Might as well call it an un official Aussie Championship.

 

Only 1 English rider in there,11 Aussies.

 

Surely there has got to be more British riders available?

 

I can only assume that Somerset are looking at Risager for next season,as his performances lately dont warrant an open booking.

I hope not...you can have Ricky Ashworth next season and we'll have Morten :rolleyes:

that has to be one of the strongest fields ever assembled in the UK. Only ty proctor could have strengthened it. Should be a massive turnout, and if its not a huge crowd it will be a shambles.

Not exactly the mouth watering line up as the original but should provide some good racing.
