i think Wardy is finished for the year now. he is still recovering from glandular fever. it will hit his ranking hard but its better to make sure you a fully recovered from these things.

Yes Florain, still a WR 67 guy at Jersey challenger is not something you'd expect. what's extra odd is Florian plays for the German club side that operate out of Aachen yet opted not to play there

hopefully Evo gets in as that will open up another WC space. Id give WCs to Baker (unless he wants to go to Champaign), Willis, Bloomers and Smethurst.
Cox and Eaton are too out of form to deserve WCs, Slabinsky is too short of match practice, Golding/Marselek/Hewitt/Morgan would be better off in qualies. David Rice is close but no cigar
I would think Willis and Smethurst are shoe-ins for wild cards for Jersey.
I don't really want Fleming to get one because he has had one for each of the three previous challengers this year and lost in the first round of them all, and he seems to be concentrating much more on doubles.
Phillips would be an interesting choice, but I don't know how much he is in contact with the LTA bosses.
Other than that, Cox, Rice and Milton would be the favourites, or maybe Pauffley.
according to MTF De Bakker is out of Jersey, so good news for Boggo in relation to obtaining a seeding and also for Evo who is only 1 spot out now, hopefully he wont need to use a WC that can go to another brit.
