Heading into the home stretch in completing the line-up for the much anticipated Harrisons Scottish Open Championship and it’s time to announce rider number 11!

That rider is one of the most popular riders in the Championship, its Berwick captain Kevin Doolan!

Kevin is now seen as one of the elder statesmen of the second tier having been on these shores since 1999 and while maybe not the number 1 he was in his heyday he is still a classy performer who has fans everywhere he goes.

This will be the Victoria born racer's fifth appearance in the Open and it is a competition he has enjoyed in the past recording double digit scores in his last 3 attempts in 2007, 2009 and 2012 and with the always vociferous Bandits support behind him few would be surprised if he repeated that feat.

Kevin’s rider sponsorship package is currently available. This includes recognition as a rider sponsor, admission for two to the Open, two match magazines, a DVD of the Championship and the specially-made racejacket that will be worn by Kevin on the night, autographed by the man himself - all for just £120. Follow the link below to book this package now!

So 11 down, 5 to go. Look back at 10am tomorrow when we will announce the 12th rider who will be going after the famous Jack Young Memorial trophy

Tickets are on sale now with sponsorship packages also available details of all can be found here for what is sure to be a hotly contested night of racing to raise the curtain on our 21st season at Armadale.
