Redcar V Berwick 23/8

The Bandits well worth their point. Wright is riding superbly, as said elsewhere, possibly the best rider seen in a Bears race jacket.

Play-offs just about nailed on for the Bears.

Good close meeting, Greaves disappointing, Leon done well but would of had Coty out 100% in heat 14, thankfully it didn’t matter but we need to use a strong reserve when they’re winning races, Summers done well and good guest in Nico, Wright was different class, enjoyable night for me though.

Very good and unexpected point for Berwick, as with last season Berwick seem to be coming with a late run but IMO will fall short of a play off place.

A long way short.

Greaves makes so many daft mistakes. He has been doing it all season but seems to be getting worse. Really struggles to get around the 1st and 2nd bends especially. 

must admit a few times i thought he was going to end up in the fence trying to get round the 1st/2nd bend

Not sure I understand all the comments regarding track grading these days. I worked for years at Cleveland Park as a track raker (remember them?) and also helped Tony Swales with track prep on a Thursday afternoon. 6 track rakers were on hand to pull back the shale from the outside of the track towards the centre and the tractor (with grader) would come out for 2 laps to distribute this after EVERY heat. No-one complained then.

 

Berwick were good value and deserved their point on a night where a few Bears were under par.

 

Loving Kasper Andersen!
