After his guest performance for Leicester at the NSS I’d say Luke Killen is the obvious choice as the Rising Star to replace Bailey who has decided to take a break from the sport.  

Jake Mulford? Original rising star last year till got injured

Totally forgot about Jake Mulford, has the experience of NSS.  Suppose the bigger problem is who is going to be number 6

Killen looked good but surely they'd go with Mulford before Sheffield give him a run out for one of their reserves.

Voulas and Mulford for Tate and Connor?

Hi everyone,
Just an update;
Yesterday at Workington I was signed off medically due to mental exhaustion. After extensive consideration over the last couple of weeks, I have reached the regretful decision to sit the rest of the season out from speedway, as I am not in the right headspace to A. perform at my peak, or B. safely attack tracks. This has been an extremely difficult decision to make, but one I believe pertinent to my overall wellbeing, as I know I cannot continue in this way.
This is something that has been building for a while, it has affected my mental focus no end, and reached a stage where I can’t keep trying to push through it.
I can only apologise to my respective teams, fans and sponsors, and wish them all the best as the season continues.

We’re in a right mess at reserve now. 
 

we must sign a good no6 now we’ve lost Bailey. 
get well soon Connor. Health comes first. 
 

PHB wants a spot and I’d take him 

 

then there is Bellego who won’t be touched at reserve round NSS

 

Vuolas is another who deserves a go. 
 

castagna, etheridge and barker are other options. 
 

for the RS. It will be between 4 riders surely

Bangs was openly telling people during the week Belle Vue wanted him and he wanted Belle Vue. So was a current promoter. There seems to be an ongoing argument though over his starting average which is holding things up.

What about someone like toft at 6 ? Plenty of experience and seems to like it round the nss. Granted it’s a bit of a gamble but if they PHB contract can’t get sorted he might be an option

1) how about Kemp as a guest against Oxford, I'm sure he'll have a point to prove?

2) how about Kemp as a replacement for Zischke?

I don't know why Paco Castagna hasn't been signed if he fits.

Sounds like Vuolas has done well enough tonight to earn himself a permanent team spot. 

But can also understand the logic behind just using guests.

Yes he was superb, even in the race he came last against Magic and Tungate, he was on the pace and caused them both some problems.

I'd use him at NSS, but use someone else at away tracks.

Question. Is the RS reserves' ride in heat 8 protected?  Could Vuolas have replaced Mulford?

Great night's racing. Thankfully the track has returned to it's former state following a few less than spectacular meetings at the beginning of the season. Very well done to Andy and the track staff. Simply the best!
