Phil Morris saw this comment and decided we couldn't be having any entertainment and flooded the track

Real shame as he looked good in the meetings I saw him in. Unless they pull a miraculous signing I can't see Edinburgh even finish 8th especially when Victor gets his real average.

Only a draw if you lose (I don't like them either)

He came 3rd but that might be one of Ashton's most promising rides, kept stuck in for all 4 laps

Think he might be on a 4.50 converted from his Prem average which would certainly be a masterstroke as he could go to reserve when Mitch gets his average

Happy to see Gusts will still be riding in the UK. Ashame for Gilkes though and hopefully he'll be able to recover well and quickly. If he is out for longer, I am looking forward to seeing Gusts at Glasgow as I rate him highly.

Gutted for Bomber, thought he was going to win the whole thing into the last lap and he finishes it last.

As Glasgow fans we are used to our kids races (we do 2 now) the issue is that it looked like after that had finished there was a further 15-20 minutes of nothing happening on track at all, not even a tractor going round. Maybe BSN missed some stuff or if there were multiple interval entertainment sections spreading them over the other intervals instead of just one would have helped. My guess was a sun delay that BSN wasn't told about but have no clue if the sun was even out.

Ashton made it through the first corner without shutting off, that's an improvement

Think it will be June 1st, at the moment straight to No1

Not that it was really needed but great team riding in heat 3

Think they mean more that Paco is riding instead of a guest tonight so the other 6 riders need to click together as Paco isn't the strongest round Ashfield (or at best not consistent)

I think it was Leon said in an interview that him and Dan are still getting used to riding with each other (knowing where each wants to go) so I think it's fine to leave riding order as is, if those 2 click together it makes it very difficult for the away team to get any momentum/make any tac subs against them.

Was also on BSN which does affect crowds, same at Glasgow on Sunday.

Is he not on a 9.20 now anyway since he's not started the year in the championship he'd use his converted Prem average?

Think it was a few meetings before that when Ace took him out and he wasn't particularly pleased. Think this downturn in form though came after his crash in the CLRC at Redcar last year, hasn't been the same since.

Should be a close meeting, Cookie, Hagon and Drew are strong here and Hume and Smith have also had good meetings as home riders. Kildeman should also do well. If Boughen and Flint are going well though Glasgow might have too much power for the Bandits. Hopefully the track is good tonight, BSN have chosen a good meeting to stream.

Threw away at least 1 point for the group as would have finished 45-45 with the 5-1 instead of a 3-2. Could be important for best loser or even Berwick winning the group.

I think its more a confidence think at the moment. If he makes the start and gets out front he looks unstoppable, if he doesn't he'll shut off or over ride causing him to fall. Having a good meeting or two should hopefully help him but unlike Borke I think Boughen needs race time to solve his issues.

4 riders in the British Final and 4 riders in the U21 Final, pretty good going for our riders

What is it with Kings Lynn Glasgow riders getting hip injuries, is Bomber next

I think it might actually be a good window for Jack Smith. Berwick over the next month are away at Edinburgh, Glasgow, Redcar, Scunthorpe and Poole. He can score well at Redcar, Glasgow and Scunthorpe and had a good meeting at Berwick last year for Glasgow so it might work out.

It was very bumpy, you could see going into the corners the bike jumping even Drew was talking about riding the bike almost like a motocross bike. Class riders are class for a reason they'll take advantage and ride it out. Bumps aren't always bad but they did look quite big.

Do Edinburgh have a rider to pair with Polis to get a heat advantage, can't see anyone else beating Cook and Kemp?

If I was Oskar I'd be offended getting compared to Matic
