My advice is when you are not riding watch some UK all-weather Racing and see how they do it

Difference between the UK and Fairview is the size of fields

They might also learn something from watching racing from Hong Kong and Singapore. I too have zero experience in horseriding, but it seems to my novice eye, when I watch local racing, that most of the race is nothing more than a procession, followed by a 400 metre dash.
Watching racing from these Asian venues might help them to remember where the phrase 'jockeying for position' came from.

easy i watch jocks getting murdered on the bends at Kempton and Wolves all the time,what`s your point?
Lite approval needs cover, so you want him to come wide under no cover?

Is this possible,on the poly.
Furrow the inside a tad deeper in the short straight and leave say 4 horses width of the rail furrowed shallower.
That way if it's SLIGHTLY faster wide,maybe jocks will fan out like Lingfield.
