He chose to ride for Wolves this season so why let him practice so that he knows the track before they ride here? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
auntie doris 2,339 Posted July 5, 2019 They certainly need to sort gates 2-4 out. Robins were mostly outgated last night. Fantastic third from Perky in heat 14, just needs a quicker bike, as important as the stunning swoop from Doyley in last heat. The Ippo top 5 hardly won a heat but great reserves and strength in depth, definite top 2. How did Batch win rider of the night? One of the best meetings I've seen at The Abbey since 1968, can't beat speedway when it's like this, super entertainment Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

One of the best meetings I've seen at The Abbey since 1968, can't beat speedway when it's like this, super entertainment As i've said on here a few times, one of the best things about the new track is the fact that even if there isn't a pass in a race then at least its close racing. No pass in heat 14 but Perks hanging on from Heeps was vital. There were a few more like that as well as the stand out heats 3, 5 and 15. Hope they get those 3 uploaded on youtube asap!! 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Pinny 2,536 Posted July 10, 2019 The racing has def improved since the new shape. our 1999 meetings were superb and the year we had Puk, sadly most other years we werent much good there although i think we won the year we had Ash Jones. . Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

2ndbendbeerhut 1,781 Posted July 24, 2019 Nuts should not have made it so easy for Doyle to come round him. Sure if it was the other way round then Doyle wouldn't have been so kind.... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sure if it was the other way round then Doyle wouldn't have been so kind.... The problem is that the inside works lovely at the moment so he probably didn't know where to defend. Doyley certainly went a lot wider than anyone has for a long time at Blunsdon. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
