Nathan Greaves <\/p>\n
The 17-year-old reserve will ride at No6 in a bid to earn one of nine places up for grabs in the final at Coventry on Tuesday week. <\/p>\n
Comets asset Paul Bowen is due to ride at number eight for Workington on Sunday in Greaves absence. <\/p>\n
Fans got their first chance to see 25-year-old Bowen in action around the Zebra Claims Stadium, formerly known as Derwent Park, at the clubs annual press and practice day last month. <\/p>\n
A former Moto-X rider, Bowen came to the attention of the Comets management after turning his hand to speedway and putting in several sterling performances while riding for Workington Meteors at Northside speedway training track. <\/p>\n
He secured a place at National League side Buxton late last season and he has been signed up by the Hitmen for this year. <\/p>\n
Comets No5 Kyle Howarth has already been seeded in the final, where his competition for the title will include ex-Workington rider Ashley Morris. <\/p>\n
