Didn’t expect the meeting to be that one sided.
Sheffield rode pretty solid from 1-7, as has been said earlier both Holders looked slower than usual, Pickering was his usual Owlerton 2025 self, Rowe again picked up good points unsure if he got a knock on the arm when Flint didn’t look who was behind him in Ht8 and unintentionally fenced him, Sedgmen a lot better than his afternoon performance and the Kerr/Flint reserve combo outstanding again.
As for Belle Vue Lemon must be scratching his head,does he leave the 1-7 as it is or make a change(s). Bewley did his job looking ultra quick on a couple of races, Zischke did well for his first visit, think it helped him there was an outside line as that seems to be his go to style, Mulford was always going to struggle against the in form Sheffield reserves, but the combo of Kurtz, Blodorn, Lidsey and Cook scoring 15 from 16 rides was shocking, Kurtz especially poor as he basically rode at Owlerton for a season when guesting for Simon Stead so knows his way around the place, thought he was on for an Audi badge at one point.
As other posters have said scores in May mean nothing come October, Sheffield have turned Belle Vue over in the league meetings on many occasions but failed in the important ones at the end of the season, hopefully that curse can be lifted this season.
