The MLSJ Fantasy Team arrives in Palm Springs for Leg 6 of the season.

Across the weekend, fans lead the selection by voting daily to build the six-rider line-up. Each night, once competition concludes, five standout riders will be shortlisted for the poll.

Your choices define the direction of the team.

We’ve shortlisted five standout riders from the Qualifier:

McLain Ward

Back-to-back Qualifier wins with the same partner, First Lady. Another composed performance delivered yet another victory for the veteran combination.

Nina Mallevaey

The current U25 world number one is making her mark on the league with a double clear and a runner-up finish, showing class beyond her years.

Conor Swail

Last season’s reigning champion returned with his young mount Clonterm Obolensky, producing a smooth double clear to take third.

Keri Potter

Making her MLSJ debut with the Rainmakers, Potter impressed immediately by finishing fourth and stepping confidently into 5* MLSJ classes
