Eh? Surely it’s calculated that the amount extra 5 yards on the final lap or whatever it is takes it to 260?

Presumably for track length?

Sometimes he doesn't think which is a problem. That aside i thought he was great tonight though - a very classy rider on his night.

Agree. Would Sedgmen have worked as a replacement average wise? That ship has sailed obviously but we’d be stronger with him in the line-up certainly.

Great point. The BSN coverage is night and day compared to earlier in the season so fair play to them for addressing the issues. Really good coverage.

What a mess heat 8 was. How we contrived to lose that heat god knows.

I know Armadale is often won from the gate but is Leicester usually the same? Glad I didn’t drive up as I had planned. edit: wrong word!

Exciting and one of the best. Hope he still sees the value in being a championship rider with Edinburgh next season and beyond. :-)

Chances of the BSN stream working?

Could someone summarise the outputs of the meeting tonight for those of us unable to attend? Much appreciated

That’s the spirit

I do love him but he’s iffy on the mic!

How is Sam so bad on tv after 20 years in the media?! Love him but he’s a calamity sometimes.

It can sometimes be a little too much but in some races I think it adds to the tension. Bit of mind games sometimes too - last to tapes etc.

Eh? Edinburgh are operating r/r because he’s injured…….

Fair point.

I think Lasse would be fine at reserve tbh. Chance to build some confidence

Surely only if ‘on duty’?

I get what you mean but that would deny us some extraordinary racing.

Looks a great result given Cook was out for the majority of the meeting. Maybe gives some hope that you can compete when he's not firing on all cylinders - i previously doubted this was possible.

I'd take Dillon Ruml in a Monarch's racesuit in a heartbeat.

Good win but can't help think that had Nicholls been there we likely wouldn't have come away with the points. A win is a win though. If we make the play-offs we won't be worrying the top teams however - too reliant on our top two. Paco or Kye need to come to the party more especially at home. Ht13 was an absolute joy. We can now safely talk about Josh Pickering in the same breath as Cook, Masters, Schott and Carr as the best home riders we've seen at Armadale. I remember watching him in his first press and practice and thinking he was going to kill himself - i needn't have worried. ps. never fail to be impressed by the quality of the streaming. Well done to all those involved in making it such a top notch production.

I fear the weather might win

Yep so would have to weigh it up

Would take Wright. Not so sure about Bickley though.
