bigcatdiary 3,156 Posted April 1, 2019 First senior match of the season and one I should think is eagerly awaited. After the past few weeks of changes it will be nice to see some action on a rejuvenated track that looks the part following press and practice. PETERBOROUGH: Rohan Tungate, Lasse Bjerre, Bradley Wilson-Dean, Charles Wright, Hans Andersen, Aaron Summers, Ben Barker.BELLE VUE: Max Fricke, Steve Worrall, Dan Bewley, Ricky Wells, Kenneth Bjerre, Dimitri Berge, Jaimon Lidsey.

89buttons 749 Posted April 1, 2019 An awful lot of ifs, buts and maybes with this one.... had cook still been in home win for sure, now could be a surprise early away win depending on how the Belle Vue away boys coming off of injury are in their first meetings! Peterborough always a fair track tho so either way a good meeting in store think I’ll go for a home 46-44 win with hans getting it done in ht15 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ouch 1,189 Posted April 1, 2019 I see this as part of The Aces rehabilitation process. Any team meeting us early doors should fill their boots. Easy home win. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ShrewsburyWolf 22 Posted April 1, 2019 Decent reserve pairing for Peterborough could well be the difference here. What are the rules in this comp this year surrounding tactical subs? Is this in place ? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Aces51 2,777 Posted April 1, 2019 (edited) Much will depend on how Dan copes with his first competitive racing since his serious injuries. There's no pressure on him in these early season meetings, far better that he eases himself in if that is what he needs. I don't know how Wells usually performs at the EOS and Lidsey is not only facing his first UK meeting but against a very strong reserve pairing. If they all do well a good away win but hopefully an exciting meeting whatever the result. Edited April 1, 2019 by Aces51 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
foreverblue 6,055 Posted April 1, 2019 Probably close but I would think a Belle Vue win is on the cards. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
stevebrum 6,819 Posted April 1, 2019 Away win looks on the cards to me, unless Summers can add double figures to his scorechart. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bald Bloke 3,281 Posted April 1, 2019 (edited) . Close home win for me. With BV closing the gap in the later heats. Bjerre and Fricke should score well, as will Hans for the Panthers. Ht's 13 and 15 should be good ones for the Aces.But the Panthers reserves should be too strong I think. Add to that Bewley is a concern and will surely be thinking safety first at this stage of the season Main thing at this stage is that all riders come away fit and healthy. I didn't realise it was the old 13 heat formula..Ooops Cheers Rob Close home win still stands Edited April 1, 2019 by Bald Bloke cocked it up Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
