Does Jack Smith fit at 7?

Doesnt sound like hes going to be involved at glasgow and if starke ends up at poole then possibly a shout.

Did well enough to get out of the reserve berth at glasgow

Probably but it was only a couple of weeks ago he was saying he doesn't have a team yet.

Yup. Probably unlikely to get out of the reserve spot as well unless etheridge or bowes dont do well and foord doesnt keep progressing which would make him one of the stronger reserves on paper

He does and would imagine he would be a very long way down the list given the amount of options available with 4.3 points to play with.

He doesn’t seem to be the most likely going off rumours, but you could find plenty worse

He has the ambition to succeed, has proven that there’s potential on his average. And if you could secure him in the NT too then there’s real potential to have someone who could dominate heat 2

Been trying to get a team place for 10 years, but very rarely signed for a 2nd season   so probably not good enough imo

To be fairto Jack in 2023 he was quick round workington 

And does put in odd good performance 

But  don't think hes going g to improve much at this stage of his career 

But Mason campton was similar once he got a couple of steady years in he played a big part in workingtons treble winning season

I'll disagree on that one, lots of 2 point riders get a second season & Jack is better than all of them.

Maybe if he did worse last year could fit into some teams, explain that to non-speedway fans

Been around 10 years, his problem is he can only ride a couple of tracks with any consistency.Just shows how averages are killing the sport in their current form.

He rarely has a full season to try & "kick on" this year was probably one where he rode most of the season, very good at reserve, averaging above 5, but poor in the top 5, so his average dropped pretty much back to where it started.

I'd pick him if I had 3.7 available, but not over 4 like Workington have left.
