Just got in from a very good and entertaining meeting. Arrived in our group to find we had been allocated 6 seats in virtually our usual spot. Names we on seats. All very easy. Crowd steadily came in and all allowed seats in the stand were full. Of course the attendance was well down on usual numbers. Before the meeting Mark Weber was interviewed. Big fan of the sport and there to support the Aussies. Track was in tip top condition. Smooth, well watered and plenty of dirt. Lots of passing and last bend swoops. No interval, as no outlets open. What a debut for young Ben Cook. 13 points on his first ever meeting at Wimborne Road, which really should have been 15 but for Stefan Neilsens fall when we’ll clear in heat 14. Also a mention for Berwicks two reserves who stopped the meeting becoming a rout. They battled for every point with some determined team riding to keep Cook out on 2 occasions. For Poole. Hans was excellent. Zane struggled badly. Aggressive in his first but slow, then tailed off. Destined for reserve and needs more track time to work out the racing lines. Steve was excellent with some good passing moves. Stefan would have only dropped a point but overlooked and came down in heat 14 when we’ll clear. A 5-1 turned into a 1-5 in the rerun. Danny was solid. One impressive last bend swoop. Ben was rider of the night. Like a mini Steve Schofield. Not the best gater but hard into the first bend. Looks like a find and could be a future heat leader. Time will tell. Danyon tried every race but failed to score. Not through lack of effort> For Berwick. NBJ really disappointed. Expected much more than 6 from 5. Same goes for Etheridge. Been scoring well but awol tonight. Huge disappointment was Danny. Next to useless. Summers disappointed. Seem to be using that word a lot for Bandits heat leaders. Kyle Buckley take a bow. Mixing it, battling. Good for him. Leon Flint was top dog. Paid 13 from number 7 is a quite remarkable effort and these two reserved saved Berwick from a thumping. And they are young Brits as well. So Poole get 3 points and start to get used to the track. Think we. Ishtar see some thrilling racing at Wimborne Road this year one the teams gets proper dialled in.

Thank god that’s over. Be difficult to have another meeting as bad on tv for the rest of the season. Massive blue grooves on all bends. -

Brave of Adam Ellis to come out in heat 14 after the track threw him over the top of his bike just a few minutes earlier. -

Sorry Steve you cannot deflect from this meeting. Dangerous and causing injuries. Ellis very lucky to walk away from that. Poole track is far superior to Monmore in every way. Get the stream on Wednesday and see the difference. -

Monmore far more dangerous. Absolutely shocking track. -

Weird? I am a heterosexual male and she is a tasty looker. Strange to think any other way. -
