Bruiser 120 Posted November 19, 2022 12 hours ago, Col said: Lidsey yes, must have developed since he last rode here. Blodorn attained that average from being at reserve all year, he could suffer a sophomore slump. I don't really understand the decision of retaining Kurtz over Fricke. Fricke is the better rider & the averages are very similar. Plus no loan fee. Can't imagine Leicester are paying Fricke mega bucks. Kurtz for me is now a better rider than Fricke and I would definitely have chosen him if it was a straight choice Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
