BELLE VUE COLTS V KENT THURSDAY 01/ 08

Recommended Posts

Strong result from 3 rider Kent to pinch the win o the night despite choosing under performing guests with Wally who needs to do better as a championship rider and Barnes learnt the hard way that his equipment needs far greater investment and maintenance to get near this level. An off night for a few of the home side and Flint especially let the meeting slip away  but credit for all riders for completing all 15 races when higher leagues wouldn't have unpacked their vans and Jon Cook thinks this is an inferior product.

With all the rain prior to the start, it is a massive credit to firstly the track and secondly the riders and staff for getting the meeting on..

The same happened last year with the Stoke Match.

As I have said before , going to The NSS is like being in Speedway heaven.

Bickley, Kemp, Rowe & Flint all ride in the Championship and Palin will do so next season when he is 16.

I really like the look of Palin i would not mind betting in the Aces tradition that Bickley/Palin will line up together in the Aces team in the future.

Are you saying Wilson Dean is now a British Citizen?  I thought that was the reason he could no longer ride in the NL (no British passport).  Bailey has a British passport & is therefore British, probably dual nationality so can choose OZ or GB.

When Wilson dean was allowed to ride in the NL he also said he was committed to GB. However as soon as he had progressed beyond NL he didn't want to be from GB anymore. Just a loop hole I don't like.

He rode in the NL because his grandparent was British, that loop hole was closed the following season, to ride in the NL now you have to hold a British passport.   Maybe he can't commit to GB because he is not British?   Certainly if that is the case he would not compare to Bailey who is British.
