Gotta feel for the Witches (or any team losing riders for the play offs) as besides someone like Lambert or Laguta there isn’t a like for like replacement.

Bomber sadly is a poor replacement even tho he will either be a match winner or score 3.

The Aces again have the luck with them as missing Wright probably strengthens them a little.

Still prefer to see 7 man teams tho. 

There is absolutely no chance Belle Vue are stronger without Wright, it's not even up for debate, we are weaker without a doubt, Home and Away.

Bet 365 have Aces  odds on favs to win 47-43 ?

Lidsey will more than likely ride heat 8 which is always handy… Lemon may choose to use Lidsey in both heats 12 & 14 instead though but that’s less likely 

I wouldn't use Lidsey in heat 8, against Hume, Smith & Bailey is a waste. 
I'd use him in heat 5 against King & Riss or Heat 11 against Harris & Rew.

Play off Harris worries me. He will love the conditions tonight and may not score as much as a fit Doyle but will score the same as a half fit Doyle. 
 

if we can keep it within 10 I’ll be happy 

Don’t worry, play.off Harris only got 1 point for us at Monmore in 2017.

Makes a lot of sense. You put him in with a strong chance of coming away with three points. Three points he’s less likely to pick up against King or Harris.

Yes but for example Brennan can beat Smith and Hume in heat 8.

Hopefully it doesn't stop as it'll be to Ippo's advantage. 

Be silly to run this fixture now with no Doyle and no home advantage.
