PREVIEW: KENT v PLYMOUTH (NDT)

KENT and Plymouth clash at Iwade in the National Development Trophy today (Sunday) with the visitors racing in the competition for the first time this season.

The Eagles won their home opener against Leicester nine weeks ago, although they did enjoy more recent track time with their victory over Thurrock Hammers in a challenge.

Luke Harris makes his debut for the hosts after joining as a replacement for the injured Charlie Wood, whilst the Centurions operate rider replacement for Kai Ward whose WSRA NDL fixture for Middlesbrough takes priority. Mickie Simpson guests for Matt Marson.

Eagles co-owner Michael Gray said: “It has certainly been a good few weeks since our opening meeting against Leicester.

“However, all the lads will be relishing the opportunity to go back to the important business of piling up National Development Trophy points.

“We surely have another hotly contested match in store, and we hope that once again the crowds will turn out in their numbers to help cheer the Eagles to victory.”

KENT: Nathan Ablitt, Luke Harris, Vinnie Foord, Jacob Clouting, Ben Morley, Jamie Etherington, Nathan Hargrave.

PLYMOUTH: Joe Thompson, Mickie Simpson, Kai Ward r/r, Morgan Williams, Ben Trigger, Ryan Ingram, Charlie Southwick.

SCB Referee: Paul Carrington
