Win win for the Trollmeister General.

Was it a dangerous track Skidder ?

Every track has an element of danger. Poole's had a 'couple of holes and ruts which have apparently been there for years' without stopping many many riders from racking up good scores.  The track has been well bladed and new shale put on as was evidenced in the curtailed meeting v BV last week.

Well if it’s not dangerous then it’s no surprise other riders rack up decent scores.

That’s where you fall down.  You let little things like facts get in the way.  If Shovvy says Master ain’t as good as Kurtz round Wimborne then that’s it.  It’s gospel:D

You would always prefer your own team thats for sure 

If Kurtz had been replaced by Thorssell for example then yes that is certainly weaker

I'm really surprised at all these visiting riders (guests or opponents) who put in such great scores previously on what was a supposedly 'dangerous' track?!  Quite Remarkable!!

 

PS. Covatti back by the 18th July latest!!

Well Masters does do ok at Poole

Poole could get the reserve changes wrong though and that could help Lynns chances

Did Masters not ride for Poole at some point?

I honestly dont know

Masters for Kurtz on the basis of how they usually go is not making a differance

If Poole get in weaker reserves than Covatti and NBJ thats a different story

Promotion ( personally ) for SS then? Or is he merely spreading the Good News of the gospels, rather than writing them?

Sam was another rider who slowly improved over the years. Just that one step off of being world class imo

Sam was definitely in the team in 2012. I presented him with a cheque from the Riders Equipment Fund and have a photo to prove it.:t:

Hope its a decent crowd as I'm hearing there will be a collection for Richie.

Why are we getting replacements for NBJ?  His 7-day medical note expires today and he's declared for Thursday.

I’d pretty much agree with that. Maybe that’s his level now or he will untap the next level as he has been a slow burner.
