Bewley tonight again gets circa 30% of their points on his own.. Maybe Kurtz at a push could ride with him... A one man team... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bruiser 120 Posted August 30, 2021 (edited) Bewley and Kurtz excellent for Belle Vue apart from the dreaded gate 3 ride….You couldn’t really ask more from Charles Wright and Brennan tried hard but you cannot have 2 of the top 5 perform like Worrall and Etheridge when you haven’t got a race winning reserve and expect to win matches Edited August 30, 2021 by Bruiser Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Steve Shovlar 10,439 Posted August 30, 2021 Pretty poor meeting sad to say in front of a decent crowd. Usual Monmore fodder with lesser quality riders dialled in and beating visiting riders of a higher calibre. Trick track. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Garry1603 353 Posted August 30, 2021 I thought that Charles Wright had a decent day (especially at home). Seems to have taken his time to recover his form but I think he's getting there. Bewley, Kurtz and Brennan tried hard, but the rest were woeful. What has happened to Steve Worrall? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Pity they chose this as the TV meeting then.. On a track that generally doesnt deliver great racing.. The meeting this morning was good. Pearson didn't need any spin, they should have shown more of it. Monmore can produce good racing but you need riders who can ride it, such riders are dwindling fast as the bikes get quicker and emphasis is on Poland is the place to be. Except for the current Wolves septet all the others I'd put in that category currently ride for Peterborough. Kurtz was much better than I expected tonight, thought he'd ride it like Batchelor does(n't). 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

He’s not had a bad meeting for Poole this season. Hopefully that will continue on Wednesday. Schlein has been the worry and has had a dip the last month. Priority on winning a title this season is my guess. Let’s be honest it’s a 2 horse race in the premier league.

He was fine yesterday! He said he was struggling for power at BV when they interviewed him at Wolves. Wolves is a hard track to ride, maybe he is feeling the pressure too much and isn't he captain as well? More pressure when you're struggling. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
OGT 612 Posted August 30, 2021 I have to say, Brady Kurtz's fuel cap is a lovely shade of blue. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Maybe you're right and the captaincy is weighing a little heavy on his shoulders for BV. He's certainly struggling at the moment for the Aces, if not elsewhere.
