Bonny Good

Recommended Posts

Does anyone else remember Arthur (Bonny) Good who rode second halves at Swindon in 1949 including the very first meeting and also rode for Swindon in a few challenge matches before they took over Hull's fixtures. He also won the Best Pairs meeting on 1st August 1949 with Reg Lambourne.  He was principally a grass track rider.  Some of his stuff is coming up for auction on 26 th June at Aldriges Auctions in Devizes (lot 385)

Didn't Bonny Good emigrate to Canada in the early 1950s where he competed for a couple of seasons at tracks in the Toronto area?

Bonny Good, never heard of him, may have emigrated to Canada but he most definitely did not compete at Speedway in the early '50's as there wasn't any Speedway or tracks in the Toronto area. Speedway didn't come back until 1959 in Dundas, again far from Toronto area.

There have never been tracks in the Toronto area since the old Ulster stadium of the 1930's......Ulster Stadium closed in 1943 for development.

If he did "emigrate", he never did it permanently, as he died in Devizes.
