Speedway Photos?!

There's a new picture from Oxford v Poole on my signature. Bob Kilby in the lead, but can anyone recognise who is behind him?

Absolutely no idea so I'll have a complete and utter guess - Pete Smith?

Still some gaps to plug, I'm afraid, but here goes...

 

Bent Rasmussen/David Gagen ------ Alan Wilkinson

???/Keith Bloxsome --------- Keith Bloxsome again

Finn Jensen ------- Neil Collins (inside)/????

Dave Jessup -------- ???

John Louis ---------- ???

Cradley rider is NOT Carter ----- ???

??? ------- Billy Sanders

 

3rd down left, I think is Finn Jensen, also same rider is pictured 3rd down on right, and outside him could be Ian Clarke. Cradley rider is most certainly not Kenny Carter.

 

Bottom left is Ivan Mauger

Is the Cradley picture an early shot of Bruce Penhall 1978?

I do not know who the Leicester riders are JC and I am not sure about the Cradley rider. I contacted the Cradley fans forum and they say it could be a very early shot of Erik Gundersen but they cannot be certain. I thought it might be Kenny Carter as the build looks about right and he was also wearing the full face helmet. Also, I am sure he was in that meeting. On reflection though I think it must be Erik Gundersen, but like I said, that it cannot be verified by the Cradley people as yet.

 

I have included one of Ole Olsen who won the meeting which was a four team or individual event in case if it jog's anyones memory.

 

Bottom left is a Mauger look alike but it is in fact John Davis and the bottom right is Billy Sanders. Wish I could get the Cradley rider positively id though :D
