The trophy should end up in Ox or Poole.

I think Leicester might be the ones to beat. I haven't seen a much better pairing than Nick Morris and Richie Worrall around Sandy Lane.

Morris has also guested for Oxford, so knows the track well.

And the Speedway GB site claims Smiler Sam is riding for Edinburgh.

But it's only a week since he had 9 screws put into his shattered collar bone - so surely not?

It's a Mickey Mouse event that presumably pays peanuts.

Rest up Sam!!

Can see the names of at least 3 riders who won't be participating for one reason or another.

Why name riders when it is obvious they won't be fit.

Advertising standards obviously don't apply to soeedway in any shape or form.

Sorry FB disagree with you on this occasion. Worrall and King should be the choice. Lawson struggled at Cowley last week. It’s difficult to pass and he struggled, not passing reserve Ruml. Steve got 4 wins on the bounce and King was very good.

Looking forward to this should be a big crowd. Anyone know the lineups?

He did claim at Glasgow last Sunday that he was hoping to ride in the pairs depending on how much movement he had in it. 
 

Personally I’d rather be left it till the leagues are back in action.

Tbf to Sam, I think he knows Edinburgh would have been favourites if he was fit. Even a half fit Sam and Edinburgh prob still favourites. But would hate for him to make it worse by riding.

Steve you don't half talk some tripe. There's been plenty of passing at Oxford this season. The reason Dickie the Gater struggles to pass is because he's Dickie the Gater.

You actually posted after your last visit that it was a good meeting

Cook is always about the movement - and what he can get away with?!:party:

What are the reason that flint and Brennan aren’t riding? Surely not saving themselves as meeting reserves for Friday where they’ll be lucky to get a ride each. Bit of a p#as take to the paying public imo.

if that is the reason then I would agree with you

SGP practice is on Friday at 3pm, I'd imagine they both want to get as much time as possible on the track at Cardiff, especially for Brennan who is riding in the main SGP2 meeting on the Sunday. 

They'll both get much more out of being at Cardiff for 3 days than riding in a Championship pairs meeting...
