IronScorpion 1,405 Posted July 9, 2021 Nicholls, Starke & Gilkes could score well, Heeps & Morley have been here before with Hurry & Mulford unknowns. They could TS if behind & keep it close similar to last week. Track prep could be key. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

He looked so much better calmer and smoother on the bike tonight also huge well done to Tero talk of riders who deserve a prem spot he’s a man that does in my opinion he was really getting the crowd going tonight and he loved stuffing Nichols twice one of the first times I’ve head a rider yelling over the noise of the crowd and the bikes !

mrss 691 Posted July 10, 2021 My first ever visit to Scunthorpe speedway last night. Some good races although score was very one sided. Meeting all done in an hour and quarter. Other clubs could learn a lot from Scunthorpe. Enjoyable night out. 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

To think he replaced Covatti....I do not think he is even NDL standard at his age and all the injuries he`s had? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mrss 691 Posted July 10, 2021 Jake Mulford looks a good prospect. He was on the pace in each of his rides. Much better than Hurry. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

szkocjasid 2,948 Posted July 10, 2021 If Kent keep Mulford for next year he'll be a 1* rising star, if they put him in the team this year he'll be a minimum 2*, better to save him for next year imo! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If I was a Kent supporter, I'd rather see the best seven tracked NOW, rather than wait to 2022 in order that Mulford rising star level remains at 1. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
IronScorpion 1,405 Posted July 10, 2021 As the rules state at the moment, it would not matter if he was a 1* or a 2*, 2* is the minimum. Even if Kent put him in the team & he gets an average, based on experience I would not think he will be greater than 2*. It has not been mentioned anywhere,& I have asked a few times this year, what happens to this years Rising Stars for 2022? If they get an average will they move up or even out of the Rising Star status, as it has already been said for 2022 there will be 2 Rising Stars per team in Premiership & Championship.
