Islander15 1,065 Posted April 21, 2017 That could make them stronger away from home too Yeah it may well do but weakens them at home if he's still missing on Sunday. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
screm 8,069 Posted April 21, 2017 No problems weather wise tomorrow so we`re all good to go. http://www.bbc.co.uk/weather/2655819 I still cant see anything other than a home win, Berwick are just stronger than Scunthorpe, end of. Yes the inclusion of Riss at reserve is a good move, and yes Scunthorpe put in a good performance last Saturday at Workington but I dont see them repeating that tomorrow night.

screm 8,069 Posted April 22, 2017 Cloudy but dry start to this race day, and forecast to stay that way. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
topsoil 2,498 Posted April 22, 2017 Another tight one in prospect tonight I reckon. On paper you would think Berwick have the upper hand amongst heat leaders, Bridger and Vissing should score well tonight. Scunthorpe have a bit of depth about them though, Michael Palm Toft is a cracking rider and Carl Wilkinson has been round Shielfield enough times to know the quickest route. Bringing in Mark Riss will also help Scunthorpe, he scored well for Edinburgh a couple of weeks ago. Forecast for a decent day, rain yesterday but I think that might have helped the track as we've never had any for a while. There will no doubt be a drop off in crowd levels tonight as Scunthorpe, understandably, won't bring nearly as many travelling fans as Edinburgh or Glasgow. Hopefully the racing will be up to the standard it's been so far this season. Here's to the first win of the season. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

lucifer sam 3,955 Posted April 22, 2017 What happened to Riss? and what is the rules on 7 day rule? As Perry was here last week? I'm unsure on it Rule was amended a few years ago. Now only refers to guest performances i.e. rider can ride for his own team, then guest 7 days later. BUT he can't guest at the same track two weeks running. Unless it's for the Home No 1.
