Just as well give their own rider the extra money than paying a guest (probably a guarantee).

Seems to be the case these days if you want a guest they want a set guarantee. Which is normally way above what they’re worth. Then they hardly try a leg as they’ve got their money.

its a cop out ? how ?

several riders were asked and refused. (remember can only get riders who never made the pay-off's) 

what's the point of paying a second string rider loads of money, better giving our own riders a chance to earn more. 

What’s the point? Because people paid £19 to watch decent racing and the Monarchs “no1” scored 3 points tonight. Edinburgh had no incentive to pay the money for a decent guest booking. So instead, they did it on the cheap and the fans lost out (as usual).

I’m sure if you could find one for the promotion they’d be happy for you to get in touch 

I do have sympathy for the promotion. Six riders at some stage in the season injured or ill plus retirement of Buckley. The change at reserve did us no favours at all and people were led to believe it was for a “few weeks”. Glad we were able to run this year but if we come to tapes next season there has to be some fresh faces brought in.
