Having seen the crowd and the way some of riders treated CLRC last year, probably right it is awarded to a lesser track

Personally thought even with a so called lesser strength line up it was a decent meeting. If the so called big boys don’t want to ride so be it . Don’t invite them back full stop .

I think that is the team 39.33, 0.67 under limit but decent team. I might have gone with MPT over Jake Allen.

 

Where is Ryan Douglas have his testimonial?

Isnt  Lambo due one?

[thebaron]

A line up that I have pencilled in. Although I also have one wihout Lambo ? Rob is usually very loyal to his riders. 

I favour going "top heavy" that way we are competitive in heats 13 & 15. Non the less 7pt + riders are thin on the ground so there is logic to your 1-7. Certainly room for all of them to add to their starting averages.

I would like to see Ryans Testimonial at Scunny. But it will depend on his main sponsors and where he races in the UK next season. Say he moved across to Birmingham for 2025 ? I would say he be just as well having the meeting at Scunny ? 

If at Leicester he has enough of a connection with the Lions crowd to get a good turn out there.

In any event Ryan would be deserving of our support for his Big Day.

I think Tofty’s last six weeks of this season put paid to him coming back , he was poor when Scunny needed him to be on top form

The infield announcer has been Kevin Moore for nearly all of the season instead of Rob. Kevin is very knowledgeable , leaving Rob to concentrate more on track grading, watering etc.

Never seen much track grading or watering during a meeting at Scunthorpe, other tracks tend to do a few during the meeting. I will say that racing is top quality at Scunthorpe, as it is at Workington , Redcar and Glasgow, these tracks alongside BelleVue are the best in the country

[Paul Johnson]

Yes Kevin is one of Lambos main sponsors and announcer at Kings Lynn i believe
