Monarchlad Posted September 28, 2013 Author Report Share Posted September 28, 2013 I thought it was a professional performance in the end, although we made hard work of it..........and Dump is a bit out of order Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bandit59 Posted September 28, 2013 Report Share Posted September 28, 2013 Well we made hard work of that one against an average comets side. Thought we were poor tonight concidering how well we have been going at home recently but we got all 3 points which is all that matters. Thought it was a good result considering Deeks and Claus have been having a few poor meetings glad Max is ok looking forward to seeing Barker next week Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crescent girl Posted September 28, 2013 Report Share Posted September 28, 2013 (edited) Track wasn't great last night. I don't think Alan Bridgett was in his tractor -- is he on holiday? If so, it showed! Edited September 28, 2013 by crescent girl Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fromafar Posted September 28, 2013 Report Share Posted September 28, 2013 Kyle Howarth is very impressive this season and is one of the most improved young riders in GB .IMO.Although Morris had a decent meeting and done most of the passing on the night.

caithgen Posted September 28, 2013 Report Share Posted September 28, 2013 Track wasn't great last night. I don't think Alan Bridgett was in his tractor -- is he on holiday? If so, it showed! Track looked ok to me. Heat 1 was 55 seconds - just 1.5 outside the track record but times did increase as the meeting went on. I believe Alan Bridgett was at the track from around 10 until 3pm.

Lord Lucan Posted September 28, 2013 Report Share Posted September 28, 2013 Haven't looked at the in's and out's of this meeting but that was a far better result than I had anticipated!! As suggested, a poor return from Rusty and Rich probably cost us a few extra points especially if some Monarchs were not on completely top form, you never know, if our's had been nearer the mark could have taken back that point we lost last week? But that is our trend, we don't take advantage of others bad days as often as we should, sadly, it is what it is and we have to take it on the chin, bag three points tonight and hope Ipswich do us a favour on Thursday, would be a nice way to extend the season a play off final, here's hoping?

Lawson wasn't much better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Halifaxtiger Posted September 28, 2013 Report Share Posted September 28, 2013 (edited) Final score doesn't reflect how close it was for most of the meeting. Some decent racing in front of what looked like a healthy gate. Cookie was untouchable, Fricke did well after being pole axed by Mills. Morris and Howarth impressive.

Fenway Bleachers Posted September 29, 2013 Report Share Posted September 29, 2013 Comets kept this close, thanks to Howarth and the white line hugging Morris until poleaxed by the old firm of Cookie and Theo. Rusty had his poorest return at the dale ever as a visitor, and gated poorly. Lawson was his usual self and was never likely to beat Cookie or Pijper, so his 6 points was a par score.
