Workington Comets endured a miserable evening of speedway after being drubbed 64-28 away at Somerset last night.

SOMERSET 64 COMETS 28

Comets registered just a single race win all night as league leaders Somerset Rebels ran out comfortable victors.

Every single Rebels rider rode superbly, particularly guest Nicolai Klindt (13 points) and Nick Morris (14 points).

In contrast, not one Comets rider got into double figures, with both Josh Grajczonek and Ricky Wells top-scoring for Workington with eight points.

The match was a cagey affair to begin with and after the first two heats the scores were level at 6-6 following successive 3-3 scores.

But it was the Rebels who grabbed the first advantage courtesy of a 5-1 in heat three. Klindt sprung into the lead from the tapes and team-mate Charles Wright went past Comets pair Mason Campton and Wells on the outside of the opening turn.

Comets went further behind in heat five due to another excellent 5-1 for the Rebels to extend their lead to 19-11.

It was again the combo of Klindt followed by Wright who secured the points for Somerset. Comets No 1 Grajczonek battled throughout the race to try to pass Wright but to no avail.
