Workington Comets 43 Edinburgh 50: Edinburgh Monarchs heaped more misery on Workington Comets after beating them for the second time in just 24 hours with a 50-43 victory at Derwent Park.

Comets endured a torrid evening in Scotland on Friday when they were beaten 55-38 by Edinburgh and the Monarchs claimed the double when they took four points away from Workington on Saturday night.

Comets captain Rene Bach scored the most points on the night, with 14, and Josh Grajczonek impressed with 11 points from five races.

But it turned out to be a battle of the reserves, with Edinburgh reserve pair Steve Worrall and Justin Sedgmen out-riding and out-scoring Workingtons Chris Mills and Ashley Morris.

Worrall was on top of his game and recorded 13 points from seven races, with Sedgmen claiming six points.

Whereas, Mills endured an evening of mechanical problems with his bike and picked up zero points, and Morris could only muster four points.

But the evening got off to a great start for Comets with a 4-2 win in the opening race.

Grajczonek was fastest out of the gate with team-mate Mason Campton hot on his heels, but former Comet Craig Cook overtook Campton on the third lap.
