both tungate and wright had avoidable falls. boughton made a schoolboy error and kerr was badly off form. as such oxford didn’t fancy it so no effort was made to remedy the track. it was still early in the evening and a clear weather window was approaching. maybe the sparse crowd had something to do with it.
BSN must have thought ‘oh no another duff fixture’ but it’s turned it’s their best meeting ever. lindgren riding around. after and an interview with emil at the close
kerr will likely be rusty after his layoff. apparently cook has been fitted out with some spires kevlars so looks like he is staying. not that he looks comfortable on the track mind.
