Greg has got to have a chance on any long course. Still back his fitness and flow.

I know its only timed training...but loic was right on the money and tahnee had fastest speed trap amongst the girls that matter....saturday is going to be epic

I'm going to say it again, and I'll say it till the day he retires, but Sam Hill could just pull one out here.  He's on form physically as is clear from his EWS record this year and he's been a few seconds off the box in the DHI.  This track just seems to suit him though as is evident from his MSA record.

 

Come on you tatoo'ed miserable SOB!

Ouch that looked painful. And Pompon has fooked her ankle up on a bad case, so the women's field is already thinning out...
