Danny Shines at Rainy Shielfield
Posted 08/07/06

It was another excellent pay day for Danny Bird as he rode his way to a flawless 18 point maximum at Shielfield this evening whilst guesting for tomorrows opponents Rye House.

The conditions at Berwick were far from ideal with rain almost continual throughout the meeting but Danny once again showed the professional approach and got on with it, recording 5 wins, including one from a tactical ride.

It did not stop Rye House going down to a 54-42 defeat however as they seemed to be affected more by the continual rain than their Berwick counterparts.

It wasn't as good a night for James Cockle however but he managed to record three third places from his five rides. However he was beaten three times by last years reserve partner Adam Roynon.

Rye House will not have the luxury of Danny as a guest when they arrive at Ashfield tomorrow, electing to go for George Stancl instead. George's form has been erratic of late but he will be keen to make up for his poor showing at the end of last month when he only managed to score 5 points from four rides.

At present, the identity of the reserve guest for Rye House is not known.
