sharp ass bike with some sweet looking Hosier tires

I think he can be a top ten guy for sure. I am looking forward to the coast change.

They had him way under rated last year in his first race back too... He's been riding some regional AX, I believe... not aware of any lingering health issues??

With this being the first round of East Coast, I'd say Blake falls into the category of guys that "if you're ever going to pick him, pick him now while fantasy value is still high"

Without much thought I was going to say 5-8

But after you remember the line up, and how hard it is to compete as a privateer, I think 10-13 purely off experience and fitness, qualify 15-17 first round

There is
Craig
Sexton
Forkner
Marty
Cooper
Oldenburg
Amart
Peters
Covington
Bailey

On the factory efforts. While in his prime blake easily a podium guy - how close he is now I dont know and how good his team support and race day support will be

That list is full of riders that have a really tough time keeping it on 2 wheels and staying injury-free for a series. Might have a real dark horse take the championship.

Me too. Good to see him back. Has mad skills. He said on the podium has been off for a long time from his knee injury. Knocking the rust off. Be interesting to see what he does on the East Coast..

Re-read. I said a dark horse could take the championship, not that Wharton would. Just an observation after seeing the list of crash-happy title favorites.
