Looks a good line up. Some good young talent in Sayfutdinov and Ivanov and will be interesting what the Poles can do at Rye! Tressarieu is good round Rye. Looks very competitive and should get some good racing.

Not quite true anymore.

 

Spoke to Tim Gomez last night and he said that he could no longer afford the payments required for having the medical etc as he is only at reserve. So I guess the reserve spot goes to someone else. :(

 

Tim was only a reserve if Dale or Kenny were not able to ride so thats why it wasn't worth the exspences of the medical and one day licence.

Tressarieu,woffinden and Emil Sayfutdinov are my predicted top 3

 

 

You have got to be joking.

 

Troy Batchelor should walk this meeting due to the fact he has the highest average in the UK out of all these riders plus he is flying for Poole at the moment.

 

I think Sayfutdinov 2nd, Bridger 3rd and then either one of the Poles or Woffinden will be 4th.

Troy has never been brilliant at Hoddesdon. I reckon Tai should win it, but don't know enough about the rest of the field to predict a 1,2,3.

B) anyone got any idea what uncle Len is likely to charge us at the gate for this one, plus will this be a crowd puller, or a damp squib

 

According to Len in the Speedy Star, he expects to lose money tomorrow night. He also revealed that Hoddesdon will have a World U-21 semi final next season and is likely to stage the final the season after. No idea what the crowd will be like, soggy probably.

Hope there aren't any visa problems like the Sheffield meeting last year (or was it the year before) and that the Russians get to ride. If Sayfutdinov comes to terms with the track he should do well. Would be good for the sport if a young Russian can make a mark at World level.

My top 3

Tai, Batchelor, Sayfutdinov.

But Boxall will be up there if he gets in the meeting.

Poles will undoubtedly have some trouble acclimatising to the track, but it is a promising line-up. Hope Stevie B gets a chance in lieu of Frenchman no 2!

 

Mind you, what are the chances of running the event today? Looks a bit dodgy to me... but that's better than what I have to do tonight - sleep in a tent in a muddy field populated with lots of camping cubs. A very in-tents experience (groan!) :D
