British Superbikes: O'Halloran aims to follow up maiden win at Thruxton
The Market Rasen-based rider last year suffered a high-speed crash at the Hampshire circuit, resulting in a broken femur which put him out of action for the rest of the season.
But buoyed by his landmark win, the Australian is looking forward to two good races over the weekend, and is hopeful of a repeat performance on the Honda Racing Superbike this time out.
