Heat 1 LINDBACK 2 SULLIVAN  3 Iversen 4  Tressarieu                   5-1                                       Lindback quick to front and Ryan muscled his way by the Robins guest for an opening  5-1

Heat 2  1 Davidsson 2 Alden 3 ASHWORTH  4 JOHANSSON          1-5                     6  -  6      All

square with comprehensive reserve 5-1

Heat 3   1 FERJAN 2 Gjedde  3 PEDERSEN  4 Korneliussen            4-2                  10 - 8     Loads of positional changes between Gjedde and Bjarne, the last one coming on lap 4  as Gjedde  took second place  

Heat 4  1 Richardson  2 Davidsson  3 KASPRZAK  4 ASHWORTH (fell)  1-5           11 - 13    Krys lost best part of a lap trying to pass Ricky and the Robins made the pace    

Heat 5  1 PEDERSEN  2 FERJAN  3 Iversen  4 Tressarieu               5-1                      16 - 14   the much needed maximum scores came this time from Bjarne and Matej; the Robins this time racing themselves not the Pirates.

Heat 6  1 Alden  2 Richardson  3 SULLIVAN  4 LINDBACK                1-5                       17 - 19  From the gate the Robins flew as the red was not on their breasts but the Pirates faces.  

Heat 7  1 Gjedde  2 KASPRZAK  3 Korneliussen  4 JOHANSSON    2-4                        19-  23 Gjede rode superb 1st curve to catch Krys unawares, and the Pirates are looking in some trouble tonight

Heat 8  Alen replaces Tressarieu in this heat (I don't know why except that he has no points)

Heat 8  1. Davidsson  2 LINDBACK  3 Alden  4 ASHWORTH               2-4                       21 - 27 Davidsson repeated his U21 exploits with win over Antonio and Robins extend further lead.

Heat 9   1FERJAN  2 PEDERSEN  3 Richardson  4 Alden (fell)           5-1                        26- 28 Matej had a comfortable ride but Bjarne had to work really hard, very hard, exceptionally hard to hold off Richardson.

Heat 10  1 SULLIVAN  2 LINDBACK  3 Gjedde  4 Korneliussen          5-1                         31 - 29 No support from Ryan, Antonio had to do all the work to hold off Gjedde, not lonce did the skipper look back

Heat11 Ashworth replaces Johansson              Reckless move by Tressarieu brings down Ricky The Frenchman excluded. Ricky back on his feet, shaken but not stirred!

Heat 11  1.KASPRZAK  2.Iversen  3 ASHWORTH  4 Tressarieu (exc)    4-2               35 - 31 Krys was fast away and Ricky tried hard in early stagesto threaten Iversen but Poole go into inrterval 4 points up

Message from Steve Belle Vue in lead by 6 oints after 9 heats aat Arena.

In heat 12  Davidsson replaces Korneliussen

Heat 12  1 FERJAN  2 Alden 3 Davidsson 4 ASHWORTH                        3-3             38 - 34     Matej has completed his programmed paid maximum. Ricky was in the action early on but then faded

Heat 13  1 KASPRZAK 2 SULLIVAN  3 Richardson 4 Iversen                  5-1             43 - 35   Krys  from the gate and Ryan shrugged off first Iversen  then kept Richardson at bay to provide an 8point cushion

Swindon are trying to use Gjedde as tac.sub(15m) but he is programmed in the heat so cant be used. Rosco is not a happy bunny  (Steves words verbatim)

Heat 14  1 PEDERSEN 2 Gjedde  3 Davidsson   4 JOHANSSON         3-3               46 - 38   Winning ride for Bjarne but surely Swindon missed the trick by not using LeeRichardson as a tac sub!!

Heat 15 gates b1 and 3 line up Red Ferjan  |Blue  Pedersen  Green Richardson Yellow Gjedde  Belle vuehave won at Arena and got the bonus point as well.

Heat 15  1 PEDERSEN 2 Richardson 3 FERJAN  4 Gjedde              4-2                 50 - 40   Cat-and-mouse shoulder to shoulder stuff from Bjarne and Lee, Matej getting third after jedde spun out

10 point victory in the end but sounds asif they had to work for it tonight.
