Not sure, how many points have you got left, & does he qualify for a reduction s he rode in the National League ?

I have just had a scan through the archives & BWD has a Championship average from 2018 BUT rode in the Premiership in 2019 so that will be his most recent average to be used, which was 5.47. This, converted by 1.5 for Championship racing gives 8.21. we only have 7.73 in total to play with.

With him being a New Zealander, I am not sure if he is entitled to a reduction even though he rode in the NDL.

Having spoken to the main man the rider in question will fit into the team as per the rules on the day he is announced. Just hope they don't announce him before they announce the new rules. :rofl:

Does BWD get a reduction for being out injured since 13 june 2019.

When did anybody qualify for a reduction on the basis of missing less than half a season through injury....

I don't know what qualifies a rider for a reduction, he was injured last year because he pulled out before Covid kicked off.

Even with a reduction his average would still be 8.00. I expect there will be a new 10% reduction rule added for New Zealander’s to encourage more of them to ride in Britain for this season to make him fit though, don’t panic.
