It's April 25th. This is Edinburgh News today, powered by AI. Edinburgh monarchs bowed out of the knockout cup after tying red car bears 45-45, but that 12.1 leg deficit proved too. Steve to overcome. Skipper Paco Castagna took a nasty spill in Heat 3. Crashing out along with teammates, Justin Sedgman and opponent Jordan Jenkins. The wreck happened when Jenkins blocked Castagna on the inside bend, sending the captain flying over the air fence with what looks like ankle. Injuries. Writer replacement filled in but only scored 4 points, nowhere near enough to rally. Kai Thompson stepped up big, nabbing 13 plus 1 with slick overtakes, while Dan Thompson and Sedgman combined for solid halls. Still, the backup struggled, and wrecked cars young guns like Ace Piper and Jason Edwards held firm despite fewer heat wins. For in Glasgow, the Tigers edged Plymouth Gladiators 47-43 in their MaxiCab KO Cup quarter
