Just read on Facebook, apparently for v Peterborough this coming Thursday they ride Jason Keynan Emil Eric Danny Danyon Joe But as last year Ritchie will change order as and when. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Witches1998 3 Posted March 17, 2023 Was at meet the riders and Hawkins said riding order for next week would be 1) Doyle 2) Rew 3) King 4) Riss 5) Emil 6) Hume 7) Thompson. Also that it would change throughout season. And also that for away they might move Rew away from number 2 so he could watch a couple races first. Unless he changed his mind after saying it when interviewed on stage 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Can’t have everything. Rew will be absolutely sound by the way, this boy is talented and the Ipswich fans will enjoy watching him. Has a style that will make him very popular. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Unless he changed his mind after saying it when interviewed on stage I think it would make perfect sense to put Rew at 4 for the A away matches, can put him at 2 at home & for B fixtures away.

Isn't riding at 4 harder though, as l you have more of the outside gates, whereas riding at 2 you have inside more. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I hadn't put any thought into the gates, inside might be better one day but worse the next. I guess ideally tracks should have the gates as equal as possible. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It doesn’t matter what position you ride at, you have a ride off each starting position anyway. The only difference is between home and away, which order you get the inside and outside.

It does at home,,, and on small tracks,,, maybe at a track like Belle Vue where first into the first bend doesn't often win the race Rew would be good at 2,,, it should be horses for courses,,, but I certainly wouldn't be starting the season with Rew at 2,, Riss would be at 2 Rew at 4 until its seen how Rew gets on with the track Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
