Belle Vue Aces
Published Date:
13 March 2008
Track: Kirkmashulme Lane
Race-night: Monday
Track length: 285m
Track record: 57.8secs - Jason Crump, August 2006.
Team manager: Chris Morton
Team: Jason Crump 10.31, Joe Screen 7.13, Charlie Gjedde 6.45, Billy Forsberg 4.00, Lukasz Jankowski 4.00, Steve Boxall 3.73, Michal Rajkowski 3.10. Total: 38.72. Number eight: Robert Ksiezak.
One to watch: Boxall - a young Brit prepared to swap the security of the Premier League for a shot at the big-time.
Assessment: The return of superstar Crump might have been a source of winter mirth in murky Manchester, but it won't paper over the considerable cracks in the rest of the Aces armoury.
Screen is well past his best, Gjedde is erratic and Forsberg is prone to accidents. Boxall is a decent young British rider, but the two Poles won't be anywhere near as handy at speedway as their surnames would be in Scrabble.
Plummer's prediction: 9th
