THE international four-team event at the seventh Ben Fund Bonanza at Swindon's Abbey Stadium next month will be an England v Australia v Poland v Denmark affair.

The Sunday, March 8 (4pm) meeting, which will be the curtain-raiser to the British season will see an England team including Craig Cook, the winner of the individual event at Leicester last year, Ben Barker and Glasgow’s Richard Lawson.

Cook, who had five wins and a second in the season’s opener last year, said: "I don’t have any bikes ready at the moment and I need to get some practise, because I don’t want to go straight into bumping handlebars without having a few laps, but assuming I get that organised I will be there.”

Poland will include the new Leicester rider Szymon Wozniak, while Rory Schlein will be in the Australian side and Thomas Jorgensen will be representing Denmark.

Under-age youngsters Kyle Bickley, Joe and Dan Thompson, Tom Brennan, Lewis Whitmore, Kean Dicken, Harry McGurk and Leon Flint will also be involved.
