Wright has never been that great at Foxhall - yes, he beat our reserves and Riss there this year, not many riders didn't! He had one victory over Emil when Emil made a shocking gate and was in last and took a while to get past Brennan. Ipswich are stronger now than they were earlier in the year. As always, meetings are not won on paper and I'm really looking forwards to see how tonight pans out. Charles's scores at Foxhall this season 9 and 8. RR last Thursday 3.

I know that but it doesn't change the fact that he's only beaten one rider of note, which was due to their awful start. Given the fact Ipswich have improved as an outfit recently, Rew and Riss in particular, I don't think he'd have score much more than the RR score. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Buttons 370 Posted September 25, 2023 (edited) Belle Vue need to gate if they are to have any chance tonight, something they didn't do at Ippo. Edited September 25, 2023 by Buttons Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Daniel Smith 5,665 Posted September 25, 2023 With no football on the box I'm just glad Discovery ain't at Monmore. 50-40 Belle Vue 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
szkocjasid 3,029 Posted September 25, 2023 I'll go for Belle Vue 52-38 Ipswich. Witches top 2, to score enough that the rest of the side only need a few points each. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ok well just looked at his scores, definite miss tonight though as two of his rides are covered by reserves and unless Blodorn or Bailey is on fire he will be a big miss. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

A lot easier if you gate, Ipswich top riders are all good gaters although King was not his best last night but was flying at Ipswich the other night so who knows but on his day he can beat anyone.
