southern1 Posted July 15, 2008 Report Share Posted July 15, 2008 i think it will either be summers as he has looked good on the 2 occasions this season i have seen him or possibly byron bekker who has improved so much this season and is holding his own in the premier league. the dark horse has to be peter juul larson as nobody knows much about him other than he is a young hot dane.

youngy105 Posted July 15, 2008 Author Report Share Posted July 15, 2008 I wouldn't count Ben Hopwood or Ben Taylor out just yet. Those two race at Belle Vue every week and can ride the track really well. Looking forward to this meeting, it's always a good un' and produces some decent racing.

Belle Vue Colts Posted July 16, 2008 Report Share Posted July 16, 2008 any ideas on what the weather is like for tonight? will make the journey if this meeting is deffo going ahead Completely dry at present and very warm. After a sunny morning it has now clouded over but is still very warm. Some scattered showers are forecast for late afternoon early evening, but hopefully nothing to threaten the meeting.

Rob B Posted July 16, 2008 Report Share Posted July 16, 2008 Racing not as good as has been in previous years but did get better towards the end. Run off for third was a bit strange, McKinna was leading, Halsey seemed to clip his back wheel and fell quite heavily, then Juul passed McKinna, ref stopped it and awarded it to Halsey. Was most impressed with Summers and Peter Juul, can definalty see Juul being as good as Hougaard in a year or so, looked very good when in front and tried from behind but was only using the inside. Well done to John Branney but he is not exactly a junior anymore. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
youngy105 Posted July 16, 2008 Author Report Share Posted July 16, 2008 Not a bad meeting tonight but racing wasn't as good as it's been in previous years. I don't know what type of cars were bombing round the track before the meeting, they looked like sand buggies or something like that, but they were making a mess of the track. Screenie had a few practice laps and he looked like he was struggling on bends 1 and 2. Track work was done before the parade and it didn't look too bad though the riders said afterwards it was very slick. Not much to mention racing wise. Big well done John Branney on winning it. Summers must be gutted as he did everything right bar making the gate in his last ride. He tried everything to get into second but just couldn't find a way past. Glasgows new boy looks to be a great prospect. Good gater (aren't they all from Denmark) and looks smooth on the bike. Only snag was when behind he wouldn't move off the inside, if he'd have gone out wide he would have passed whoever was in front of him no problem. Didn't understand the ref's decision in the run off. Halsey went to go round McKinna on first and second turns of lap 4. Halsey clipped McKinnas back wheel and fell heavily. Larsen then passed McKinna and as soon as he'd done that the ref slammed the red lights on, excluded McKinna and awarded the race to Halsey. Wrong decision IMO. Not a bad night for £8 though.

buxton-babe Posted July 17, 2008 Report Share Posted July 17, 2008 think the ref made a couple of bad decisions. adam shouldn't of been excluded in the run off and heat 20 should of been pulled back 2 of them clearly jumped it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wendy Posted July 17, 2008 Report Share Posted July 17, 2008 think the ref made a couple of bad decisions. adam shouldn't of been excluded in the run off and heat 20 should of been pulled back 2 of them clearly jumped it! Adam would disagree with you...he said that he locked up and caused Daniel to come off. He had no complaints about his exclusion. But, if Daniel hadn't come off, Peter was passed them both and would have claimed the win and therefore third overall. Decent meeting, though as it built to a climax. Just surprised so few attended when there was nothing else on and it was only £8! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
