CUMBRIAN racer Craig Cook will race in Great Britain's Monster Energy FIM World Cup clash with Denmark, Sweden and USA on July 15.The Belle Vue and Edinburgh man has been called up for his SWC debut by boss Neil Middleditch who has been impressed by his form so far this season.He joins Swindon and Berwick man Edward Kennett at the King's Lynn event along with established international stars Chris Harris and Tai Woffinden.Said Middleditch: "I've gone for experience with Edward Kennett rather than throwing in two debutants. I know he can do a job for the team in this meeting."It was a hard call and congratulations to Cookie, I'm delighted for the lad and I made the final decision based on statistics and when I've seen him."Riders like Richie Worrall, Ben Barker and Danny King can count themselves very unlucky, but there is an opportunity for me to change things if necessary should we progress to the latter stages in Prague."It's going to be a tough meeting but I have every faith in my boys to do their country proud and I'm sure we will enjoy fabulous support as we always do in this event."
