Meeting abandoned after 9 heats
Once again the weather did its best
to defeat the return of the Dons to
the track at the Wessex tonight. Racing
started on a wet track with light rain
falling. The rain rain did not let up
and after already taking a break to
discuss track conditions with the riders
a few heats previously the referee stopped
racing during heat ten after having
to put the red lights on when both Tom
Brown and Brendan Johnson both slipped
off in separate incidents on the first
lap. The track now very wet and slushy
in the interests of rider safety the
meeting was abandoned with the score
at 29 to the Wildcats, 25 to the Dons.
As track conditions deteriorated the
racing was unsurprisingly mostly from
the gate and Wildcats super fast gater
Jay Herne made the most of it recording
a win from each of his three rides.
After being pushed wide from second
place in his first ride causing him
to fall and eventually retire after
remounting in his first ride Brendan
Johnson also got the measure of the
tricky conditions and came back to record
two straight wins from his remaining
rides. The first of which saw Johnson
with team mate Armstrong backing him
up claim the Wildcats fist 5-1 to snatch
the lead from the Dons after they claimed
a 5-1 in heat two to edge ahead in the
early stages. Kyle Newman had an expensive
night when his engine blew in heat four
whilst running second to team mate Herne.
Ex-Wildcat Terry Day and Jerran Hart
led the way for the Dons both recording
6 paid 7 from three rides.
