ISLE OF WIGHT ISLANDERS 56 - NEWPORT HORNETS 38 National League Knock Out Cup Round One First Leg Despite a strong performance by their top two riders Todd Kurtz and Jay Herne at the Smallbrook Stadium, Ryde on Tuesday evening - the Hornets incurred an 18-point deficit which they will endeavour to overcome in the second leg at Queensway Meadows on Saturday afternoon from 4pm. What will help their cause is better fortune for James White-Williams who suffered an underperforming bike and a fall in four fruitless outings.

NEWPORT HORNETS: Todd Kurtz 16, Jay Herne 10 +1, Matt Bates 6, Tom Young 3, David Gough 3, James White-Williams 0, Richard Andrews 0
