Workington’s Kyle Bickley scored a paid maximum as Berwick kept up their strong start to the NDL campaign with a 55-35 win over Belle Vue.
Bickley, a former reserve with the Workington Comets, collected 14+1 while Greg Blair also earned a paid maximum on 13+2.
Nathan Ablitt scored 10+1 for the Colts in a meeting high on entertainment.
Berwick boss Gary Flint said “We did everything right and got the win we deserved, but also we go into these NDL matches wanting to progress from one to seven, and we did that comfortably.
“We also go out to have some fun, and I don’t think any fans would disagree that that tonight was top-level fun! Such a great meeting tonight.”
Ablitt said: “We had a bit of bad luck before we even started, with JPB (Jack Parkinson-Blackburn) withdrawing and Sam (McGurk) blew an engine on parade but even so we were still in the mix.
“I think with a little more track knowledge, things could have been closer, but we can’t take away from the Bullets. They were strong at home and deserved winners.”
Meanwhile a former Comets hero is now the Glasgow skipper and Ulrich Ostergaard is urging his side to keep errors to a minimum when they visit Newcastle today.
The Tigers can end the week-end top of the Championship with a win, but slipped up at Brough Park last season when they went down 48-42.
Ostergaard said: “We all need to fire, avoid all those last places, and score in every heat.
“I’m sure we can do that, we can go there and win. On paper we have a stronger team but they have some good home advantage.
“We need to look to get some away points if we want to get to the play-offs.”
Newcastle bring in another ex-Workington rider Kyle Howarth at No 1 to guest for the injured Bradley Wilson-Dean, whilst Jason Edwards comes in for George Congreve who is out with concussion.
