Arch Stanton 2,255 Posted April 18, 2023 (edited) https://ipswichwitches.co/raceday-preview-sheffield-premiership-r1-h/ Riss returns, Nicholls guests for Musielak. Good choice for Foxhall! Makes the meeting even more interesting. Edit: Should say that Witches are HOPING Riss returns having just read the preview. Taking it day by day with him.

Baldyman 6,243 Posted April 18, 2023 I would have said away win with Tobi riding,,, but since its now Scott,,, I'm gonna say very slim home win,, 46 to 44 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bruno 1,790 Posted April 18, 2023 Thinking of coming down from the Monmore area for this, looks like it could be a good one. Bit of rain about tho according to the beeb. What's local weather saying Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bald Bloke 3,287 Posted April 18, 2023 Tough one to predict this one. Best I can do is 4 points either way. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
szkocjasid 3,038 Posted April 18, 2023 I'd expect Ipswich to get 5-1s in heats 13&15, so can't see a Sheffield win here! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TTT 1,229 Posted April 18, 2023 Ipswich to win this one comfortably now, Would've given the edge to Sheffield if Musielak was riding but Nicholls is a big drop off from Tobi's scoring power imo. Ipswich 50 - 40 Sheffield Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Nicholls paid 14 at the end of last year at Foxhall, albeit at reserve. Nicholls has started the season very well and top scored for Oxford again last night away to Plymouth. He’ll be a threat tomorrow, pretty much always is at Foxhall. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
4BM 116 Posted April 19, 2023 52-38 home win for Ipswich, the Witches should be pumped up after a good win away at Leicester, can’t seen Doyle and Sayfutdinov dropping many if any points, King and Rew had decent ends to Monday night so that should help also with improved scores at home on the horizon for them, Riss or R/R if he/it picks up 6 you’d be happy. Reserves will take points off each other in the meeting but expect Hulme/Thompson to get 5/6 between them both . As for Sheffield everyone knows Holder doesn’t like the track so anything near double figures would be a bonus for the Tigers, no Musielak which is a bummer for them even with an in form Nicholls guesting I can’t see 10+ points and that’s what needed when covering Tobiasz, Ellis has been bang out of form so far this season (no speed) and can’t see that changing at Foxhall where he’s inconsistent at best, Howarth will do his job or 6/7 points, Bellego not ridden there for a few seasons so again if he gets 6/7 that’d be his average, Kerr could be a busy man at reserve if those in top 5 aren’t scoring as for Gilkes it’s just about track time and experience, with the team of 6 above him been set up as they have there’s no pressure on the lad, if he picks points off Thompson/Hulme that’s a bonus Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SPEEDY69 1,260 Posted April 19, 2023 Should be a straightforward home win with no-ne able to touch Doyle. Musielak didn't do well at Foxhall last season but Holder has had some success there. As others have said the Ellis/King match up should favour King. I predict a 51-39 win for the Witches. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
