We did better than I thought we would. We all know Nicholls will struggle on these bigger faster tracks these days. I still think we will surprise a few this year however ultimately to stand a chance of winning anything this year we need to be able to overturn Sheffield Leicester &Belle Vueover two legs.  Mayfield have a free pass this year & the boys don’t have any real pressure or expectations.     

It’s no disgrace to not be able to ride a farmers field 

Aces would have won by 30 if Brennan and King weren’t riding 

Fricke said after the meeting that it's s big change for him and he's getting used to things, I remember him making a slow start at Leicester a couple of years ago so I have no concerns, he'll be fine. Kvech has been excellent at the AFA since his very first meeting but is struggling to find the set up on what is at the moment an unusually slick Lynn track, he'll be fine too.  The reserves were much better last night and I expect them to carry on in that vein, they both have so much potential.

All that dirt must weigh the bike down... So that's why he struggles at the NSS....

We did better than I expected …..said before Nicholls wouldn’t score and Lawson and Musielek struggle there so to keep it to 12 was pretty good  We could get the bonus I’m sure Bewley and Kurtz will keep it close…. The other Belle Vue boys can’t ride Foxhall
