What forecast are you looking at Steve, its raining from 0400 & the track is already sodden! Cant believe Somerset isnt off yet- lon long odds on it will be Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Steve Shovlar 10,439 Posted March 29, 2018 Latest met office. It has the rain coming in for the afternoon. Originally the heavy stuff was earlier but they are predicting it will be further west now. all immaterial anyway as the call has been made. Don’t hold out any hope for tomorrow night.

Trackrat 440 Posted March 29, 2018 Think Poole pulled the plug after seeing Somerset put in a decent performance at Leicester. They will be hoping to fit them in later in the season when the Somerset riders are not available so riding against a patched up team. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Aroundtheboards 264 Posted March 29, 2018 Hasn't rained in BOS now for 4hrs, still think it's a long shot if it's on ! We've got Tungate in for Lawson. That could make it interesting. Hope the weather gods shine on us all. Have good season Poole, when it starts, eh !!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
