Roger Jacobs Posted September 19, 2023 Report Share Posted September 19, 2023 10 hours ago, old bob at herne bay said: Just heard that the hinges on the Ippo pit gates have been damaged by high winds this evening. Ipswich have been in touch with near neighbours Kings Lynn who apparently have experience with pit gate repairs. First indications are that it will take one week to get someone to look at the job. Except, the pit gate is nowhere near the track ... There was car racing on Saturday night, so maybe there's damage to the track - bangers with tyres missing can cause grooves.

You would hope that they have to use Harris as he was down for BV away too.. Guests are bad enough without a "Horses for Courses" approach being allowed.. Once more though, a fit for purpose RR facility would mean no guests required.. Eg. As Doyle second in the averages all riders can take his rides up to a max of seven each.. Who rides when is then down to the manager.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Harris is good at Ipswich but he is no Doyle, shame because you tend to think if there was a GP Thursday he would be riding. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I tend to agree, Emil and Danny would likely get more than Harris, Rew and Riss would probably get similar if they are used cleverly so overall probably safer bet. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doyle has already Qualified for 2024 why risk injury again we all know he takes risks other riders wouldn't ? and sometimes it's other riders faults another injury on top of last weeks could have serious problems ??

He is generally poor at Ipswich. When he rode for us he was particularly poor. Didn’t get one of his brilliant rides all season. was never his fault though.
