But lets send Charles to a track he has never ridden and see how he gets on. Lambert should of been sent to Germany tonight due to his previous upbringing on German tracks and sent Charles to Glasgow and we could of had 4 riders in the challenge rather than the 3 which I suspect we will. But I hope Charles proves me wrong and qualifies tonight. No doubt our two biggest draws were allocated to Glasgow to boost the crowd. Can’t see that the gate would have been as big with two of Harris, Bewley and Wright. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Valid point - certainly Harris would not have been a great draw for Glasgow fans Id expect there was a pecking order with the riders choosing and its likely Wight had Hobsons..... 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Alun Rossiter as GB Manager picked who rode where. At least that is what he said on Twitter a couple of weeks ago. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Col 850 Posted June 10, 2019 We may have had what could just about be classified as a shower in Wolverhampton shortly before 18:00 but it didn't last long & nowhere near enough rain fell for the meeting to have been called off. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
