Will be with my young daughter who has never been to a speedway meeting away from Poole. If she is not very tall I would edge towards the area on bend 1 without a roof.

Redcar have got NO chance of finishing top! Oxford/Glasgow/Poole are the favourites! King is riding as a guest because he's the best available option!

I find bend 4 (steps) the best vantage point! albeit a bit 'cozy' at times and sunglasses are needed if the weather is kind! P.s Forecast looks good for this evening!

I think I'm right in saying that out of the 14 riders. 9 have ridden for, or are riding for, Leicester, and you've got our manager as well.

GiveusaB 1,145 Posted July 19, 2023 I think the spectator viewing is fabulous at Leicester! If B'ham do fold, I would be tempted to travel and get my fix there! 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Danny's a competitor and I'm sure he'll be going all out to beat Lawson and co. Zach Cook is the pick of the Poole team for me...he looked great when guesting earlier in the season.

Skidder1 7,637 Posted July 19, 2023 (edited) OK so I'll stick my neck out a little for this one and suggest it will be a lot easier than many predict! Edited July 19, 2023 by Skidder1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GiveusaB 1,145 Posted July 19, 2023 It will be interesting to see if Hagon can get the better of Adam....Hagon is improving with every outing and he fills me with optimism! I'd have Bowtell and Newman on level terms. Rowe/Cook will leave Nielsen/Starke in their wake. King better than Lawson. Worral/Batch evens... Not sure how Ben Cook goes at PB (never seen him), but I do know that he wont have to be that good to beat Sedgemen! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ben Cook 13+3 and 8+1 last season. One score was at reserve and other at no4. Sure you can work out which is which! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
