Will this beat the weather?

Heavy rain until this afternoon and then a dry forecast for tomorrow after early fog.

Makes me reminisce on the Brummie "pea soupers" we used to get when I was a kid. Fog was dense for days sometimes wouldn't clear at all.

Rain may be a relief to Track Staff might help in preparation.

Expecting James Shanes to miss this one now he’s picked up a wrist fracture at last weekends grass track.

James struggled a bit up at Armadale.

Well Grobauer rode for Landshut @ Rawicz on Saturday in the 2nd leg of the Play - Offs semis & completed his 4 programmed rides:rolleyes:

Looks like Tom Woolley for Monarchs in for Nathan Greaves.

No disrespect but that's not a great replacement when already using R/R for Anders Rowe.

So he will have to take 4 rides and Drew Kemp 7, unless we have to use a TS which could cut him down to 3 rides.

And Birmingham with R/R for James Shanes certainly strengthens then.

Looking like a big hill to climb - hope the track is in good nick.

What’s up with Rowe?

You can't have a TS in a 2 legged cup meeting

It's the league match - cup match is later in the month.

Got to say with Tom Woolley in for Nathan, Anders Rowe R/R, and the first time on the track for Kye, this will be an uphill battle for the Monarchs and they could struggle to reach the 38 points they require.
