Despite a superb effort by guest Jason Lyons at Wolves, the end result was a disappointment for JT/FOX Oxford Cheetahs who suffered most of the bad luck that was going.
Ales Dryml followed up his two wins at Belle Vue with another in heat two in Monday's meeting at Monmore.
The trouble is, brother Lukas is going the other way when it looked as though he would be the better of the pair.
Cheetahs move on to Peterborough's East of England Showground tomorrow night, when they will be out to prevent the Panthers taking the bonus point, having already won at Cowley. Coventry supremo Greg Hancock will be missing for the Bees against Cheetahs on Saturday. Good news for Oxford? Perhaps not - Chris Louis is the guest replacement!
The Bees also have Lee Richardson back in action after a kidney infection, and are about to sign a replacement for the injured George Stancl.
