Oxford’s Comeback Against Danish Star | Edinburgh News

Oxford’s Jack Smith delivered a standout performance with ten points, stepping up alongside Danish rider Peter Kildemand—who scored eleven—to keep the home team competitive. While Sam Masters and Mitch McDiarmid were the only locals to outscore Kildemand, Masters’ three early heat wins kept Oxford ahead by eighteen after seven heats. A pivotal tactical switch in heat nine, pairing Masters with Anders Rowe for a 5-1 victory, ignited the team’s momentum. Kildemand ultimately edged Masters in the final race, narrowly denying the Aussie a perfect score for the third time at this track. Despite clawing back late, Oxford’s road performance remains inconsistent—they’ve struggled to match their home form, with the team manager admitting they owe fans a better showing after a crushing 28-point loss in their first BSN semi-final leg.
