Rob B

It wouldn't surprise me if Robert Lambert rides in the playoffs again, guesting for one of the 4 teams.

Didn't take much notice what she said but the graphics on screen said Peterborough v Sheffield

No it was originally, but was changed to Peterborough v Sheffield when then swapped from Peterborough to Belle Vue 2 weeks ago.

And you can tell it’s spongy from a photo? FYI the track curator says it’s firm and no problem running heat 1 this afternoon. Sunny and very windy currently, my only concern is morning rain around 5pm.

World Cup final is always a great meeting, the 4TT format is fantastic when you have the top riders giving it everything. Something needs to be done about the semi finals though...

Surely they need to do something about that this year, even in standing we found you couldn't see other side of the track unless stood near the top of the banking.

Brennan is 6th in averages so has to ride at reserve! (although will probably move up again in August)

My prediction was 50-40 before the meeting so was spot on, but disappointing the way it finished after leading most of the meeting.

Definitely, and the fact he performing elsewhere must mean its machinery/mechanics related in UK. Every so often he has decent ride but just looked slow this year for Belle Vue.

Pickering and 3 rides for Howarth can cover for Kerr with Howarth especially been doing lot better round Owlerton than Kerr was.

Can’t replace RS in heat 8

Looks like Ritchie Hawkins not being here has fired Ipswich up.

It’s not a minority at Monmore though, it was so loud you could clearly hear it on Eurosport.

Wolves riders falling off on their own, staying down to get a rerun then standing up straight away is unprofessional.

Belle Vue went for the bonus point and nearly ended up winning again. Bewley getting injured, and then Wright and Lidsey bike failures in 14 & 15 finished that off. Belle Vue shown they can do Wolves over 2 legs comfortably twice now. Lots of falls but rubbish racing, only 1 pass in the whole meeting after 2nd bend and that was heat 15. Zero outside line and even the ‘Karlsson corridor’ wasn’t working, just had to ride mid track and no one getting past.

looking at radar there will be another shower between 2.30-3. Another one possibly around 4 and more worryingly one around 6pm. Hopefully wind changes and they miss.

R/R for Wolves doesn’t hamper them, if anything makes them stronger round Monmore with everyone taking a ride. Has Connor Bailey ridden Monmore before? Weather looks mixed, looks like rain from lunch till around 3pm then chance of showers afterwards? Wolverhampton ‘Parrys international’ Wolves: Sam Masters (C) 8.24, Steve Worrall 6.51, Luke Becker R/R 7.00, Rory Schlein 6.79, Ryan Douglas 6.45, Zach Cook 4.38, Leon Flint RS; TM: Peter Adams Belle Vue ‘ATPI’ Aces: Dan Bewley 8.28, Norick Blodorn 5.69, Jaimon Lidsey 7.25, Charles Wright 6.67, Brady Kurtz (C) 8.28, Tom Brennan 5.66, Connor Bailey RS; TM: Mark Lemon

Stopped raining now and forecast is fine for rest of the day. but we had a lot of rain this morning and last night and low temperature today so it will be damp track for sure, more in Wolves favour.

You could get even better then Tungate and have decent team then, but it won’t happen.

That is why I am attending tonight rather then watching TV, always one of my favourite tracks to visit (before Buster got involved) and will be our last time there.
