Tbf I thought that about Richie Worrall at Poole last Weds!

If it was down to me I'd make every rider do a victory lap after winning a race, it beats watching the tractor go around the track.

It also amazes me how many people in the crowd don't applaud a rider when they do come round on a victory lap... they're often too busy filling their programmes in!

Cook has been a bit subdued most of the season,( for him)

Expand  

I said a while back form is temporary but he just doesn’t look himself for whatever reason.

He looks like his mind is elsewhere for most of this season and the latter part of last , here’s hoping things are ok with him and we get the real Cookie back soon.

What about basso though? Haven't seen anyone throw the bike into the bends and clip the fence since peak George stancl. Great to watch even out in front

Your not wrong except for the Stancl bit his bike never usually made it to the fence.

These youngster’s have no fear or respect for reputations he is going to the top a pleasure to watch his track craft at such a young age.

George always had a spare set of Kevlars when Andre was in the same meeting.

Great meeting, and a decent choice for BSN to come. Basso shone from the start and Broc looks like he is turning the corner. Typical of Summers to put in a shift like that, we waited all of 2017 for one of those. Dishington too soft with Batch in ht9. Sarj tried the same once with Jim MacGregor and the bikes almost ran him over on the next lap before he put the red lights on.

Cook cant ride next week the way he did tonight. His off was unlucky but otherwise not really gating and lacking speed, or is it desire. Wish we could help him in some way.

Just a minor thought, but maybe time to stop him riding with the weakest 2nd string? Particularly away from home.

No easy answers, we are already sacrificing Brennan at 5 to cover for Ulle who wasnt cutting it there. Brennan is doing ok but can be up and down, putting the pressure more onto Cook to perform in ht13. Bailey deserves his chance at 2, his first time up from reserve. He'll learn from it but will need to go back there to re-find his form.

Ostergaard hasn't ridden at 5 this year, so can't say he wasn't cutting it there!
