I haven't got time to reproduce the full qualifying draw today, but here's the FQR:
FQR: (q1) George Morgan WR 922 v (q10) Albano Olivetti (FRA) WR 1263 FQR: (q2/wc) Burnham Arlidge WR 945 v (q12) Sebastian Lavie (NZL) WR 1295 FQR: (wc) Daniel Cochrane UNR v Antoine Escoffier (FRA) UNR (*1) FQR: (q9) Andrew Fitzpatrick WR 1263 v (q4) Alexis Musialek (FRA) WR 1069 FQR: (q14) Edward Corrie WR 1430 v Oscar Podlewski UNR (*2) FQR: (q7/wc) Jack Carpenter WR 1212 v (q13) Jonathan Brooklyn WR 1430 or Oiliver Hudson UNR FQR: (wc) Ashley Hewitt WR 1738 v Kevin Botti (FRA) UNR (*3)
(*1) Escoffier upset (q3) Chris Priddle 4 & 1 and Cochrane beat (q15) Toby Martin in 3 sets to get to the FQR.
(*2) Podlewski upset Matthew Short in 3 sets in QR2.
(*3) Hewitt thrashed (q8) Miaow Bains 0 & 3 in QR2 and the Frenchman upset (16) James Marsalek 3 & 5 - can Ashley give Botti a spanking and make it to the main draw?
Half of the 'dream team' was here too, but sadly Charlie Goode lost to Horecny in QR1.

Dan didn't look injured when he lost last week, just pretty shattered after so many matches. He must have served at least 10 double faults and was barely running for the last couple of games.
It's quite weird that he is resting this week instead of the last one, especially given that this one is as close as you can get to the concept of a "home tournament". Anyway, I hope it's a change of plan and not an injury problem.

sh**, really wanted george to push on, is he the first LL?, surely this is goldings chance to get his ranking back, isnt illy the guy he choked against serving for the match twice
I thought Greg was only involved in James Ward's career?
And Bhambri-Golding would be an interesting 2nd round, a chance for Olly to measure his development against someone a similar age, although he is a little younger
