BRUMMIES BRING IN COOK

BIRMINGHAM have added Australian racer Zach Cook to their line-up as they step up to the Sports Insure Premiership.

Cook becomes the third rider to join the Brummies from Wolverhampton, with Steve Worrall and Leon Flint having both raced for the former Monmore club this year, and Tom Brennan is also making the move to Perry Barr.

Birmingham CEO Nigel Tolley said: “Zach’s signing is one that excites me because of the potential improvement I think we could see from him.

“Many were unsure how he would get on in his first season in the Premiership, but it took him hardly any time whatsoever to adjust and within weeks he looked comfortable at that level.

“I saw him come up with many big performances for Wolverhampton and I’m sure that will be the case for him in Brummies colours also.

“He was a solid choice of guest on more than one occasion for us this season and he’s another signing who will go down well with our supporters I’m sure.”
