Craig Cook crashed out, Andrew Tully got going after a slow start and old favourite Ryan Fisher won the meeting at the traditional post-GP Welsh Open yesterday.

Craig Cook and Andrew Tully both had their moments, though not really at the same time, as the Scotwaste Monarchs went out at the qualifying stage in the rain-affected Premier Pairs.

Andrew Tully and Craig Cook will attempt to improve on the Scotwaste Monarchs' poor recent record in the Premier Pairs when they race at Somerset on Friday evening, in front of what is sure to be a good crowd.

Only a month ago Monarchs beat this Friday's visitors to the Scotwaste Arena at 7.30 by 20 points in the KO Cup second leg, but Sheffield Tigers have shuffled the pack since then and they look a very different prospect this time around in a Premier League match.

The Scotwaste Monarchs gained all three points against Sheffield, which was an excellent achievement considering the way the enforced team changes on both sides seemed to work against them. It took a great deal of determination from the team's main scorers.
