Why didn't they seperate them and try to manoeuvre a big final between the 2? Lets face it the rest aren't great so you'd fancy Dudley and Stoke to win through.
Surprising choice but it should be great experience for the lad. I see it hasn't stopped people complaining about Ward not being selected, why was anyone expecting him to be in a round where the home country has more than enough good riders themselves, I don't know.
I was certainly surprised to see North's name included, as i'd heard nothing to suggest he was becoming a Brit previously. As you say, hopefully 1 or 2 more consider it, the opportunities seem a bit better whilst riding as a Brit.
I'd certainly hope Dakota North wasn't considered if he's riding in a British Championship Semi-Final.
Strong side never the less, and should have a good battle with Denmark.
