Top scorer The Monarchs remain undefeated this season. The Tigers started well and were leading at the half way stage despite Ty Proctor being fenced by Sam Masters in his first ride. Ty's made a terrible start to his second ride and lost further ground when he went out wide. Switching to the inside he passed Simon Neilsen on the second lap but made no impression on Max Fricke and lost further ground went he tried the wide line again. How come visiting Aussies who have never seen the place adapt so quickly when Ty hasn't the faintest idea. I suppose it took Ricky Wells 2 years to learn the track, perhaps it's just a Wolverhampton thing. Note to the management; No more Wolverhampton hand-me-downs thank you.

Simon Nielsen looked good passing the Monarchs pair to win heat 2, as did Andre who held off a stern challenge from Max  Fricke in heat 3. Leigh had a couple of spirited second places but never looked like winning while the less said the better about the rest of the team.

If they gate like they did tonight at Brough Park on Sunday the Diamonds will be in for another bumper pay day
