Comets v Monarchs, guest for Josh and r/r for Rene, a few showers forecast for Saturday afternoon.....

 

Been a struggle at Worky this year with the weather, injuries, double uppers, double downers, double dip recession, double deckers....oh sorry got a bit carried away, abandonments, double headers...might give the last meet of the season a miss if its on Saturday the 25th.....are we there yet. :neutral:

dont know about showers in the afternoon but think the overnight rain could finish it off track not looking good now never mind after more rain

 

Oh no, it's not that standing water in the surrounding areas issue again is it? ;)

its the same bike , but the elite league is far easier to score points in..

The evidence suggests otherwise. Looking at the averages of doubling-up riders Howarth's PL performances are out of line with other double uppers.

 

eg

Lasse Bjerre EL 4.67 PL 8.65 PL av 85% higher

Klindt EL 5.16 PL 6.68 PL av 29% higher

R Worrall 5.60 PL 7.32 PL av 31% higher

Grajczonek EL 6.34 PL 8.11 PL av 28% higher

 

Howarth EL 5.43 PL 6.31 just 16% higher

 

Bjerre is an outlier at the other end of the scale so 30% looks like the expected premium, meaning Howarth should be averaging about 7.06

I think that is why a lot of fans have started getting on his back, he's beating GP riders for Coventry then getting beaten by 'lesser' riders in the PL, a different PL club would be best for all concerned in my humble opinion

Congrats to Worky on the big win.

 

I'm surprised I must say.

 

Looked like a strange evening - 7 race winners to the Mons but lost a stack of 1-5s.

 

Still as long as everyone is unscathed and No bike issues that will be the main thing.
