Ashton won’t be risked

ENGLAND manager Martin Johnson will take no risks with injury doubt Chris Ashton in today’s World Cup warm-up international against Wales.

Ashton is still feeling the effects of the rolled ankle he suffered in training and will undergo a fitness test in Cardiff this morning.

Johnson remains hopeful Ashton will be available to start at the Millennium Stadium and link up with Ben Foden and Mark Cueto in England’s first-choice back three.
