Yeah, was thinking the same thing too.

Bowes was probably suffering from the old rust. He started quite poor in Poland as well as here. He's now doing very well in both countries, with plenty of riding in Poland during the down times in England benefiting him.

Makes a real difference to the Workington team if Bowes can keep up the heat leader scoring.

Entertaining meeting tonight though can’t believe the Workington fans going hyper over a bonus point. Lots of talking points. Poor Tobias probably doesn’t know where his arse from his el ow is after tonight. Rotten luck in heat 6 when on a 5-1 with Lawson. Looked from the grandstand that he tried to cut to the inside down the back straight but clipped the back of Lawson which brought them both down. Then in heat 8 a coming together with Foord which again saw them both in the deck. I certainly wouldn’t have given Tobias his last ride but I am not Middlo.

Rowe in heat 7. Not sure what happened. Did a footrest go through his front wheel? His handlebars were wobbling all over the place and he had to stop.

Lawson was excellent as always. Tobias had a poor night. Kerr did OK. Three gated wins then faded. Just can’t pass. Cook started as usual poorly but was much better after that. Thought he should have got heat 14. Rowe wasn’t at his best. Stark did his usual. Cairns paid 9 good effort.

For Workington Batchelor did his usual tailed off at the back then won a race. Bowes was excellent. Etheridge best ever performance at Poole. Normally about 4 points. Violas was pretty rubbish to be honest. Hook had his best ever meeting at Poole by far. Foord was miles off it until heat 8 with a kamikaze move which ended his night.

Some good hard racing with plenty of passing. How clear are we at the top now? No idea but feel confident of top spot. Well done Workington for putting up a fight and making it entertaining.

Fair play to the Kermits 😘

Kamikaze move that ended his night? Hope you’re referring to Thomsen there and not Vinnie.

I can believe Workington going hyper over winning the bonus point as most had it nailed on for Poole!

PILOTS ARE ELEVEN POINTS CLEAR! 

C'mon the Boyzzz! 😀

Doesn't matter if you finish top, it's the grand final that matters, IF tonight was the final who won on aggregate ???
