Belle Vue team building for the forthcoming 2013 season is starting to take shape for the men from Kirkmanshulme Lane, as the Aces have made 2 signings to leave one available spot open with Magnus ZORRO Zetterstrom tipped to be the final rider.



The Aces have swooped to sign Slovenian Champion & Returnee to the Speedway Grand Prix circuit this year Matej Zagar. The Slovenian is making a return to the British speedway scene as the last time he ridden in the Elite league it was with the Eastbourne Eagles back in 2010 where he had a disappointing season and subsequently left. During that time his form in Poland and other Major Speedway countries has been good leading to him qualifying for the Grand Prix series this season of which he has been out of for a few years, So with his form and thing working well for the 29 year old from Ljubljana, Hopefully the Manchester side will see the benefit of the rider this year.

The Second signing comes in the shape of German international Kevin Wolbert who himself shown first hand last season how much he likes the tight technical Belle Vue track as he scored 39 points in 3 meetings against the Aces scoring heavily in the 3 fixtures at Kirky lane. The German who was told by his parent club Edinburgh Monarchs that he wasn`t in their plans for the 2013 season and the only place available to him in Britain was Belle Vue and said in a recent "I`d love to ride for belle vue , as I love the track and hope I`m hoping the phone rings from the management there".


The 2 signings will join signings Polish rider Artur Mroczka, Czech rider & Captain Ales Dryml, Finnish star Kauko Nieminen and rising British star Craig Cook making up 6 of 7 riders in the squad plus the "Doubling up" riders.
