Ipswich vs Belle Vue 1/8/19

so another new riding order as KP heads to reserve and jake into the team

1 harris

2 heeps

3 king

4 allen

5 lawson

6 kennett

7 pieszczek

personally i would have gone with lawson at 2, heeps 3 and danny at 5 but hey ho, i think all the boys have shown at different time they can score from most positions in the team - either way would like to see a vastly improved performance from bomber this week - 3+1 simply not enough despite those all being vital for the win last week.

busk jakobsen in at reserve for belle vue - ironic given he essentially replaces wells his replacement at poole with Aarnio only riding a meeting or two given his recent injury woes!

 

this could be a tough meeting with fricke and bjerre at the top end, worrall and bewley still very up and down in the engine room though! will bewley be fit to ride!?

i'm confident of a home win, i'll say 50-40

We have made a bit of a habit of allowing the opposition the odd point or 3 (once) at home this season but I'm hoping for a similar victory to that achieved in the P1 fixture in April. 

I do however imagine certain Aces riders may well be a bit better than last time around and it could be a bit closer or very tight. 

We do definitely need the win though with the Pie Rats guaranteed 3 pts at home to the Pussy cats on Thursday, just to keep in touch with the top of the table. 

Let's hope the weather is kind and we get to see 15 heats and a victory of course !

Swedes playing games again ??  Fricke has been named in the Rospiggarna team riding at Masarna on Thursday.

Am i dim (don't answer that) but isn't Thursday a protected UK race day? so therefore has precedence and the Swedes can go forth and multiply by 1.4

Straight forward win for Ipswich, as the aces are pretty dire on their travels, apart from the odd occasion.  The Witches are now at their weakest line up with both Heeps and Allen in the main team. 

Being positive it is a case of Heeps and Allen performing well rather than KP dropping down as such

Yes, but what I'm saying is I would rather have Allen and Heeps having 7 rides rather than Nuts and Teddy.  So in my mind this is our weakest line up. Not that it's a bad thing as riders have done well to get to this line up. Am I making more sense now? 

KP seems to regularly improve massively in second half of the meeting at Foxhall as the track changes - often pops out and wins ht13, so could see him picking up rides towards the end and could be very useful at this stage in close meetings

Can’t see an edit button anywhere? Maybe cos I’m on my phone and the mobile layout is somewhat simplified

If you click go to the post where you started the thread there should be an edit option  like what you have on your normal posts when you need to edit..
