Bojangles Posted July 4, 2023 Report Share Posted July 4, 2023 Oxford to maintain their unbeaten start? A win would see the Cheetahs go nine points clear at the top. Cheetahs: 1. Sam Masters, 2. Henry Atkins, 3. Lewis Kerr, 4. Jordan Jenkins, 5. Scott Nicholls, 6. Cameron Heeps, 7. Ryan Kinsley. Bandits: 1. Rory Schlein, 2. Jye Etheridge, 3. Jonas Knudsen, 4. Leon Flint, 5. Thomas Jorgensen, 6. Jacob Hook, 7. Connor Coles. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anzum Posted July 4, 2023 Report Share Posted July 4, 2023 Can see this being close. Knudsen was very good last year scoring 13+1. Flint likes the place too. Berwick won easily last year despite Etheridge having to withdraw after winning his only completed ride. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DSC67 Posted July 4, 2023 Report Share Posted July 4, 2023 It will probably be tight up until about ht 10 , then I'd expect the Cheetahs to pull away in the second half of the meeting Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very different Oxford heat leader trio, can see easy Oxford win. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
szkocjasid Posted July 4, 2023 Report Share Posted July 4, 2023 If Oxford can win at Berwick without Kerr, then they should get a very comfortable win at home. I'll predict an Oxford win by 1 or more points (all they need for the bonus lol) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bandit59 Posted July 4, 2023 Report Share Posted July 4, 2023 Will it be another "unlucky Bandits loss"" that is the question? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MilhouseZmarzlik Posted July 5, 2023 Report Share Posted July 5, 2023 Cheetahs will smash the bandits, Oxford a different team to last season. Badnits pretty poor away and Leon not riding well anywhere this season Does anyone know if Oxford have free parking? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Technik Posted July 5, 2023 Report Share Posted July 5, 2023 I think this will be closer than expected, yesterdays heavy rain may make the track a little grippy. I think an Oxford win but only by 8 points. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BacktrackBandit Posted July 5, 2023 Report Share Posted July 5, 2023 Another comfortable away win at Oxford for the Bandits I think. With what it lacks in firepower, Berwick’s 1 to 5 certainly makes up for it with strength in depth and with arguably the best reserve pairing in the league, it’s sure to be a tricky night for the Cheetahs. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BackstaightBandit Posted July 5, 2023 Report Share Posted July 5, 2023 Disappointing that the Bandits didn’t get some valuable track time at Plymouth last night but it was rather wet. I can’t see that dampening the team spirit though as they look to claw back the Cheetahs advantage from the first leg. A tough ask but not an impossible one for a more than capable Bandits squad who have some track specialists in their midst. I fancy this one to go all the way. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
