He could be seen as a upgrade as he is not a reserve for his team. Has Jensen ridden Foxhall before? 

Jensen has a couple of times I believe. Rode for Workington in 2018 scored 15+2 and Somerset 2016. But dont think he rode 

In the Workington match. Ipswich ended with 4 riders... already using RR for Heeps when Hume and Jeppersen also withdrew through injury

Howarth is in no way an upgrade on Jake Allen around Foxhall

Hopefully he can chip in with 7 or so....but Jake got 16 in the earlier fixture

I do think we could struggle in this one.................Swindon are my tips for the title.......if we can win this then we are serious contenders

Pre season for me Swindon were 2nd favourites behind Wolves

Between Wolves issues with injuries and Swindons changes I think the Robins are now in pole position

Any Witches win in this one will be a great achievement and a real boost. If we slip to a defeat (whilst disappointing) it shouldnt be seen as anything more negative

I still think the lads can take this despite the challenges

I didn't say he was an upgrade but could be seen as a upgrade as he rides at number 2. He got paid 9 from that position and Allen would not get many more riding at 2. I would expect Howarth to get a good score against Swindon with their reserves. I would fancy Ipswich beating Swindon over 2 legs especially with your home track advantage. On the subject of reserves how are Swindon allowed a facility for Zach when he isn't injured and apparently taking a break from the sport.

Because he is deemed as withholding his services meaning a 28 day ban

So you can only have a facility for 28 days. Until then you can try all sorts of alternatives to make sure you get the best alternative.

Which is the standard position that would apply to every team.....

Yes I know but why should you be allowed to drop any out of form rider and have guests for 28 days until you have to replace them, they should be replaced immediately like Perks for Shanes.

not an upgrade for sure but him scoring 7 at no.2 for wolves earlier in the season. if he can get double figures as he'll possibly take 5 rides would be alot better than any of the other guests we've had this season

He dropped himself so should be immediately replaced, I don't really know why you don't get Starke in permanently anyway seems to be doing a reasonable job.

Lets see tomorrow and monday

i agree he isnt a bad guest 

but he wont match what Jake scored and i would only expect 7 or 8 from Howarth
