If you dissect his Howarth's latest score some of the points were gifted and he had 5 rides. Despite him having the odd good meeting over the years Poole hasn't always been a happy hunting ground for him. In my opinion it would be a bit of a surprise if he got more than 5 from 4 rides. On the other hand Thorsell takes one of his rides and it hasn't always been a good track for Jacob either but I would expect r/r to get more than 5 so I suggest they are marginally stronger with r/r.
He seems to have improved a lot this season and fair play to Wolves for seeing his potential and snapping him up. I can't think swapping Ashley Morris for Douglas took much thought!!
I wonder is Ryan Douglas was available to us before Wolves signed him because he was always going to be a big improver considering his start to the season.
