IT’S a perfect 10 from 10 to start the season for Glasgow – after they overcame some early setbacks to run out comfortable winners away to Kent.
The Tigers lost Jack Smith to injury and twice found themselves penalised for tapes offences in the opening five heats.
The home team then bagged a 5-1 to put pressure on Cami Brown’s men.
But three maximums in four races gave Glasgow an unassailable lead, and they were eventual 51-39 victors.
That adds four points to the six they have already secured from their opening home matches in the SGB Championship.
Brown said: “I’m absolutely delighted. The track was very tricky and patchy to start with, but once it settled down we were by far the better team.
“Our slow start was purely down to the track, once it got sorted the results spoke for themselves.
“Jack has a bad gash in his arm so it’s hard to say how bad he is at the moment. He’s heading to hospital for an x-ray, so we’ll have to wait and see if he’ll be available for tomorrow’s trip to Birmingham.
“Broc Nicol was the start of the night dropping just one point to an opponent, and Sam Jensen was absolutely brilliant as well – despite having to ride seven times. A special mention for Justin Sedgmen, who popped out with two important wins. But everybody contributed, which was really good.
“We had some fans here too which was really nice to see.
“Tomorrow night will be a harder task, and everyone will need to step it up. Hopefully the track at Birmingham will have improved after last week’s call-off – I’m sure it will be better.”
