King's Lynn ace Troy Batchelor says the Stars are desperate to turn their form around – starting when they head to Belle Vue tonight.
The Stars have suffered four successive defeats to all but end their Elite League play-off hopes.But Aussie Batchelor insists they are determined to end their frustrating season on a high as they head into two meetings in two days.
They travel to the National Speedway Stadium to take on the table-topping Aces this evening before hosting play-off chasing Wolverhampton, and world champion Tai Woffinden, tomorrow.
'We've had some pretty good results but a lot of bad ones recently,' said Batchelor.
'We just haven't seemed to be able to get a full team for whatever reason, and it's been tough for us.

'Hopefully we can get the team together over the rest of the season and we can try and end on a high.
'We've got a lot of meetings to go over the next couple of weeks, and we want to win as many of them as possible.'
