A ORLOV 8,628 Posted April 21, 2018 I know Leicester is a strange track with home advantage but I would think Swindon should be able to keep any gap closer than 12 points, hopefully 6 or less. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
g13webb 4,254 Posted April 22, 2018 I have always been a fan of KB. and feel Leicester have acquired a more than adequate replacement for Vaculik. Immaculately turned out, with exceptional machinery, he is a ideal example of a true professional. An exceptional gater who wins more races than most, will add to Leicester's team strength. Grouping KB with King and Andersen makes the Lions formidable. I think Swindon have started well and have performed above expectations. I cant imagine anybody expected them to thrash Poole last week, so for that reason one has to assume they will push Leicester to the limit. It will be interesting to see how their reserves perform on a precise track. I also think this will be a close call, with Swindon getting at least a point. NB: I seem to remember last year Batchelor guested for Swindon and scored 12, 2 days later he rode there again for Lynn and scored 2. Same venue, same opposition, different mindset. ........... I wonder which one will turn up on Monday !!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
A ORLOV 8,628 Posted April 22, 2018 (edited) Swindon have R/R at number 2 for D Bellego who is attending the funeral of his grandmother, report states all riders apart from Nick are able to take an extra ride. http://swindonrobins.co/news.php?extend.3084 Edited April 22, 2018 by A ORLOV Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lisa-colette 6,024 Posted April 22, 2018 All Leicester need to do is keep one of the top 4 Swindon riders quiet, that should be enough to beat them as they have better reserves. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kurtz is at reserve not Newman, so probably not too much between them actually. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Robbobee 144 Posted April 22, 2018 Hopefully Kyle Newman is ok - withdrawn after 1 ride today in the Jon Armstrong Individual Meeting ??? Cheers Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Crazy robin 2,963 Posted April 22, 2018 (edited) 4 hours ago, stevethelion said: Kurtz is at reserve not Newman, so probably not too much between them actually. Really Kurtz is a 2nd string & Zach is a reserve like Sargent whilst Davey can’t even get a gig in the 2nd tier. Swindon have the weakest reserve pairing in the league & weaker with r/r. Leicester should win by at least 8 but then again I was way out in the Poole meeting. Edited April 22, 2018 by Crazy robin Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
thecoombdog 2,367 Posted April 23, 2018 Fancy us to get a point tonight. Leicester been unlucky with injuies and they look weaker to me now. Hopefully Ellis is fit after his smash on the grass yesterday. Gonna need the rest of the top 4 firing with RR Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
