screm 8,057 Posted August 23, 2019 Slick and dusty me thinks, its going to be a nightmare to get any moisture into the track as Berwick rangers are at home so there will be no chance of watering from middle of the morning to just a couple of hours before racing starts. https://www.bbc.co.uk/weather/2655819 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

screm 8,057 Posted August 24, 2019 Birmingham`s Nick Agertoft has been ruled out of tonight's meeting, William Lawson comes in as a guest. Berwick will hit 60. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
topsoil 2,498 Posted August 24, 2019 Well they had to dig deep and did it without their top two riders (and with the captain still in a lot of pain after Wednesday night), but Berwick capped off an excellent eight days with another win. Dany Gapp and especially Jye did a lot of good work. Berwick continue to climb the table. Having seen him come through the NJL ranks I would like to see somebody give Josh Embleton a place in the National league to help his development. He didn't score tonight but also wasn't far off the pace. Jason Garrity always gives 100% and Adam Ellis showed how much he has improved in the past couple of years. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tellitasitis 90 Posted August 24, 2019 A very enjoyable meeting tonight with some close good racing Track wasn’t as dusty as I’d expected with football being on and a hot day Nasty crash in heat one which makes you think would Arron have walked away if it had been an air fence he hit at full speed Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bandit59 1,151 Posted August 25, 2019 Thought this would be a big win until the first bend of the first lap when Spud hit the fence, thought he was coming over the fence glad to see him walk away. Feared the worst after that but to a man (and a lad) they all pulled their weight, Kev having some gremlins as well. Never going to be a classic and Brummies enforced changes weakened them some good races from The Hero and Ellis, when Garrity on track its hard not to watch him, all in a very good team performance roll on next Saturday night.

screm 8,057 Posted August 25, 2019 Decent enough meeting and credit to the five Berwick riders for winning so comfortably. Great to see Aaron get up from his Ht1 crash, that was a frightening one and it was no surprise to see him with draw from the meeting. All Berwick riders contributed while Birmingham's main threat came from Adam Ellis and when he sat still at the start Tero Aarnio. Last night's win moves Berwick up one place in the league to eighth level on the same points with Scunthorpe. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
