Pavlic will ride in the home meeting against Belle Vue

Swindon Robins have welcomed Jurica Pavlic back into the fold following his completion of a 28-day ban for failing to appear for a home meeting in June.

Pavlic missed the win over Coventry and his Blunsdon future looked in doubt.

But he has since spoken to skipper Leigh Adams and co-promoter Gary Patchett is confident about the future.

"If he has gremlins he's managed to get rid of those and he's focused on what we want to achieve in the rest of the season," Patchett told BBC Wiltshire.

"The fact we let the dust settle on the little spat we had was a good call."

Pavlic, 20, who was riding for Leszno in Poland and Swedish side Vetlanda as well as in the Under-21 World Championship and Speedway Grand Prix qualifiers, is set to return in the home meeting against Belle Vue on Thursday, 23 July.

Patchett added: "His calendar is what it is now. He's got no liquidity in his schedule any more. He knows where he's going, where he's got to be and when he's got to be there.

"He appeared genuine and committed to what we are doing."
