Ipswich Evening Star Witches speedway rider Mark Loram has been overlooked for a place in the 2007 Grand Prix series.

The 2000 world champion has re-found his best form this year and confirmed that he would like to return to the international scene.

But the organisers of the GP have confirmed that former Witch Scott Nicholls and fellow Coventry rider Chris 'Bomber' Harris are the two Brits who have been handed nominated places.

Antonio Lindback (Sweden) and Bjarne Pedersen (Denmark) are the other two seeded riders.

Loram will be riding his last Foxhall Stadium meeting on Thursday when Ipswich stages the 16-Lap Classic.
