Ipswich Witches secured all three league points on Thursday in their win over the Belle Vue Aces. Belle Vue, who have recently strengthened their side with World Champion elect Jason Crump proved little match for a side who didn't have a rider score less than 7 points.
Danny scored a well deserved 8 points, winning both of his last 2 heats after falling in his second. The Ipswich Witches ran out 56-37 winners.
Danny remarked "It was a very good performance by the lads and we deserved the league points. The season isn't over yet and we still have time to prove to all that we are better than a bottom of the table side"
