Recommended Posts

Well that was exciting, aren’t we meant to have racing & not just riding. Hopefully things improve but have my doubts.

You can see the advantage the away team have when conditions mess up the track. Under normal circumstances Swindon would not have got a heat advantage.

Not surprising to see the experienced man winning heat 2. Hopefully the boys just realise it’s only a race to the first turn at the moment. Paramount you get there first.

Expecting plenty of falls.

Expected at any track this wet.

Not pretty but what can you do, the weather is not going to get any better over the next twenty days, you can't just call everything off and hope for better weather at this time of year.

Going exactly the same way as Poole v Ipswich.

It’s as expected. The track conditions always favour the away side.

No surprises so far. Swindon’s to lose.

Terrible and a complete lottery at the moment. Gate or forget it.

Rubbish.  Rory gated in heat 3

I’d wager it could be any track with that amount of water in it and Claus would win it more often than not. He’s got years and years of experience over the other lads in that race, on all sorts of tracks. Hopefully going to pay dividends for Swindon tonight.

Becker is battling at least. Track could be raceable by heat 8-9.

Even Doyle being caught out. Ellis should have got the point though. So sloppy conditions.
