Arch Stanton 2,267 Posted April 11, 2023 https://ipswichwitches.co/raceday-preview-belle-vue-premiership-r1-h/ R/R for Riss, not sure where though. The line ups have R/R at 2 which is the traditional place to have it, although in the story it says R/R will be utilized at number 4. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Falcon1983 557 Posted April 11, 2023 (edited) I'd run R/R at 2 personally Put Hume out in the first 2, Rew in the 3rd and Danny in the 4th Think this could be extremely close 46-44 Edited April 11, 2023 by Falcon1983 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TTT 1,252 Posted April 11, 2023 BV will be in big bother if they can't beat a weakened Ipswich side imo. Ipswich' tail end will have to take 14 rides on the night while BV will have the luxury of giving an Ekstraliga rider (Lidsey) 7 rides. Dan Bewley's performance on the night will be the deciding factor as to where the league points go imo. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

We’ve won both meetings so far 48-42 and that score looks about right either in victory, or defeat. The bottom three have scored 7 and 10 between them in the two meetings and will be the obvious area other teams will target. On the flip side, a top end of Doyle Emil King and Riss will score enough between them even in away meetings to not get on the end of a hiding. I’ll go for another 48-42!

If Hume goes in heat 1 & beats Blodorn, then beats Mulford (or guest) in heat 2, I'd be putting him in heat 8. As much as a team has a plan, there's no reason for the TM to have to stick to it.

Aries 443 Posted April 12, 2023 I’d personally be leaving Rew til the 4th programmed ride whilst he’s still learning. I was there last week and he looked shaky in his first few rides, but much more comfortable and quicker when the track slickened off in his 4th ride. Hume first 2, then King, then Rew. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wtf 621 Posted April 12, 2023 Can't see Bewley and Brady and Lidsey enjoying Foxhall until it slickens off later in the night. By then Ipswich should be far enough ahead to protect a lead in 13 and 15 particularly Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Wright and Brennan again hit and miss - Brennan tends to improve as the track slickens off later in the meetings at Foxhall tho also 50-40 home win I reckon Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mikebv 10,337 Posted April 13, 2023 Kurtz double figures for the Aces off six rides.. No one else getting that many. Bewley has too many rides against Emil and Doyle which will lower his score considerably, 8 or so would be my guess.. Wright good for a solid half dozen, probably no wins, but no lasts either.. For the rest? 12 - 14 points between them I would think would be a measure of their "Foxhall Level"... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
