NEWPORT''S Craig Watson is relishing the prospect of riding at Sheffield in the Premier League Riders'' Championship on Sunday.

He said: ''I love Sheffield, everything about the place is superb and I would certainly have welcomed more guest bookings if my average had allowed me to do so. ''I always look forward to going there. The track is superb and the club is run on a very professional basis.''

TOMAS Topinka is making his Premier League Riders'' Championship debut at Sheffield on Sunday as King''s Lynn''s representative. He said: ''It''s the first PLRC for me and I''m looking forward to it, I''m sure it''s going to be very hard. ''I''ve done the Elite League Riders'' Championship before at Bradford and with me making my first appearance I''m hoping it''s going to be successful for me.''

ISLE OF WIGHT fans are pinning their hopes on Craig Boyce for PLRC glory - and he insists he has no regrets about moving into the Premier League. He said: ''It''s been good, I''ve enjoyed it this season and they are a great bunch of people at the Isle of Wight. ''It''s been a new experience for me and anyone who says it''s the easy option is talking rubbish in my opinion.''
