Eastbourne Eagles are planning a busy summer for their fans at Arlington.

Eagles will race at home on four successive weekends in August.

They will also stage racing on all five Saturday nights in May.

The season gets under way a week later than in recent years when Birmingham visit Arlington on March 29.

Eagles will take on Lakeside in the now customary Good Friday double-header.

There is no fixture planned for Saturday, June 14 - the evening England's footballers play Italy in the World Cup.

Home meetings start at 7.30pm unless otherwise stated. All fixtures are subject to possible re-arrangement.
