EAGLES KEEN TO GET STARTED

KENT Eagles owner Michael Gray says he’s delighted with the septet assembled for their entry into the National Development Trophy.

The Eagles will be racing at Iwade and have a strong spearhead of Ben Morley, Nathan Ablitt and Vinnie Foord along with several other riders with strong local connections.

Gray said: “We set out to put a local team together with a Kent and an Eagle connection, which I feel that the management team has done.

“The team looks like an exciting blend of youngsters right through to a rich vein of experience, with all the riders looking to improve towards other opportunities within the sport.

“We are looking forward to 2025 and it is already shaping up to be a great season, something we can build upon and learn from. We also hope that it will prove to be a campaign that when done we can look back and be proud of.”
