BUXTON ‘Ductair’ Bulls make the trip to the Hydroscand Arena, Beaumont Park in the WSRA National League to face the Leicester Lion Cubs on Sunday afternoon, 3 pm.

The Bulls have already lost home and away in challenge fixtures earlier in the season, but since those fixtures, they have welcomed back skipper Jack Smith, who missed the two matches plus Jack Roberts has linked up with the Bulls and has started his return well with some impressive scores.

The home side welcomes back Tom Spencer, who missed the two previous fixtures, while the Lion Cubs will be missing Max Perry, who is on SGP 2 duty with the home side utilising rider replacement to cover, with everyone bar veteran racer Ben Morley able to take his rides. Morley leads the Lion Cubs into action and will have good support from Freddy Hodder and Ryan Ingram. Spencer will give good back-up, along with Seth Norman and Eli Meadows, completing the Cub line-up.

Ductair Bulls team manager Laurence Rogers said, “We are going with the intentions of putting in a strong performance, and hopefully we can keep things tight.

“Leicester are a very strong team and we will need to be at our very best, we have Jack (Smith) back in the line-up after he missed the challenge fixture here earlier in the season and of course Jack (Roberts) has joined us since the last meeting here and is scoring well at reserve so we are stronger than we were earlier in the season and look forward to putting on a better display for our supporters.”
