Excellent win for Scunny. Great team performance.

Should be fine on Wednesday then!🤣

Yes I was a bit too eager. I thought it had finished.....

Rushen didn't get a ride, but Will Cairns was on fire, top scoring first Team GB, and would have scored more if he hadn't shut off as he approached the finish line in his first race!! Lesson learned!

..thereby allowing Rushen to win and Lawson to go for 2nd plus bonus(all good for the gsa)🤣

Such a shame for Fraser who was using a proven engine from Tom Brennan (2024) who didn't do too badly around the Poole track!

Interestingly all the race times were on a par with this season's meetings.

Fraser reports a punctured lung, blood on the lung and back spasms. Such a shame when he was going well on the 'new' engine. Get well soon.

Rib and back pain is being mentioned. PS it was announced at the end of meeting presentations that Fraser had texted from Poole Hospital that injuries did not appear as bad as first thought! PPS Danny Ford apologised for the track conditions this evening - they put too much shale down and then overwatered.

Rib and back pain is being mentioned

Similar reason why Ritchings is missing!!

He was 'advised' to ride the white line but continued to take the outside line. Wouldn't listen.

Still some queries over the Cheetahs line up? Morris for Riss (according to Berwick) but Killeen and Ritchings also missing

Bowes confirmed back on Wednesday! Apparently saw eye to eye with the Opthalmology consultant, and a 'nod's as good as a wink'.😃

...subject to medical clearance! The optics have to be right🤣

Rushen rested, Charlie Southwick rides.

I complained about the Scunthorpe stream earlier this season and was told that its due to 'a poor Wi-Fi signal'!! Whilst I appreciate that wi-fi can vary considerably across the country, Scunthorpe still charge the same amount as most other clubs ie £13.99, so you would think there might be some sort of discount............?

So is Erik Riss riding or not?😉 We know Fraser Bowes is not riding for Poole, and neither is Cooper Rushen , who is replaced by Charlie Southwick.

Masters is a heat leader for Leicester!

From Fraser Bowes 𝙐𝙋𝘿𝘼𝙏𝙀 Hi everyone, I thought I’d jump on and explain why I haven’t been at the last two matches this week. On Tuesday, while fitting a new engine, I was struck directly in the eye by an exhaust spring under load. I was taken to the eye emergency department at Bournemouth Hospital, where I was diagnosed with a deep traumatic corneal abrasion. The injury has left me with a bloodshot eye that is light sensitive and has been causing headaches. At the moment, all I can really do is rest, but there are improvements each day. I’m aiming to be back for Wednesday’s match against Oxford, and I can’t thank Ian and Nicola Bell enough for all their help and support during this situation.

Excellent result. Kerr and Cairns imperious. Cook not really himself. Overall the team done good. Well done Havvy.

As reported, he has not responded to physio.............

Will is already nursing a sore wrist so hope he's up for 7 rides?! If there is a positive in this situation, Cooper should stay at reserve for longer - at least for the Glasgow meeting on 27/05!!

What, like the Comics and Cook's non-speedway related absence?🫠

Matt Ford said at P&P that Poole would never rule out Premiership racing in the future, BUT 2 things would need to be in place - 1) a decent TV contract, and 2) being allowed to race home meetings on Wednesdays. Also assuming a sensible points limit he would love to track a Pirates team containing both Holders and both Cook brothers😇
