Poole chief Matt Ford has called for Chris Holder to be awarded a place in the Speedway Grand Prix series next year.

Holder has not made it through the GP qualifiers this year, meaning he will need to be nominated straight into the series.

The series promoters admit four riders of their choice and Ford does not see why Australian youngster Holder - who has stepped up to the Elite League in fine style this season - should not be allowed in.

"Anyone who has seen this kid will understand what I'm talking about," said Ford.

"I have absolutely no doubt Chris Holder would light up the world championship."
