Looks like there were only two riders in this....Nice one Batch!

Batchelor and Fricke were head and shoulders better than the rest. Batchelor drew inside Fricke in heat 19, narrowly got to turn one first and didn't make a mistake. Picked red in the final and won the battle of the elbows into turn 1 with Fricke (blue) and again was faultless after that. Pickering was the hard luck story, couldn't get out the gate and was passing people for fun after that. Beaten on a countback for the last automatic place in the final, then gated third in the B final and missed out by a poofteenth when narrowly failing to catch Stewart. With a position in the final having British visa qualification hanging off it Pickering would see it as the one that got away. Stewart on the other hand was rapt to the eyeballs.
