Disappointing that Quest only showed 9 of the 15 heats.  Judging by all the comments on how good the racing was and the fact that it only takes just over one minute for a race I thought they would show all of them. :(

Agree with you Gemini - I was fortunate to be there  in the main stand just a few feet in front of the start line and in the front row - An absolute corker of a meeting and every time Belle Vue put distance between the two sides back came Peterborough - I stayed overnight and was looking forward to seeing the meeting again  on Quest that evening - Major disappointment with so many adverts and missed heats including Dan’s heat 11 (I think) victory with him making his way out to the outside line on lap 3 and building up the speed to pass MPT - A big thank you to the track staff who once again provided a cracking track for proper racers - Only downside at the meeting was how long it dragged on from the first race 18 minutes after the start time and continuous gaps to suit the Eurosport coverage - Hope the 2nd leg provides the same level of racing and good luck to both teams -

Is there a better way to fire up the home supporters than to make an announcement that a Panthers legend is riding  (If he is that is)

I just don't see how it can be allowed? I'd also be nervous about how fit Hans will be if he does ride.

Missing were heats 2 (the re-run after Hans Andersen's crash) 4, 8, 10, 11 and 14. Yet they have shown the majority of other matches that have been pretty boring. :neutral:

Rider replacement will be used if Anderson is ruled out with Panthers set to finalise their line-up today (Thursday). Monday’s guest Lewis Kerr is ineligible tonight.

He can guest for MPT if he is not fit prior to the meeting starting

Looks like Phil the Ace has taken the so called confirmation from a Manchester paper reviewing the meeting ,

The update from the official website hasn't appeared yet but midday looms is it to be confirmed then
