Berwick were at full strength but King’s Lynn were without the injured Daniel Nermark and used R/R at number 1 instead..

When you can only manage two race winners all match there isn’t much hope of victory and that was the case at Berwick tonight where King’s Lynn won with ease. A collection of 2-4s and a couple of drawn heats saw the Stars ease into a 10 point lead after 7 races. Berwick then took a 5-3 advantage with the use of a TR for Craig Branney in heat 8 to pull two points back but normal service was resumed until another 5-3 went Berwick’s way in heat 12 this time with Michal Makovsky taking a TS ride from 15 metres back taking the score to 33-43.

There was a mild flutter in the visitors’ ranks when Stanislaw Burza won heat 13 on a TR with Bergstrom third for a 7-2 but two shared races saw the Stars home in style. Tomas Topinka and Kevin Doolan did most of the damage with nine race wins between them aided by Troy Batchelor and Chris Mills who also won a couple of races each.
