Thankyou Wolfgang. This was what I was missing. I think I was not
understanding the purpose of the width parameter.

Your inbetween setting is ignored because \blank is a command to add
vertical space but the text of your enumeration is on the same line as the
content and you need a horizontal space.
To control the spacing you can change the width of the text with the ?width?
key and the distance between the text and the content with the ?distance?
key.
\starttext
\defineenumeration[ref][alternative=left,width=2cm,distance=5mm]
\startref Testing \stopref
\startref Testing \stopref
\stoptext
