Yawn, and this is my first post ever!!!
No number 1 didn't cost us at Berwick, Plymouth or redcar! But hey, let's not forget fact.
Leigh can't ride at number 1 at premier level, fact. He can't score for the witches at nsel level, fact. Can he ride at 3 or 5 at premier level for the witches, answer unknown, only time will tell. Could always bring Taylor back if he can't, but that blows your genuine number 1 theory out of the water still! in regards to Morten going to reserve, could well be a confidence boost for him, if he has a good meeting and get 6/7 rides, more track time. Look at Joe Jacobs last year, tough start, spell at reserve, come good, bounced back into the main body!
Good night, Tom Cosgrove
