Don't know why they're signing him on 6.40 when they could have Vissing on 6.24 - cost cutting? Leon doesn't like the track, couldn't even win a race in the under 21 final at Ashfield this year. Any ambitious rider will look to conquer tracks they have previously struggled on. For me, on similar averages I’d take Flint over Vissing any day. There’s a lot more potential upside to Flint if it goes well. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Agree, also riders with anything about them (which Flint clearly has) will generally learn a track they aren't keen on if they are racing on it every week. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You might be right for the long term but for 2024 I'd take Claus or Leon, based all the times I've seen them ride. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Just thought Had decent season at Scunthorpe 2022 Because he finished the season well (10 match rolling ave), he ended up with a 7.5+ average. So I couldn't see him matching that. I'd only go for him if there's no other options. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
