Great meeting, but thought we might have blown it in ht12.
Was there not a case for Heeps to go off 15mts in ht 6 after Coles had failed to clear the track ???
One of three 5-1 that turned out to be 3-3's, can't it away from Edinburgh for effort tho, or Paul Starke for his good contribution too.
Yes, but with internal problems like that, you sometimes have to replace the whole body,,, whereas you don't really need an appendix, unless you're gonna start eating grass.
Choices are probly made at the time, sometimes they'll work and sometimes not. Ully could have taken a ride and Max only used to replace riders that were struggling. A suppose no-one knows exactly how riders are gonna perform, but once the meeting gets started, its down to hope.
I get what your saying, but that would've meant dropping the guest after his first 'scheduled' ride. Then you've still got to get him out again for 2 rides, thats if he's not in a huff
Don't suppose it helped that Max was paired with Coty in ht12, which may have meant putting Max up against Wells and Pav in ht10, maybe too much of an ask to try and gain an advantage there.
Nevermind, a cup final is up for grabs t'morro and Starkey usually gives it a decent go at Brough.
Not sure when we named him, but I was just referring to guests in general. Anyhow, at least there's one less person we need to ask when we need a hand,,, every cloud and that
Must say tho, was surprised that Coty got 5 rides.
Edinburgh probly wanted a bigger cushion and Newcastle a smaller one, not saying the Diamonds can't turn it round, but we can't afford any slackers on Sunday.
