MP78 17 Posted September 18, 2023 1 hour ago, foreverblue said: Where does it say he was knocked out? He appeared very limp as he was thrown around and into the fence - no bracing or attempt to protect himself and I'm sure he hit the side of his head on the track as he initially left the bike, so presumably it was at that point he went out...

Rob B 1,257 Posted September 18, 2023 The heavy rain from this morning has now stopped, it was very heavy and prolonged. Looks like will be dry for an hour now then more rain around 2pm. Then dry for few hours but the concern now is the showers around 7pm are now more clustered together and intense, it’s changed from 50% chance to 80% chance.

SPEEDY69 1,260 Posted September 18, 2023 (edited) Don't think Thursday will be off, forecast good for Ipswich. Is this not on TV tonight? Edited September 18, 2023 by SPEEDY69 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
blue witch 46 Posted September 18, 2023 Let's hope Jack Smith can get some points for us tonight...weather permitting Also Belle Vue tweeted CW R/R 5.81 meaning only brennan and res can take rides? Must be a typo as he was 6.55 last averages 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Must be a typo as he was 6.55 last averages CW is 6.55. Lidsey can take an r/r. Jack been given enough opportunities he's simple not good enough at Prem level.

Jack been given enough opportunities he's simple not good enough at Prem level. smith rode against wolves in prem at NSS replaced mulford/injured scored 2+1 so he has been given a chance by Aces Also riding for Colts all season paying 95% of his earnings i would say that deserves some loyalty to B/vue instead of riding against them !! anyway shot is own bolt IMO he won't be involved with Aces or COLTS again !!
