Now that he is unavailable because of injury, Oxford have tweeted their intention to use R/R for Jenkins at 2. Can they change their riding order at this stage? Sure it's been the case as long as I can remember with a late change leading to r/r. Had many a programme looking like a dog's dinner before the meeting started, changes to riding order and virtually every race. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It used to be that you could change the riding order if agreed by the referee and the opposition. Not sure if that is still the case. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Personally don't think it should be allowed, just messes up everyone's programme & besides there's no reason they can't use r/r at 4 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The irony of being nurtured and appreciated and scoring points for fun at Oxford v being used as a pawn and ignored by May at Plymouth might not be lost on the more understanding Plymouth fans tonight. Oxford win Not sure I understand the logic, Plymouth have him a NL spot & gave him the harder rides at number 6. Oxford gave him a NL spot but preferred Killeen to him last year (after only one NL outing). This year as at Plymouth he's been given the harder rides at number 6! Not much has changed imo (maybe it has behind the scenes) apart from Atkins scoring better. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Feel Kerr would be "wasted" having his extra ride in heat 8 (as is bound to happen). Using r/r at 4 gives Oxford a strong finish: Kerr in 12, Masters & Nicholls in 13, Kerr in 14 & 2 of them in 15.

I'm talking about using at 4 in general (not just tonight) for tactical reasons. I get the impression it's at 4 tonight because they weren't allowed to change it at short notice?
