Adults/kids with work/school has never held Poole or plenty of other midweek tracks back.

Do they offer any GF or vegan options for example? If not, then it's perfectly reasonable for anyone on a special diet to bring their own.

I'll stick with Exeter as Crumpie himself said if it was held there he'd win and also it's the only example so far of a rider not on his home track.

Phil Crump if it was at Exeter.

And his relationship with 'Moley'.

That apostrophe in Shanes is superfluous. I've seen others do likewise and am curious as to why. -
