as of right
last year.
(5-1) (9-3)
Heat 3: Peter Carr, Blair Scott, Will Beveridge [59.2]
Stuart Swales fell on the second bend after missing the start and retired.
Peter Carr and Blair Scott swept ahead of Beveridge to take a 5-1. Blair
Scott looked slightly unsteady on the slippy track.
(5-1) (14-4)
Heat 4: Martin Dixon, Ross Brady, Jamie Smith, Christian Henry [60.1]
The Newcastle pair gated but Ross Brady forced his way past to lead by the
third bend. He showed his inexperience and allowed the wily Martin Dixon to
pass. Christian Henry missed the start and was never able to seriously
challenge Jamie Smith.
(2-4) (16-8)
Heat 5: Peter Carr, Bjarne Pedersen, Blair Scott, Darren Pearson [58.6]
Blair Scott made the start but Pedersen swept around the outside to hit the
front. Peter Carr produced a characteristic cut back to lead by the third
bend. Rider replacement Darren Pearson finished last.
(4-2) (20-10)
Heat 6: Robert Eriksson, Kevin Little, Martin Dixon, Darren Pearson [58.8]
Eriksson and Little gated ahead of Dixon for another maximum.
(5-1) (25-11)
Heat 7: Ross Brady, Stuart Swales, Jon Swales, Will Beveridge [59.6]
This was the best heat of the meeting. Ross Brady gated to win easily but
there was a great race behind him. Jon Swales missed the start but looking
impressive on his new bike, he carved his way through the field to pass
first cousin Stuart and then Beveridge. Stuart Swales managed to get past
his teammate and eventually passed Jon for second place.
(4-2) (29-13)
Heat 8: Kevin Little, Bjarne Pedersen, Christian Henry, Jamie Smith [58.4]
Bjarne Pedersen came in for rider replacement as a tactical substitute.
Kevin Little made the start and held off Pedersen without real problems.
Christian Henry chased Pedersen all the way.
(4-2) (33-15)
Heat 9: Peter Carr, Martin Dixon, Stuart Swales, Blair Scott [58.5]
Stuart Swales came in as a tactical substitute for Pearson. Dixon and
Swales were battling to stay ahead of Scott when Carr produced an
outrageous cut inside. He brushed Blair Scott aside and somehow beat Dixon
to the third bend. Blair missed out and was stuck at the back to produce
the first tied heat.
(3-3) (36-18)
Heat 10: Robert Eriksson, Stuart Swales, Will Beveridge, Jon Swales [58.9]
Kevin Little was excluded for tape touching and Jon Swales came in as a
replacement. Eriksson gated to win and tie the heat.
(3-3) (39-21)
Heat 11: Bjarne Pedersen, Christian Henry [60.1]
Ross Brady attempted to go round the outside but was pushed wide by rider
replacement Martin Dixon and into the second-bend fence. The referee to the
dismay of the Monarchs support excluded Brady from the re-run. It certainly
looked as if Dixon took Brady out and all four back would have been the
right decision. There was a huge roar when Dixon never got off the line in
the re-run. Christian Henry stayed with Pedersen all the way until he fell
on the third bend of the third lap. Spurred on by the crowd, Henry managed
to get up and limped home for two points.
(2-3) (41-24)
Heat 12: Peter Carr, Stuart Swales, Will Beveridge, Christian Henry [58.4]
Will Beveridge replaced Pearson as a tactical substitute. Carr missed the
start but went around the outside to lead. Christian Henry tried everything
to get out of last place.
(3-3) (44-27)
Heat 13: Ross Brady, Bjarne Pedersen, Martin Dixon, Jon Swales [59.6]
Eriksson had a clutch disintegrate on the line and touched the tapes as a
result. He was unable to come in on a 15m handicap and Jon Swales came in.
This really put the pressure on Brady but he went the long way around the
outside to head off Pedersen at the third band and held on for a great win.
(3-3) (47-30)
Heat 14: Martin Dixon, Will Beveridge, Blair Scott, Jon Swales [60.4]
Martin Dixon came in as a tactical substitute for Smith. The Newcastle
riders made the gate but Blair Scott appeared to have got past Beveridge on
a couple of occasions but Beveridge came back on the inside. Blair lost
ground trying to go wide and Jon Swales nearly pinched third place as a
result.
(1-5) (48-35)
Heat 15: Robert Eriksson, Bjarne Pedersen, Stuart Swales [58.9]
Carr started slowly and coasted to a halt on the back straight. Robert
Eriksson produced another stunning gate to win.
(3-3) (51-38)

Martin Dixon 3 1 2 R 1* 3 10+1
Darren Pearson 1 0 0 1
Jamie Smith 0 1 0 1
Peter Carr and Robert Eriksson were both dominant and neither was troubled
until hit by machine problems late on. Ross Brady made a confident start as
heat leader on the basis of his 1999 average despite indifferent form so
far. He won two heats including a stunning success in heat 13 and was
unlucky to be excluded in heat 11.
Kevin Little looked more like his old self and was only beaten on the track
by Pedersen before taping in his last ride. Blair Scott started well but
faded in his last two rides. Jon Swales also looked the part in his first
two rides but struggled thereafter in tough heats. Christian Henry always
looked competitive but will have been disappointed to finish behind Jamie
Smith in heat 4.
Pedersen and Dixon were the pick of the Newcastle team. Swales and
Beveridge consistently filled minor places but never threatened to win a
race. The absence of Jesper Olsen was obviously felt but Dixon turned out
to be a good choice as guest with a ten point haul so the poor show cannot
be blamed entirely on Jesper's absence. Grant MacDonald's four rides
produced only two points all from a tactical substitution. The structure of
the Newcastle team is all wrong with two heat leaders and three second
strings. This is currently being addressed by the promotion.

Newly promoted Nassjo lost a thriller to Karlstad, 47-49. The home team led
24-18 after heat 7, but trailed 36-42 after heat 13. Maximums form heats 14
and 15 put Nassjo two points ahead. But Karlstad hit back in the final race,
Robert Flis and Daniel Nermark scoring a 5-1 against Piotr Paluch and
Mariusz Staszewski. Karlstad tracked three riders from Elite League partners
Valsarna, but the best man was new Polish signing Flis, who collected 17
points.
