Martin Hagon admits his in-form Eastbourne youngsters might have given the club a selection dilemma.

Eagles plan to send top duo Scott Nicholls and Lee Richardson to the Elite League Pairs at King's Lynn on Saturday.

Nicholls is a slight doubt after taking a blow to the hand in a heat-15 smash during Monday's impressive televised win at Coventry.

If he drops out, it could leave Eagles with a big decision.

Co-promoter Hagon said: "We'll be checking on Scott. To be honest, right now I'm hoping not to get a call from him.

"He is quite tough. He could pick things up afterwards and he said he was okay but we'll see.

"If he can't make it, it will be a toss up who comes in. Everybody has been going really well and it would be a hard decision to make.

"Maybe it would be Cameron Woodward at the moment. It was a big crash for Scott and it looked like it hurt.

"But he's a racer. He was in with a couple of top English riders and I think the Coventry pair had a point to prove."

Woodward, 23, is in great form but Edward Kennett, 21, and Lewis Bridger, 18, would also be in contention to partner Richardson at the ultra-fast Lynn circuit.

Simon Gustafsson also crashed at Coventry and had a lucky escape when last-placed Stanislaw Burza somehow managed to avoid riding straight into him as he fell into the home man's path.

Hagon said: "I dropped Simon off at the airport. He is fine.

"The feedback from Monday has been very positive, no question about that. I've spoken to (co-promoter) Bob Dugard and he is very pleased.

"A lot of people were surprised we won. I thought we could win there but I wasn't sure which way it would go. In the end, it was a good all round performance."

Eagles are on Sky again at Peterborough next Tuesday. The EL Pairs means there is no home fixture this Saturday.
