That should leave us around 4:88 for the 6th rider. Sounding like Lewis Kerr won't be available, so possible targets who would fit the bill. Paul Starke Jake Allen Stefan Nielsen Ben Cook Zach Cook Kye Thomsen Connor Mountain Dimitri Berge Ben Barker Personally my choice would be Ben Cook or Dimitri Berge. The Rising Star riders realistic possible targets Connor Bailey (If Tom Brennan is given a Rising Star Place) Jack Thomas Drew Kemp Jason Edwards Dan Gilkes Joe Thompson Jordan Jenkins For me either Dan Gilkes or Connor Bailey would be my choice. Expand Is Kemp a RS? He wasn't last year for Wolves. It was Leon Flint. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Expand Surprised only 5.8 average. The strong top 2 were announced previously. On 11/17/2022 at 10:52 PM, lisa-colette said: Is Kemp a RS? He wasn't last year for Wolves. It was Leon Flint.

Gilkes was good at Perry Barr in 2021 but only seen him once Why the clamour for Bailey? Never seen him ride AFAIK but only averages 4.8 at Championship level.

Be under 25 or have less than 3 years experience in the top league And 2.

A year too soon I think. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PhilTheAce Posted November 18, 2022 Report Share Posted November 18, 2022 Would be a great signing. Gilkes would be my no1 choice for the RS but we have last pick so we will be left with what’s left. Imagine it will be Bailey Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Imagine it will be Bailey Expand Presume the rider himself can just say "No" until the track he wants to ride at finally has a pick? If so, Bailey would be "ok" at the NSS as the RS... Very much a large track rider who significantly outperforms his overall average at certain specific tracks... Getting the aggregate bonus point, with large home wins, is the key so I am sure he will he able to help do that at the NSS... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RideHard Posted November 21, 2022 Report Share Posted November 21, 2022 Holder, Howarth, Ellis, Bellego, Musielak, Kerr, RS. Kerr riding like a heat leader for us when he signed last year if he can get near that form he will end up riding at 2 and Kyle at reserve which you’d think he’d be more than handy especially at home. We know Bellego flys around Owlerton and hopefully Ellis can have an injury free year. No pressure on the RS just like Connor last year took him half of season to get there but he was great for us in the play offs and cup final Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
