him to miss both races. If anyone is seeking redemption this year, it’s Fillmore.Taylor Knapp (No. 44 KTM/HMC Racing KTM RC8R), Cory West (No. 13 Team RSRacecraft EBR 1190RS), and Dustin Dominguez (No. 68 Team RSRacecraft EBR 1190RS) are riders to keep an eye on as well for the aforementioned reasons.Roger Hayden (No. 54 National Guard Jordan Suzuki GSX-R1000) took a pair of top fives year at Barber Motorsports Park, but a repeat of his pair of fifths is unlikely to satisfy the Kentuckian this weekend, as he’s looking to boost his performance and prove that he’s a legitimate title threat.Hayden has something of a love-hate relationship with the track. He earned his first-ever AMA Pro win at BMP in breath-taking fashion with a 0.030-second last-corner acing of older brother Tommy in the Supersport race in 2004. He also won there in Motorcycle-Superstore.com SuperSport in 2006 only to break his tibia and fibula in the subsequent National Guard SuperBike contest. In 2008 Hayden was hit by another rider during Superbike qualifying at BMP, a vicious incident in which he broke his back and pelvis and lost his left pinky. In 2011, Hayden first flashed his ability to run up front in the premier-class, tracking down the leaders before crashing out of the race.Hayden is currently sixth in the points, one spot behind new teammate Danny Eslick (No. 23 Jordan Suzuki GSX-R1000). Eslick has been steady if not overly flashy in his opening four races with the Michael Jordan Motorsports outfit as he’s acclimated with the team and his racebike. Perhaps the Oklahoman’s trademark spectacular style and front-running form will return in a full force this weekend at a track he won at in the GoPro Daytona SportBike class two years ago.Chris Clark (No. 6 Yoshimura Suzuki Factory Racing Suzuki GSX-R1000) is in need of a bounce back weekend after a down weekend at Road America. Meanwhile, Chris Ulrich (No. 18 M4 Broaster Chicken Racing Honda CBR1000RR) should be well poised for a strong outing after making significant gains aboard his developing CBR1000RR two weeks ago, and David Anthony (No. 25 Motosport.com Motul Fly Racing Suzuki GSX-R1000) can always be counted on to fight inside the top ten.This weekend’s GEICO Motorcycle AMA Pro Road Racing action will be broadcast on CBS Sports Network as part of the CBS Sports Spectacular.This weekend’s coverage includes LIVE broadcasts of both AMA Pro National Guard SuperBike races, and will begin Saturday, June 22 at 2:30 p.m. ET/11:30 a.m. PT with the weekend Preview Show.Live coverage of AMA Pro National Guard SuperBike Race 1 will air on Saturday, June 22 at 4 p.m. ET/1 p.m. PT with Race 2 slotted in for Sunday, June 23 at 4 p.m. ET/1 p.m. PT.
