    Just thought I bring this to the top to save another thread being started. It's probably too early for any news yet.
    Hope to see it at Theale.

    Going well through Theale 13:57, 5 mins BEFORE it was due through Reading (14:02). Lots of clag. Glad I gave myself a bit of time especially after 5029 Saturday. As at Ascot, still running 10-15 mins early.

    That would explain why I didn't see it if it was running early !
    Waited till 2.30pm then drove down the A329M to collect something from my son at work at Winnersh Triangle expecting to see it !
    Not my week this week as I was at Totnes yesterday & we all know what happen at Newton Abbot, Mind you seeing D1015 with 70013 was different.
