2ndbendbeerhut 1,781 Posted December 9, 2016 Stick Rory at 2... 1st race off the inside and easy heat 8 for him to win. Could score a fair few 5 1s with King too. Ave wouldn't increase too much but hey ho 😉 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Alan R Horne 33 Posted December 9, 2016 Stick Rory at 2... 1st race off the inside and easy heat 8 for him to win. Could score a fair few 5 1s with King too. Ave wouldn't increase too much but hey ho That will be fine for Rory but will it be best for the Witches team on the whole and obviously us fans who pay everyones wages? Personally I think not as where will Cameron ride? It will mean almost certainly he will ride at 3 or 4 with Kyle and wouldn't want to see that. Why don't we all put our personal preference for riding order. Mine is - 1. King 2. Heeps 3. Schlien 4. Newman 5. Covatti 6. Mountain 7. Hume Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dontforgetthefueltapsbruv 10,714 Posted December 9, 2016 I dont see any likelyhood of the 1-7 lining up any differently to that predicted by Mr H. Perhaps if Rory starts to really fly he may move to 5. The only other switch could be reversing 3 and 4 depending on who you want in heat 14. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hume either as you've suggested alan or perhaps swap newman to 5 and have a powerful 3&4 in schlein and covatti, can't see the benefit in putting schlein at 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
2ndbendbeerhut 1,781 Posted December 9, 2016 Whoever is at 2 will have a low ave as they will be riding with King, just look at Manzares and Sarjaent in the last couple of years. If a stronger rider is it 2 it would reduce Danny's ave too.... not a bad thing? At home shouldnt matter where they ride as should be strong enough to cope.

Baldyman 6,243 Posted December 9, 2016 Heeps can't gate for diddly squat, which isn't great for getting off on a 5-1 in heat one, but because of that reason he has to go at 2. I would start Rory at 3, but move him to 5 if he rides as good as I think he will. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gavan 5,067 Posted December 9, 2016 Why not have Kyle at number 2? Would be far more confident with him in heat 8 (i think thats right?) then Heeps Could see Danny and Kyle with a few 5-1's which i couldnt see with Heeps at 2. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Baldyman 6,243 Posted December 9, 2016 What about it it's a tight meeting and heeps is in 14?? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dontforgetthefueltapsbruv 10,714 Posted December 9, 2016 What about it it's a tight meeting and heeps is in 14??well he would be there because the switch has resulted in 5-1 in 1 8 and 12 according to the other posts so unlikely to be tight and so doesnt matter.With no pressure Cam will probably win 14 to make it something like 55-29 and all is well 😉😛 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

2ndbendbeerhut 1,781 Posted December 10, 2016 Should get rid of the rule that your no1 has to be at 1. Better if King was at 5? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Panthers89 1,922 Posted December 10, 2016 King Newman Heeps Schlein Covatti Hume Mountain IMO is your best riding order Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Super Blue 616 Posted December 10, 2016 King Newman Heeps Schlein Covatti Hume Mountain IMO is your best riding order If the new track shape and material works well for Nico you're probably right on that lineup given his lack of gating prowess. If not then there is the weakness when he rides with the reserves. But I'm sure we'll probably have to wait till just before the new season before we find out the official riding order.

Panthers89 1,922 Posted December 10, 2016 Just think Covatti and Heeps would be an awful combination 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
