Cab Direct Championship
CHEETAHS COMEBACK STUNS BEARS
OXFORD pulled off a dramatic comeback to secure a 47-43 win at Redcar in Group B of the Cab Direct Championship play-offs.
The Bears dealt with conditions best in the early stages after a heavy downpour and moved into a 14-point lead after just six races – but the Cheetahs then hit back with an incredible hat-trick of 5-1s.
They keep their momentum and led by four points heading into the last race which was won by Danny King, but with partner Danyon Hume falling an away win was confirmed which could prove pivotal in the group.
Sam Masters (12+1) and Scott Nicholls (11+1) top scored for the Cheetahs with Danny King scoring 10+1 for the Bears and reserve Jason Edwards notched 10.
