Chris Ready For Coventry

10/04/14

2012 World Champion Chris Holder will be wearing the skull and crossbones again as he becomes the replacement for injured Darcy Ward.

The Pirates have re-declared with Holder coming in to the side for a minimum of 28 days and ironically will take his place against the club he was riding against when he sustained his horror injuries last July.

Poole boss Matt Ford said "It's a super feeling to be able to welcome Chris back and I know that the Poole fans will be delighted with the news. Chris' inclusion will enable Darcy to take his time with his recovery and not rush back before he is fully ready.

"I think we all saw in the opening Grand Prix in New Zealand that Chris has recovered well and the extra track time with us will certainly help him in his plight to try and win back that world title he won back in 2012.
