The optics just don't look when he scored well, and qualified to the next stage of the World Championship, riding in an event between two Aces fixtures that he's missing through injury. Expand Can see both sides but you wonder whether he'd be missing meetings for Rybnik. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
