Recommended Posts

So far you have

Cook/ Fricke

Holder/ Lambert

Nilsson/ Wolbert

Kasprzak/ Kurtz

Tungate/ Hougaard

Doyle/ Morris

Lindgren/ Thorssell

Add probably Kennett/ Harris

 

That looks a great lineup with only Nilsson, Kasprzak, Lindgren and Thorssell which haven't ridden competitively at the OTA which I can't see being a problem for good riders like them. I can't say a favourite as each has their flaws and pros. Wouldn't count Tungy and Hougaard out either, Tungate is a different rider at the oak tree and Hougaard will be desperate to show what he can do.

Kim Nilsson has ridden twice competitively at the OTA scoring 5 & 12 points respectively when he was with Newport.

I think the Belle Vue Monarchs / Aces will be the pair to beat, we all know how Cookie and Max go there:-)

Really? I think with the exception of Leicester any pair could win it.

Can't see Somerset or Leicester winning it to be honest. Kings Lynn to win is my prediction. Probably based on how quick Lambert looked once he got dialled in after his appearances last year.
