BELLE VUE boss Mark Lemon believes his title-defending side can be a “huge threat” once again in 2025.
The ATPI Aces won their second ROWE Motor Oil Premiership crown in three seasons back in October.
Inspirational chief Lemon revealed the team that will attempt to retain the silverware at the National Speedway Stadium last night - and he’s confident of more glory.
Skipper Brady Kurtz, Dan Bewley, Jaimon Lidsey and Norick Blodorn have all sealed returns to the Manchester club in 2025 along with Rising Star Jake Mulford.
The Aces have also moved to sign Zach Cook – with his brother Ben having joined King’s Lynn – whilst Australian youngster Tate Zischke is back after his initial stint was cut short by serious injury on his debut this summer. Antti Vuolas is the other member of the victorious side to miss out.
Lemon said: “Having to break up a title-winning team is always very difficult but obviously that’s a situation forced upon us by rules.
“But I have great faith in Zach. He has shown fantastic progress over the last season and he will fit into the side perfectly.
“There’s a great deal of power at the top end and potential right down the order.
“We are led by two Grand Prix riders and both Brady and Dan were outstanding as we won the title last season.
“There’s room for improvement from Jaimon, Norick, Tate and Jake. If they can fulfil their potential, we will be a huge threat home and away.”
