ReadingRacer2017 Posted March 17, 2018 Report Share Posted March 17, 2018 (edited) 1. Craig Cook 2. Steve Worrall 3. Rohan Tungate 4. Damian Drozdz 5. Max Fricke 6. Dan Bewley 7. Jye Etheridge 1. Nick Morris 2. Adam Ellis 3. Troy Batchelor 4. David Bellego 5. Tobiasz Musielak 6. Zach Wajtknecht 7. Mitchell Davey Can see Belle Vue winning the first leg by a good 15-20 points. A narrow Robins win in the return leg. If Drozdz hits the ground running, the Aces have a formidable top 6. The Robins look weak at reserve, will need Musielak to carry on 2017 form but as a heatleader. Still unsure about Bellego, Swindon will have a big hitter at number 4 if he can rediscover his early season form from 2017.

WestGorton1884 Posted March 17, 2018 Report Share Posted March 17, 2018 If the photographs from BVs P&P day are anything to go off , it looks like Drozdz will line up at 4 with Tungate ? Its possible Drozdz and Etheridge may struggle initially, so im going for a narrow Aces win Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ouch Posted March 17, 2018 Report Share Posted March 17, 2018 Having Damian and Rohan paired together at home should work, away it will leave us weak in those heats. Craig and Steve are our two best away riders going off last years averages so pairing them together away is a waste imo. Maybe we will have a different home and away line up or the numbers on the race suit were there before positions have been sorted. Steve should be placed in a HL position in a season when he needs to step up consistently at that level. With regards the result it should be comfortable for The Aces but early season meetings can often throw up odd results. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hyderd Posted March 17, 2018 Report Share Posted March 17, 2018 could go either way, 1st match of the season, cobwebs still to be blown off,like for like I think it's pretty even other than the reserves, this is where Belle Vue are notably better. I'll put my neck on the line and say a narrow home win. 4-6 points. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sidney the robin Posted March 17, 2018 Report Share Posted March 17, 2018 I fancy a ten point or more home win for the Aces, the sides look closely matched but the Aces have a big advantage at reserve.For Swindon i believe Zach and Adam can improve and i actually think Nick can add more consistency to his performances.For the home side Fricke /Bewley/Tungate can all improve and i believe Etheridge will chip in as well with points i hope it is a entertaining meeting i can't wait for the return match on Thursday. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bagpuss Posted March 17, 2018 Report Share Posted March 17, 2018 Agree about Worrall, will be good for his development to get him away from number two. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A ORLOV Posted March 17, 2018 Report Share Posted March 17, 2018 Being the first meeting I would give BV a slight advantage on their home track but that will be reversed next thurs, overall it could go to either team. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stevebrum Posted March 17, 2018 Report Share Posted March 17, 2018 Close season early fixture with no known form to base any real opinion so I'd say a small home win of 6-10 points. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WestGorton1884 Posted March 17, 2018 Report Share Posted March 17, 2018 Looking forward to seeing the young Pole, though not expecting too much this early in the season Riding at number 3 is certainly a tough start Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Simply to hide him a little bit in the early part of the season. Is the weather going to be ok? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Catalan Posted March 18, 2018 Report Share Posted March 18, 2018 Thought you were supposed to name nominated charity before saying something is for charity. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Snow today but forecast sunny intervals Monday? Hopefully the melting snow won't have to much effect on the track Edited March 18, 2018 by WestGorton1884 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
