Redcar SG Petch Bears have today been boosted by the news Jason Garrity has declared himself fit for the local derby against Newcastle on Thursday night. An X-ray has revealed no broken bones in his hand and he will take his place at number 1. Ellis Perks will miss the meeting as he is riding for Rye House, ex Bears number 1 Ulrich Ostergaard will guest in his place.

Charles Wright has been ruled out for 9 days after suffering suspected concussion against Edinburgh on Friday night, rider replacement will operate in his place. As Charles has now moved into number 2 in the averages, any rider will be able to take his rides. Danny Ayres will have a late fitness test, if he is unable to take his place then Liam Carr will guest for him.

A full meeting preview, including thoughts from Bears manager Jitendra Duffill, will be on site tomorrow.
