We are very pleased to announce that Jozsef Tabaka has agreed to ride in the Harrisons Scottish Open Championship on Friday

Crowd favourite Jozsef Tabaka has agreed to fly in from his Debrecen home to take his place in the historic Championship on Friday. Said Jozsef, "When I was offered a place I could not say no. I have been missing my Edinburgh friends and it will be good to see everyone again. I have not had many races this year but I will do my best."

Said Scotwaste Monarchs Chairman, Alex Harkess, "We wanted to add something a bit special to the field on Friday and, to be honest, we could not think of anything more special than bringing Jozsef back. He is just such a favourite with everyone."

Jozsef will take up position 10 in the field and all sponsorships associated with that number, rider, tyre and fuel and oil are all available.

In other changes to the field Jason Garrity will now line up at number 1 and Stuart Robson will take the place of Rene Bach. Rene has been forced to return to Denmark for personal reasons following the surprise call off of the match at Workington on Sunday afternoon.

We expect to be able to confirm the final entrant at position 5 later on today.
