Badge Posted May 23, 2023 Report Share Posted May 23, 2023 I'm sure I read that poor Lawson not riding due to his off last night, no broken bones but lung damage so in hospital for a couple of days. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Arch Stanton Posted May 24, 2023 Report Share Posted May 24, 2023 R/R for Lawson. Fricke, Harris, Morris and Sedgmen taking an extra ride certainly doesn’t weaken them around Foxhall. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was at the Leicester cup meeting a few weeks back and Lawson was poor. All four who can take his rides comfortably out scored him and all four are better than him around Ipswich! Could be very very tight. Ipswich will need Rew to continue his improved Foxhall form here. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I dunno, I’d say Lawson is better than all 4 of them at Foxhall tbh, but it’s not an r/r that leaves Leicester wide open like it can sometimes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ve always found Lawson hit and miss around Foxhall. He openly admits he’s not keen on the track. He had one cracking meeting the season before we signed him where he got 17 I think. That was the exception rather than the rule though and he’s looked patchy here ever since. Aries is right, he was pretty poor earlier this season in the cup, scoring 5 and not threatening to win a race. I think they’re stronger with R/R especially with Fricke now on his game. Both Harris and Sedgmen rode for us and were pretty cr@p but rather annoyingly, have been a pain in the rear end on their visits since! Morris is decent around here too, probably one of his better away tracks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baldyman Posted May 24, 2023 Report Share Posted May 24, 2023 Lawson raced for Ipswich,,, think he achieved a 5 and half ish average,,, so hardly great round Foxhall,,, another rider that once had a good meeting at Foxhall,, but is seen as a track expert in some eyes,,,, dakota north,, Lewis Kerr other riders like it,, one good meeting once and sign em up and then mostly poor Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
89buttons Posted May 24, 2023 Report Share Posted May 24, 2023 I guess Lawson always seems decent to me at Foxhall cos he’s a gater. Big plus at Foxhall Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baldyman Posted May 24, 2023 Report Share Posted May 24, 2023 (edited) Oh yeah,,, I forgot about PK,,, he was the mutts nuts Loram and Boyce were also fantastic,, unfortunately we got them both on the last knockings of their careers Some riders do only seem to have one good meeting at certain tracks,,, eg Bobby Miskoviak,,, think it was 21 at lakeside and 17 at Wolves,, or the other way round,,,, never scored that many again if you add all his visits together Edited May 24, 2023 by Baldyman 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saw him once "fall off", but kept hold of the bike whilst he slid along the track, and then, all in one motion without stopping, lifted the bike up with him astride it, and rode off down the home straight.. Unfortunately Ronnie Correy had seen him "fall off" from a few yards behind so had laid his bike down in a similar slide to Bobby to avoid contact.. Correy waved to the ref who stopped the race and excluded Bobby.. He was not impressed... Last heat of the season 1993, Monmore Green....
