Newport Wasps have already rearranged their rained off two Premier Trophy speedway meetings with King's Lynn.

Wasps will travel to the Norfolk Arena on May 4 and a home leg will be staged 11 days later, the home league meeting with Rye House slotted in later in the year.

Wasps are approaching a hectic programme starting with an away meeting with Somerset in the Premier Trophy on Friday night. The return is at the Hayley Stadium on Sunday (tapes up 2.30pm) followed by meetings at Exeter (Monday) and the Isle of Wight on the following evening.

Tim Stone, Newport promoter, said "I am quite sure after an untimely amount of inactivity because of the rain the boys will not mind getting back into the swing of things. To have four meetings in the space of five days is, in the words of the Tom Jones' song, 'It's Not Unusual'."

l Lewis Dallaway's appearance in the Mavericks line-up for the Conference League meeting at Mildenhall on Sunday was his first competitive meeting.

Stone said "I think he did really well. I was very pleased for him because it was a good first meeting, especially at Mildenhall. Lewis is another rider who is a product of our winter training schools."

Dallaway, from the West Midlands, scored a paid four points from three rides, an injury keeping him out of his fourth. Team manager Peter Towersey said "He scored in every race he was in."

Dallaway missed his last scheduled ride when he bit the dust, avoiding teammate Sam Hurst in heat eight.

Towersey added "Sam went down and Lewis clipped the fence trying to avoid him. He tweaked the thumb on his right hand and couldn't control the throttle."

Maverick's next meeting is a week today at Stoke.

l Newport asset Carl Wilkinson was in sparkling form for Boston in their home Conference League clash with Weymouth on Sunday. He scored a full house from five rides which included a double points tactical ride giving him an 18 point return.

He took the tactical ride with Boston trailing by 10 points after heat 10. And in a thrilling recovery Boston won 48-45.

Cwmbran's Tom Brown, now a Stoke asset and riding on loan at Weymouth, scored nine points from five starts.

l Welshman Phil Morris is hoping to be back on track with new club Newcastle at Sheffield tomorrow night after a painful fall at Stoke on Saturday night.

Morris, from Cwmfelinfach, went to hospital, but checks revealed nothing was broken although he was in pain and suffered bruising so that he missed Sunday's home meeting with Edinburgh, his place in the Brough Park team taken by Scott Robson, the former Newcastle rider now at Workington.

Newcastle lost 45-44 at Stoke but triumphed 48-41 at home to Edinburgh.
