Could be an interesting option.

Just turned 16 in Nov and had a decent first season in the sport riding for Leicester 2 last season. 

Had a 5.60 GSA but 6.80 incl bonus points. Had some decent scores if you look through the Speedway Stats website under the riders section. Rode 10 league matches in that first season and could be another youngster who could have a decent future.

Would be a decent option and with no pressure on him. Considering what he achieved as a first season 15 year old, I would be happy to see him sign until July. Also good experience for him as he is already signed for Leicester 2 & 3 teams.

Getting ahead of myself here but if he did do reasonably well,  and shows expected improvement for Leicester could be an ideal 2 pointer for 2026. Just a thought if Cairns ends up with 4 or more at season end. A decent carrot to dangle in front of him as a potential incentive.

Also on Sonny Springer didn't realise how impressive this youngster looked until I just saw 2 impressive videos of him on Youtube just now.

The one which was Leicester V Middlesbrough was very impressive where he beat team mate Joe Thompson but also beat the likes of trigger & Perry. Also in an U21 individual here he beat Max James. Both meetings last season. Can gate and has an exciting style.

This guy could be going places based on what I've seen. Remember he rode these meetings as a 15 year old.

Just type in Sonny Springer into youtube search.

Never seen anyone so excited about a rider being used as a stop gap before.

Just cultivating opinion/input into Poole 2025 Forum.

Better than seeing all the useless waffle aimed at Poole joining/not joining the Prem KO Cup for 2025.

Feel free to watch the videos to see if you agree that whether he is the choice or not he shows early signs of being a decent rider considering he was only 16 in Nov and was 15 in the 2 meetings I viewed.

I would hope my almost 55 years of watching the sport live - via TV and online has given me a small insight into riders who display potential at an early age 🙂

But, but, I thought everything was to do with Poole, the British speedway world revolves around them, and other teams exist only to ride against Poole. 🤪😉

I think that comes from Poole winning most seasons.
