With Trey returning this weekend, where do you guys see him finishing? He has always been very resilient when returning, but it was interesting in the Honda press release how he talked about "riding within his limits." Is a top 5 a reasonable expectation? I am a huge fan of his and hope he is able to finish out the outdoors healthy and ready for what could be a great SX season in 2016!

If he gets the start then he'll be right up there with the top 4. If not I'd expect him to stay in his comfort zone while the top 4 stretch it out. Id say inside the top 8 both motos finishing just ahead ofhis factory teammate. Noren will finish out correct?

Top 5 would be a reasonable expectation. He's certainly got it in him to podium but I'm sure he'll be more focused on finishing the weekend healthy than on the box.

I hope this guy is still working his T-shirt on Horsepower hill, not that Trey will need him again...

I would not be surprised if he podiums a moto. He was flying today during press. Alessi didn't look too bad either...

if I remember right the time he came back when he got hurt at Washougal he was doing very well before the scrub crash and that was his first race or so back too

I expect a podium as long as he stays off the ground. Trey always comes back like a freight train.

Returning to action on a track where he's broken his femur...twice? I'd take two solid motos, and moving on to the next race.

In this field? Top 5 is definitely reasonable. He can ride within his comfort zone and do well. I don't care how he does for this week, I'm just happy to see him back out there and healthy.

4th behind Dungey, Barcia and Roczen would be like a win. I'll give Turbo props for finishing anywhere inside the top 10 this time out.

3rd overall. Trey always jumps right back in it after injury. That's just how he is. As long as he keeps it on 2 wheels, he'll be in the hunt.

Man I like the guy, but he has had an interesting career. Props to Honda for sticking by him. When do you start losing confidence and worry about the next time you will get hurt ? Dude has brass ones

top 5.

he's a beast but he's been off for a long while and to expect him to just out and podium doesn't seem too likely.

I say the 41 is a baller and has speed that few other have. Although he's had some gnarly injuries, he has always come back just as fast as the day he went down, compared to many others that takes many races or a full season to get it back. I'm not a betting man, but I wouldn't count him out for a podium finish.

He's always beat Barcia, and the way Kroc is floundering I'm thinking it will be a battle between 5 and 41. Stamp it!
