Shane ‘Shakey’ Byrne is targeting a hat trick of podium finishes in the British Superbike Championship triple header at Oulton Park this weekend.

Kent’s Byrne currently lies second in the overall standings and six points adrift as he bids for a repeat of his May Bank Holiday victory at the Cheshire circuit to enhance his title credentials.

Byrne said: “This weekend is back to business. I am looking forward to Oulton Park and we have been working hard ready for the weekend, so it will be down to me and lady luck to get the results for the Rapid Solicitors Kawasaki team.”

“From previous experience the second visit of the season is always faster and from the May round I dare say that I expect Tommy (Hill) to be strong, but there are always other guys coming through, but we will be ready!”
