After all the fuss Tai made about team GB not being able to ride in this meeting, I would be very disappointed if he has pulled out, when he's been given the chance to be part of it.

Nick Morris guests at Number 1 for Coventry. He has started the season in good form but a tough position to ride in. Any word on who is guesting for Leicester in place of Walasek and Mikkel? (Imagine Rory will be one of the guests)

If he is only staying for a month, is it really worth having one made?

There's been light rain in Coventry for the last hour. The sky is black. We have had a lot of heavy rain over the last few days. This might be a good thing for Swindon as the track would have been very wet and we all know Batchelor and Co don't really like it wet.

Bomber is riding for Coventry

Wouldn't imagine it will be run by then as not many free Friday's this month due to Storm fixtures. With Troy scoring poorly I would have preferred to face him tonight.

Weather has been sunny so far today but there are a lot of dark clouds around. I'm actually hoping it rains now lol. I would rather meet Swindon with an in form Hans Andersen.

If the weather forecast is correct then they will need boats rather than bikes 😞

Surprised it was this close as thought this Swindon team would have won by alot more than 6. Zagar was shocking again

Zagar is really letting Belle Vue down

With the way Leicester have been riding, I would think using guests would give them more of a chance of winning than using their own team

Holder wasn't thinking about his average last night. Couple of points will be added on to Kacper's average as well now it's not assessed. Even if some of the riders drop a bit off their averages, it would still have to be two riders leaving Poole to fit Darcy in or as a replacement for Magic.

Heavy rain due from 2pm onwards. Hopefully the weather forecast will change.

Think this will be a 4pt away win Lakeside are really struggling for form at the moment.

Think this will be a home win as Swindon's team all ride the Abbey well. Going to predict 52-38

That's strange. Would be very surprised if Tai wasn't in it as he had been asking to take part in it for a while now. Does anybody have any idea when the full line up for this meeting will be announced as its only a couple of days away?

Yes as wasn't guesting on Mon, he was riding for his own team so it's allowed.

Credit to Davey Watt for showing dedication to Poole tonight and still racing. It can't have been easy after receiving the sad news that his Grandmother had passed away.

Judging by some comments, I don't think all Leicester fans would agree with you there

I think on paper Wolves look strongest at reserve but Poole's top 5 look stronger. Anything can happen but I think it has always been a bit of a concern for Wolves when their team depends so much on the form/availability of one rider.

Any of the 4 suggested would be good. Is Batchelor not riding in the best pairs? I agree if it was Leicester's own team but will depend on the guests.

Coventry will be without Hans Andersen Leicester will be without Auty, Walasek (possibly Mikkel and Pedersen if in Danish Championships) Shame the date couldn't have been changed for this.

Because guests makes Leicester much stronger. With their own team they would lose

He recently guested for them and top scored. Said he would guest for them anytime

I think some Robins fans are very disrespectful when it comes to Han's. He is a professional rider who is struggling at the moment. Next you will tell us that he has a lion on the other sleeve as scored just as well for Leicester. I guess we should be flattered other teams would prefer our no1 to their own I can see Swindon taking something from this meeting based on the abilities of their own riders (unless it's wet 😄)
