If you are going for 52 - 54. I'd pick the 52 and use a longer stem, as opposed to a 54 and a shorter one.
A lot of track frames have a very steep seat tube angle, which would lead to you placing your saddle further back than usual. This will add to your reach. I'm not sure the BJ has such a steep seat tube, as it is a grass track frame. But my saddle is just under 1cm further back than usual. So the 52 might fit more like a 53 anyway.
Worth considering.
