Rye house are coming into great form now so if we have cleared our minds from last week will be a great meeting. Smaller track than KL so I'll say a close one Eagles by a couple or a draw

I see spiller lives in Germany. Is this another Rob Lambert ie had to ride abroad so he could use a 500cc bike earlier.

Seems to be. He rides In a team with Bjarne Pedersen so must be higher league. Does alright for himself so can do a job at reserve in the NL

Should be an excellent meeting especially with a Raiders team growing with confidence. Key factors for me are Is Brandford riding? Who will guest for Wood? and possibly the meeting deciding factor how much will R/R bring Eastbourne?

I predict big things for Spiller but not necessarily in his first meeting.

Robert is riding.

Looks like Eastbourne could have this in bag! Team looks too good for the Raiders but that said the Raiders have improved meeting upon meeting.

 

This is threatening to be a great meeting although we may get beaten by the weather as forecast for Thursday & Friday is crap!

 

I'm going Eastbourne to win but in reality this could go either way.

Track dries out pretty quickly. Saturday forecast looks favourable

Any news on either r/r or guest for Andrews/Wood? Also, Raiders are in good form at moment so think they will just edge the win..

No news on Eastbourne website but I expect our usual R/R for wood and a guest for Andrews (Blacklock? Knuckey?) if he isn't back

As with most Raiders meetings this season, it depends on how the bottom3 perform and whether they throw away silly points. Enjoyed watching them progress this season, gutted I'm working Saturday and will miss it. Was confident of a win until reading about Eastbournes new reserve, if he is as good as some are predicting I think he will be the deciding factor .

Really looking forward to see how Danny Spiller performs, when I saw him two years ago he looked terrific. His brother Ethan is two years younger and was in the 250cc class. Apart from a retirement he was unbeaten and in the final he beat Zach Wajtknecht.

I notice last year they were both in a four man team Black Forest Eagles (Yes Really) with Max Dilger and Robert Lambert. Danny averaged 7.00 but Ethan was 7.29.

 

Will Ethan be the Eagles secret weapon next year or will he have to wait until he is 16 in 2017?
