Rory has been excellent lately so i would expect double figures from him, unlikely to beat Craig Cook but got a good chance against the others, i would think 9-10 from him.Danny and Steve have been very consistent too so i would expect all our heat leaders to go well. Never been to Glasgow but looks a similar track to Poole.

Corners are probably a bit wider than Poole, but other than that pretty similar.

 

For us I think all going to depend if nowak can score in the away leg. Looked like an NL wobbler both away matches he's raced so far

Reportedly, Ashfield also doesn't have horrendous bumps in it as per the one you're comparing with allegedly or so they say.

Just generally.  Have heard that mentioned a number of times over the years in match reports etc, and also on a televised match (BT Sport or Eurosport) where they mentioned parts of the track to avoid and/or couldn't be raced full throttle on.  All/any of it secondhand info hence "reportedly" and "allegedly".  All tracks have imperfections, 3rd bend Ashfield was sorted out during the covid shutdown and break last year.

Like I've said it's a lot better now,  but it doesn't matter which track you talk about you can get them better and you never stop learning doing tracks eg new shale bikes ect.

Poole track is in the best condition it has been in for a long while. Smooth and allowing for plenty of passing.

I doubt any Polish rider would struggle at Poole, I am expecting him to go well at both meetings but whether he can beat Basso consistently is another question.
