Endeavour Posted November 26, 2022 Report Share Posted November 26, 2022 Wish Captain Sam all the best. Been a great rider for us. Hopefully back in the blue and gold in years to come. Puzzling why this wasn’t announced last night. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Expand This would be my preference for a mix of experience, youth and potential for progression and come just within 40 ( I think ) Pickering Bailey Thomson Castagna Cook Hook Bickley I believe all the above candidates are still available and it also allows us to keep 4 of our 2022 team plus 1 "old boy" as a bonus for losing Sam.

Still risky if someone goes against their word late in the day and leave a hole not easily filled. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With the Sam news being the only news to a move yet, probably didn’t want that to be the only bit of news to put a bit of a damper on the night.

Expand I do like Lasse and he may well be favourite for the #2 spot - particularly as he is on our inventory, however I have never felt that he looked that comfortable on the Armadale track. He was certainly good at Redcar for example and looked a lot more at ease there. Having watched a few of Connor Bailey's races on his Facebook pages he would get the nod from me over Lasse. One outstanding race at Poole holding off Rory Schlein for the win showed just what he is capable of. It looks like 4.00 LF v. 4.35 CB as far as points go and out of choice I would go for the latter for 2023.
