Skidder1 7,637 Posted October 11, 2022 Somewhat unexpected choice is Kye?!! 6.60 average and only managed 4+1 for Edinburgh's visit to Poole. Still I guess it depends on who is available keen?! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Steve Shovlar 10,439 Posted October 11, 2022 A shame. I enjoy watching Charles Wright racing here. Result a foregone conclusion though. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Still I guess it depends on who is available keen?! Quite short notice I guess! Thought they might be able to get Hans, seeing as he is at Plymouth tonight. But might have other plans.

Biffa 84 Posted October 11, 2022 Could be putting himself in the shop window for next year. Possibly no Edinburgh, team average reductions rumoured, 6.6 average and riding in a cup final. Nothing to lose for Kye IMO 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Skidder1 7,637 Posted October 12, 2022 (edited) Race day update at noon - weather is fine and sunny but will be v cold this evening, even though the huge crowd should keep everyone warm! Maybe a slight passing shower later but shouldn't be a problem. Edited October 12, 2022 by Skidder1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If the racing is good which it has been on a good racetrack, then any winning score is a good one. At least there shouldn't be a catalogue of 'offs' on the first bend as at Redcar!!!
