Heathcote

Charles Wright @ 28/1 offers some value for me tonight Lambert should walk the meeting barring EF, but Charles should make the final and as long as he doesn't come last the money comes in Also backing Charles over 9 points and for him to outscore Anders Rowe

A huge coup for whoever got this back on national television. Here’s hoping that Phil Morris can organise a slick professional well run meeting and that ITV don’t opt to bring in their own presenters, leave it to the likes of Kelvin and Olly so the casual viewer isn’t put off by some clueless idiot who’s never seen a bike before. Although a slight overrun of the program woukdnt go a miss catch all those viewers turning on for the EFL highlights at 9pm

Not sure which stats are showing Jacks average at has less than 8?? He has scored paid 51 from 19 rides, an average of 10.7 at home in old money, new its still over 9.5 As for replacing Jack, surely Doyle comes into the team next week at Ipswich, his 28 day spell finishes with the Aces on Monday and I haven't seen anywhere that they have made the deal permanent, then again I also haven't seen anything suggesting Bewley will return. So not sure whether a 28 deal can be extended further, but thats by far the cheapest easiest and simplest solution for Sheffield

Is the updated site down? Nothing for any of tonight’s meetings?

If this does start does anyone know if TNT will continue to show the GP tonight as live baseball is scheduled to start at 9?

A rather strange date and time to arrange this "prestige" fixture....putting it up against the Vojens GP. Also they must be praying that Sheffield Wednesday don't get a home fixture the same day, as that would mean no car parking at the stadium?

According to Scots insta post coverage starts on HBO max at 6pm, him and Kelvin are on comms

Terrazzo in the Italian championship

First 2 seasons of watching BSN through the tv browser, no issue whatsoever. Last year, constant problems with the event freezing through the TV browser (Sony TV, TV Bro app), although there was never an issue when watching reruns through the tv browser, only live meetings. For rest of the season continued watching with the laptop connected to the TV and no issues at all. This season i have used the Amazon Silk browser through the firestick and so far on the 2 meetings broadcast, not a single hitch or glitch.

Ben Cook even money tonight over Matej Zagar, should be a license to print money. Ok Zagar could have 7 rides, 5 of which are almost guaranteed but i dont see him getting any more than 7 points. Going to face Ben Cook twice, add in heats with Bomber and Fricke also, plus he is going to be partnering Lidsey and Klindt in 2 of his own rides, so won't even be guaranteed 3rd place in most of his heats. Klindt even money over Jan Kvech, purely basing this on the fact Klindt could have 7 rides tonight and Kvech may only get 4, and I would say 7 rides for Klindt guarantees him double figures, 4 rides may not get Kvech to double figures. Klindt over 10 @ 11/8 purely in the hope he gets 7 rides, Id say 6 are guaranteed and that should still get him over 10. Northampton +10 at even money is appealing also, 4 ex Stars in the Northampton line up and the fact there are 2 ex Stars at reserve, who should easily outscore their counterparts, hopefully ensure this remains closer than most think. Brennan over 9 @ 11/8, should have 6 rides tonight and he should get double figures from those 6. Obvioulsy up against Brady and/or Dan in 3 of those heats, but no other BV rider should be beating him along with non of his own team mates.

Ben Cook +2 over Hellstrom Bangs @ 5/6, seems rather generous to me.

I say again 97 different riders rode in the UK last year

People keep banging on about not enough riders for one big league....given the fact that Chris Louis claims unless theres a 6 team Premiership Ipswich will not run in 2026....that leaves 13 teams, a total of 91 riders required....97 riders rode in the UK last season...a quick pedantic way to look at it as its plainly clear there will be no room for the Likes of Dan Brady Max and Jack in one big league, but add in a few new comers Cooper Rushen etc, add in the Aussies already plying their trade in Europe but not the UK, Michael West etc, Gets the likes of Matic Ivacic to return and similar, try and entice the likes of Berge and Bellego along with any up and coming new Aussie, Swede, Dane and 13 teams can easily be filled....obvioulsy whether the talent would be spread evenly is another question But in the meantime the can is kicked down the road to sometime in Jan when they finally decide the Premiership is dead or alive..and then wow, where have all the Premiership riders gone??? Dougy, Lidsey Ellis, Musielak, Chris Holder all sat at home now thinking well i cant hang around waiting for the BSPA to get their arse in gear, I'll sign in Poland, Sweden and Denmark...come Feb Sheffield ring Chris up and he says sorry mate, schedules already full, no time for Mondays and Thursday, Same with Dougy, Becker etc

Drew Kemp Under 7 at even money Heat 2, potentially gets 3 points although I would say Dan T is fav to take the heat win Heat 7, Will he get a point? Possibly can hold off Ellis if he gates Heat 11, Cant see him beating any of Emil, Danny or Sam Heat 12, if he replaces Joe, but again still up against Dan T, so will do well to get a point Heat 14, 2 points at best and even if he beats both Witches, of which one will most likely be Dan T again In my opinion will have to ride extremely well to get 6 points at best By the same token also taking Dan Thompson +1 to outscore Drew also at even money

Id imagine 7 rides for both Magic and PK

Yet still rode in Denmark last night scoring paid 5?

Where did Tungate get injured?

Steve Worrall said earlier in the season that he only wanted to do the one league. Although Sheffield have until the 10th August to make a change, 75% hits on the 11th when they ride against Belle Vue. By the 10th August Scunthorpe will only have 2 meetings remaining, as i doubt they will make the play offs, so maybe he will do more than one league for a couple of meetings if it extends his season into September

If the greyhounds are moving to Dunstall Park then what does this mean for the future of Monmore Green? Surely Wolverhampton cant sustain 2 dog tracks less than 3 mile apart?

So, how and why are Birmingham being allowed to run RR for MJJ when the 28 day facility ended yesterday?

If there is 10 points to play with why not go with James Pearson and Michael West, both currently in Europe and neither riding in the UK

Whats the format of this meeting? Im assuming top 2 straight to he final next 4 to a race off?

Ooops sorry. Meant -28. But was still considering the minus 16 at heat 8 Anyway stand by my original comment the Brummies won’t hit 30

Ipswich v Birmingham Snapped up the -16 @5/6on offer for the Witches, cant for the life of me see how the Brummies get 37 points at Foxhall, will do exceptionally well to get 30. Rew Over 6 @5/4, is a no brainer, likely to get 6 rides and should be able to hit the occasional 2nd place. Brennan over 10 @6/5, dont see him getting beaten and the likelihood of Emil and Doyle skipping heat 15, should mean Tom gets 5 rides MJJ under 9 @ 10/11, will do well to be beating Thompson and Jenkins around Foxhall let alone the top 5. Sheffield v Oxford Sheffield will win this easily but whether they can cover the handicap of -20 is unknown, using RR they may well have hit 56 points, but with the changes to the Tigers septet, it could be a bit hit and miss how Sedgy and Kerr hit the ground running. Wright over 6 @6/5, for very similar reasons above, 4 rides and should be coming 2nd in all of them, add in a potential heat 15 and should easily get over 6 Riss +1 over Rowe @ 6/5, Both will probably score a similar amount but with the possibility that Riss will get a TR and also Heat 15 then will outscore Anders from his 4 rides.

Worrall stated at CLRC that he would only ride in the Championship this year wants to get back to just enjoying speedway riding once a week
