Agree it would be a very strange choice of rider. But a rider can be hopeless at a track but if he rides it every week will soon find the right lines and improve. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But articles obviously get more views with "sensational" headlines! It is not just about HL top 3 but 2nd strings & where riders could improve. We saw in both Cooks after the league fixtures finished what they could do scoring impressively in Play Offs & KOC. Ben could be their 3rd HL but I thinks Poole's plans, A-B-C, is about getting the right visa & qualification rights & bring in both Rew & Zischke of which Rew could end up 3rd HL. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which is what we are hoping for in J Thompson as he scores well at U17, U19 U21 meetings when he gates or gets in front but more to learn when mixing it, catching & overtaking at CL level.
