Well done Batch.😎

They will certainly have plenty of meetings left to do that... Good planning on their part... If you want a run of fixtures close together, it is best to do it as the season ends, as the fan attendance momentum you build then lasts into the play offs... Ending your racing around the end of July/early August, even if you qualify for the play offs, will lose momentum with the fans... "See you in a month for the play offs" isn't a marketing person's dream..

A rider like Batch should be hitting double figures every week from reserve, deep down he is good enough to do it but as we all know its whether he can do it mentally.

I'm gonna be a bit of a "statto" here & point out they got 24 points from the heat leaders. Perhaps putting a second string at number 5 is why they don't get maby points from there? The inconsistency must be frustrating, I was thinking Jeppesen for Batchelor would be an improvement, then Batch scores double figures.

My guess is the club will re-look at things In August, when maybe some teams in Europe aren’t making playoffs etc and riders may be looking at more fixtures and money in August, September and October.

I think TMs are sometimes, understandably, a bit reluctant to throw someone in who hasn't been on track since heat 10. FWIW I would have gone for Thomson, but we never know what goes on behind the scenes and what the reasoning is for selections.

Ok good news

This will change

I was surprised Thomson didn't go out in heat 15. Maybe he didn't fancy it but a good team manager would ensure his riders always fancy it.

How he's an Oxford rider,unless they tapped him up illegally.

Could have been Kennett?

I too have enjoyed my visits to Brafield. The racing last night was excellent. Obviously a shame about the necessary track work but handled well by the track staff with informative announcements and the fan’s patience. Only 11 points between the three heat leaders is a big issue for the Foxes but I don’t suppose there is an easy fix at this time of the season. It’s a shame because the second strings and reserves are working very hard but without a big hitter it’s not enough to get those wins.

I expect the forum yo stay as it is with some changes to moderation.

Person ally, I hope this stay as is. With a few less intrusive adverts.

Berwick top of the league for call offs

Out of interest the Ford's said they were looking at someone to replace Bowes but the rider in the end couldn't commit anyone any idea who the mystery rider was ?

Hi Phil what's the score are there now two forum's running or is the idea to close this one down shortly and run everything through the new version ? (If i've got the wrong end of the stick Phil and its nowt to do with you apologies in advance).

Get on Rospiggarna to beat Piraterna by more than 2 tonight with Bet 365 at 11/10. It is the bet of the season !!

Sad to see no Isle of Wight pair in this event.

What is the new forum website address please?

This one went down for 3 or 4 days but obviously back up and running now, a member on here has started up a fresh forum so there's now 2 on the go, im signed up for both so'll see if people post on both or just on here as its back up and running again.

We've seen it with major social media platforms like Facebook and X on numerous occasions over recent times. Unfortunately the BSF can't turn things around in the same time frame as those platforms but they always get the job done eventually.
