Anyone able to post what actually happened in each of the incidents? Much appreciated.

Some think they are being smug - but they have a long way to go!!

Just Heeps & the reserves I think.

Big crowd pullers are the Monarchs!!

Pity Smiling Sam wasn't riding!! Cookie has had a very up and down season which is why he dropped from number 1. I think when he guested against Newcy he was in one of his down periods and couldn't gate for toffee. I saw him the next night at Armadale against Glasgow and he was the same out of the gate and even lost a 5-1 in one heat. But 2 days later he had blitzed a 15 point max away to Glasgow!! It's a funny old game!! Maybe the GP has given him some confidence? That's 2 x 15 pointers since then. On another note, I'm deffo not a regular at Ippo, but I think that's twice in a row I have seen someone go straight through the fence on the second bend one panel past the bouncy castle. The other was Hawkins - possibly against Somerset. What is the problem there? Does the bouncy castle stop a panel too soon? Manzares certainly went through it at a bit of speed. Hope he makes a quick recovery. Decent meeting though and there looked a good sized crowd to me. Should be a full house for the League Cup clash!!

Just read that Kevin is struggling with his shoulder injury!

I too thought Manzares had nicked it in heat 5 and had started texting that result. But morris flier in heat 14 was unreal. Heaven knows why it wasn't called back. King was outstanding in heat 1 off 15m. But Worrall & Sedgy tried to be too careful. After that cookie had him in his pocket - gave him a start twice. Rollin' rode well. Covatti disappointed me. Heeps & Manzares were nothing much. Neilsen was poor - bike problems? His heat 12 attempts were a joke. Morris scored well but the flier helped. Smilin' Sam was missed - Richie seemed a bit down on speed. Sedgy got going in his 3rd & 4th rides. Good performance. Kevin looked slow. Erik was steady but also looked slow. Both Germans had a couple of good gates. Cookie was just immense. Didn't move at all at the gate. Wasn't always gating first but even from behind was so fast. Cleggy rode ok. Stupid tapes exclusion in his first but pretty steady thereafter. Greenwood never threatened unfortunately and was a bit unsteady in heat 2 till Cleggy got past. Decent meeting though. Probably better than eastenders. Pretty much nip & tuck with a flurry of 5-1 from heat 10. And the Ippo fans stayed till the end this time unlike the last time we were in town!

Cookie Cookie Cookie!

First race probably won't be till 8!!

Every time he lines up to start a race. Good song for it though.

Creeping not as bad as Rollin'.

Exactly!! And is this the Richie Worrall that's maybe pondering his future in the sport? And is this the Ippo that now have Rollin Rohan back on form? Banker home win.

Who else is missing?

No need to get smug!! Just remember............. EDINBURGH 'Border Roofing' MONARCHS...53 IPSWICH 'Sackers' WITCHES...37

Stroll in the jungle for the big cats.

Spot on. Need Richie to be on a big revenge mission like he was with Somerset at Ippo the other week.

Could lose 3 in 3 days this week, but we might not.

He was good at Peterborough.

No herring though.

Where do Edinburgh fit in to this thread?

Rebels probably are.

Dang so they are!! Nice one!!

Walk in the forest for Ippo? But there are bears in the woods and branches to trip over.

Easy run for Somerzet.

Yep it's tempting!! But I thought CL needed my cash to pay Rolling Rohan & co?
