TIGERS HEAD FOR ROCKETS CLASH

Friday June 22, 2007
TABLE toppers Sheffield look to build on their excellent start to the Premier League season when they go to Rye House on Saturday (7pm).

The Owlerton side will need to show a vast improvement on past Hoddesdon form as the Hertfordshire track has traditionally been tough on Neil Machin's men.

Machin said: "We're in good shape after the meetings we've raced so far, but we know we have to go to places like Rye House and put on a good show.

"Rye House themselves are expected to be up there challening for the title at the end of the season but at this stage the priority for teams is to get into the top four and a play-off place."

Tigers are at full strength and the Rockets include Owlerton asset Robbie Kessler who recently joined the club as a replacement for Ray Morton. Lakesides's Leigh Lanham makes a guest appearance in place of the injured Tai Woffinden, who broke his wrist at Birmingham earlier this month.

RYE HOUSE: Chris Neath, Robbie Kessler, Leigh Lanham, Tommy Allen, Steve Boxall, Luke Bowen, Adam Roynon.
SHEFFIELD: Ricky Ashworth, Ben Wilson, Andre Compton, Paul Cooper, Joel Parsons, James Birkinshaw, James Cockle.
