Workington manager James Denham says the Comets won’t get carried away by their impressive start to life in the Cab Direct Championship at Northside.
Denham said: “Like I’ve said before it’s fantastic we are doing so well this year in the league with some excellent results, but the ultimate aim is the play-offs.
“We’re taking nothing for granted and our riders are taking it on a meeting-by-meeting basis with aiming of getting a good result and league points.”
The next target will be Saturday when Scunthorpe Scorpions are the visitors to Northside, and Denham is hoping that young Australian star Tate Zischke will be fit to ride.
After a crash in Poland last week he would have missed last Saturday’s clash with Plymouth Gladiators if that had gone ahead.
Denham said: “Tate is back in the UK but is still very sore and will have a late fitness test ahead pof Saturday’s meeting.
“We will be without Celina (Liebmann) because of commitments in the FIM women’s championship and we have booked Jake Mulford of Redcar as a reserve replacement.
“Our former rider Luke Harrison won’t be available for Scunthorpe due to Under-19s commitments.”
