The previously announced names are Derek Sneddon, Kevin Wolbert, Mark Lemon, Aaron Summers, Oliver Allen, Theo Pijper and Richard Lawson which leaves six names still to be announced.

Craig Cook was a finalist in last year’s event and on his day can beat anyone at Armadale. Kevin Doolan was runner-up in 2007 and has been prominent but unlucky on other occasions, while Rene Bach makes his Open debut.

The Rene Bach of 2010 would start one of the favourites but he had a very unlucky year in 2011, injured early on in the season and only riding a few meetings at the end of the term. This will be an early chance for him to make his mark in 2012.

It is hoped to confirm the remaining six riders within the next week. There are still rider sponsorships (£100) and heat sponsorships (£300) available.
