Steve Shovlar Posted October 24, 2021 Report Share Posted October 24, 2021 Now entering the final week of the season, we have the second leg of the KO Cup final on Wednesday. Pirates have a 5 point lead from the first leg and are favourites to lift the cup. At the moment a dry day is forecast. As Poole have been rock solid at home so far this season, it’s going to take a monumental effort from the Monarchs to turn this one around. Highly unlikely but not impossible. Will they do it? I don’t think so. 50-40. Thoughts? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LisaColette Posted October 24, 2021 Report Share Posted October 24, 2021 Zach can't guest on Weds and Friday then? Is that just for the no1s? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LisaColette Posted October 24, 2021 Report Share Posted October 24, 2021 Won't be him then! Haven't looked at averages recently, what about Bickley? Only needs to get a couple of points really. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MartinBSN Posted October 25, 2021 Report Share Posted October 25, 2021 It appears Jack Thomas is in for Tuesday at Glasgow so could be him? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have the amazing Basso. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shame he didn't have it when guesting for us, I like Jack he is a fast starter, was gutted that he did so well for Birmingham 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank goodness as we would be a bit limited as not allowed the same guest on the same track within 7 days. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Shovlar Posted October 25, 2021 Author Report Share Posted October 25, 2021 Zaine Kennedy? Had about 2 decent rides in 20 around Poole. Fact out front but nowhere if he misses it. Good luck to him though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr Blobby Posted October 25, 2021 Report Share Posted October 25, 2021 (edited) Could run with a NL wobbler don’t think it will make a difference. Edited October 25, 2021 by Mr Blobby Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Though Zaine does seem to improve each time he comes. Though it should be slightly easier riding for Poole at Poole than against I think.

Edit - last 2 visits for Leicester 5 and 4. One time same score as Douglas and both times outscoring Hume.. So if he can get 4/5 again that will be fine!

Zaine Kennedy is not that good at his own track let alone at Poole! He may have got 5 and 4 points but he had 6/7 rides!
