The M&B Cheslyn Hay Classic runs for the first time tomorrow with a stellar field of players assembling for the £550 first prize. Callum Wraight starts as favourite but has a tough opener against Ant Bracken from Willenhall Nordley, while Ant’s team mate Scott Simpson has Callum’s team mate Rich Goddard first game. The other Nordley player in the draw, captain Dan Bodley, is just below them and has Glynn Storer of Windmill. Darren Plenderleith of the Greville against Jon Palmer is a quality game near the bottom of the draw, with the winner playing John Dewey of Stretton Anglesey or Darrell Handley. Jon’s brother Tom is at the top of the draw versus Adam Patrick, with the winner playing Greville’s Carl Fielding or Jordan Baddeley of Atherstone Cons. Carl’s Greville team mate Steve Wallace plays Danny Statham from Windmill, with another team mate Ross Dunkley against North Midlands stalwart Peter Varney. New Stretton Anglesey signing Rikki Higgs has a tough opener against Paul Lamb, while his team mate Conor Chamberlain has Leigh Burdett. Atherstone Cons’ Ben Percival plays Leighton Roberts first round, while The George pair Phil Clinton and Nathan Dawes play Nick Tideswell and Michael Warrington respectively. The other two games see Lee Brown take on Karl Shanks and Dan Davies versus Stuart Perry.
