U21 FINAL SEEDS ANNOUNCED

DEFENDING British Under-21 Champion Sam Hagon is one of eight riders to receive a seeded place in this year’s Final.

Hagon pulled off a memorable triumph at Glasgow last June, having previously won the Qualifier meeting at Plymouth to even secure a place in the Ashfield showpiece.

This year his Final place is confirmed as one of the eight seeds based on Championship averages, with the other spots going to Dan Thompson, Joe Thompson, Ashton Boughen, Nathan Ablitt, Luke Harrison, Jake Mulford and Vinnie Foord.

The date and venue for the Final is to be confirmed, but the Qualifier will once again take place at Plymouth on Tuesday April 29 (7pm).

Places in that meeting will be offered to the 16 riders who have a 2024 NDL average of above 3.00, and confirmation of the line-up will follow next month. The top eight from the Coliseum will qualify for the Final.
