JORDAN FRAMPTON has been named as a confirmed starter in Swindon's 2010 campaign. The British youngster slots into the Robins' reserve berth in a 'doubling up' capacity alongside Australian Cory Gathercole.


Frampton will combine his Elite league commitments with a full time berth with Rye House in British speedway's second tier.

The twenty-four year old made his British speedway debut in 2004 when representing Swindon's junior side, the Sprockets and since then Frampton has made solid progress.

In recent seasons the Dorset born racer has established himself as a consistent perfomer in Premier league circles and impressed when 'doubling up' with Elite league Coventry in 2009.

Swindon co-owner Gary Patchett said:

"Jordan is a talented young rider who performed solidly during his Elite league appearances for Coventry in 2009. Having previously ridden for Swindon, he knows the Blunsdon circuit well and we're confident he'll contribute good scores when called upon"
