They want Jack for Belle Vue Monday, so is there yet another rule hidden somewhere that we have to use the same rising star for both meetings?? 8 day rule.

Kings Lynn, Leicester and Peterborough have finished their seasons, so Louis should name one of Kemp, Rowe or Jenkins and see what happens..... if refused .. well they are in a declared 1-7 for the 8 day rule guest section...

SPEEDY69 1,260 Posted September 21, 2023 (edited) Dry day apart from a chance of very light rain so should be fine. We didn't get much rain last night and all drying up now. Edited September 21, 2023 by SPEEDY69 Mistake Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Don't know where you are speedy but it shows the rain was very localised and depends whether the rain band hit the stadium Where I am (2ish miles away as crow flies) the rain was so heavy it woke me up and looking out it was monsoon like If that hit the track I expect similar pictures to the May example If so it will be significantly harder to resolve this time as it has been generally wetter and colder so underlying conditions not as condusive No dry sunny and warm day to assist either 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Our guttering overflows if there is heavy rain and it didn't last night. On my short drive at 6.30 this morning the roads were drying. There really should be no problems with the meeting today, it's still quite warm - or is that a rodent I can whiff? Forecast now show possible 1mm of rain this afternoon, which is really not a lot.

Confirms how localised the rain can be Speedy is the closest of us 3 but doesn't mean the track of the rain band didn't cross the stadium Not long to find out Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
