Great to see Batch get a paid max, hope he can carry it through to his Sheffield performances.Really surprised Bowtell only scored 2 from four rides and great to see Thomas score well for Kent.

Hoping he doesn't get the chance to carry it through to Sheffield to be honest

could've been worse, imagine Flint or Dan Thompson replacing Freeman!

Can't imagine it as both of those riders were in the same U19 Final meeting that Archie was in. :o

What is Batchelor doing at this level, other than making easy money of course?
 

Nice to see Max Clegg back to 2019 form.

For Batchelor read a great many more...

Hence teams are struggling at the 2nd tier level due to the costs involved in paying many 1st tier heat leaders..

I don't think Batchelor is finding it easy money in the Championship.  He has been beaten many times and even had the occasional last place.

No surprise really as he is riding against virtually all the same riders he rides against in tier one..

My point was he shouldnt be singled out given so many tier one riders are doing exactly the same..

It’s the pay rates for these “dropping a league “ riders that’s the problem.

Somebody has got to agree to pay them, you can't blame a rider for being overpaid, when a promoter agrees to pay it. Its a bit like people blaming MacDonald's for being fat.
