Never said he could be, just think it looks a much better side with him instead of Cook personally. 

Don't think you will be disappointed with Ben, and he rides the Kings Lynn track well

Going by last two years he definitely does. Scored 7+1 one visit with Ipswich this season, his previous three visits have all been paid double figure scores and two of those were in his dreadful 2023 season with Sheffield. For a 5.5 middle order rider, that’s a good record. 

Paid 8 and three paid double figure scores in his last four visits, and he’s FIFTH in our averages..

Have to be targeting two league victories there. 

[Gavan]

Average side with 2 second strings riding at 1 and 5 

Might get in the play offs but at the tail end of a meeting with Doyle Emil Bewley Kurtz Holder and Tai they will be found wanting

The standard was nothing like we’re seeing now either. That season was a bit of an anomaly.

Yes 11 races at Lynn Emil got beat once which was by Kvech….. although Kvech was beaten twice by Emil and Rew and King and once by Thompson

Good rider Kvech is no question but I still think the side is average …. Solid but average ….. though with the teams Lynn have had recently this one looks pretty good compared to those …. Big reliance on Iversen and Klindt for me as they will need to cover the weakness of the top 3

He will be amazing at Kings Lynn probably a heat 15 regular at home.

The move away from Poole will certainly do him the world of good 😉

I think you will find that was 2021.

[TheSmiler]

The more I look at it, the more I like this team. 
Sure, they will struggle in Heats 13 & 15 but they will always have strong riders and 2 and 6 and should comfortably win the majority of their home meetings. I am expecting Jan Kvech to push on towards an 8.00 ave this season.

I can see this team finishing in the play offs behind Ipswich, Sheffield and potentially Oxford.

[Daniel Smith]

Lawson should be at No1. The reductions are team building only. The 'Rolling Averages' take precedent.
