Thunder Valley Week: Entry lists, rider availability contradictions and factory moves that matter

Promotocross’s pre-entry for the Thunder Valley National (June 13) lists a broad 450 field including Cooper Webb, Jett Lawrence, Jorge Prado and Eli Tomac. (See the official pre-entry/result page.) KTM, however, announced early in June that Eli Tomac will sit out upcoming Pro Motocross rounds to recover from injuries sustained at Fox Raceway; Rockstar Energy Husqvarna confirmed Malcolm Stewart will miss multiple rounds with a knee issue. The immediate editorial implication is straightforward: the pre-entry sheet cannot be treated as final while team medical updates are still active — expect last-minute changes to heat draws and gate picks and follow the Pro Motocross start lists on race morning for authoritative confirmation.
