I would say no but he will consistently score 7 at home and 3 away. At number 7 he will definitely be better than congreve Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mac101 1,201 Posted April 18, 2022 even if there’s no #1s out there get 2 decent riders that might score 8/10/12 points at home between them just off the top of my head say Palavora and sedgmen that would put wright to reserve with complin and would always have a strong reserve when ave changes strength in depth 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Maybe that is what Newcastle are doing if they see potential in the young man..? Then replace him with one of the standard of riders mentioned.... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Would be nice if we could fill that gap, but honestly,,, if we were to sign Sedgmen, it might jeopardise my relationships with some involved at Newcastle and I may have to consider my allegiances. Or Morley for that matter too! Edited April 18, 2022 by ruffdiamond Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But it did produce good racing tho 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
