Yes, Wolves' Leon Flint - and, with all due respect to Jack Smith, I reckon Wolves will be happier with the postponement than the Aces.

With Leon in the team – and the way he rides the NSS – I reckon Wolves would have had a much bigger chance of winning than with Jack.

Yes, they’re both ex-Colts, but Leon has already had a 15-point maximum in a National League match at the NSS this season. With the grippier conditions that there would have been had it gone ahead tonight, it would have suited his style of riding the NSS to a tee.

I admire the fact that Jack Smith keeps going. But I have to ask why do'es he?

I’d be very surprised if it was, lot of people and external companies involved to rearrange in few days.

It does drain well and if it stopped raining now it would be on if dry for couple of hours, but it’s not stopped raining all day and forecast till at least 7-8pm now.

The only bad day of the week, going to be warm and dry for the rest of the week with 24 degrees on Thursday.

I'm rather glad that Eurosport is part of my Sky package, as I'd have been pretty miffed if I had paid extra for it and then only got a few meetings for my money. I was equally upset the SEC wasn't on Eurosport, only the  Eurosport player which once again they wanted more money for!  Thanks to a link from Racers & Royals I watched it on a website for free.  I ditched BT Sport because they lost the coverage for league matches, and now only cover the GP's. The TV coverage seems to be getting worse, not better?

I won't speak His name. It's supposed to be sacrilege. :)

But if I were you, I'd addressed it care of St Peter. B)
