GLASGOW are just one rider away from finalising their 2013 line-up after completing the signing of James Wright.The former Premier League Riders Champion joins the Tigers on an attractive 6.73 starting average having been a member of Somersets PL runners-up team this year.Manager Sean Courtney said: In James we have a rider who has been top of the pile at Premier League level, and if he can settle in quickly to the form he is capable of, Tigers fans could be enjoying the steal of the season right here at Ashfield. We had actually done a deal with James a couple of weeks ago; however, we wanted to allow him to return from holiday before formalising his contract. We have chatted about the season ahead and I honestly believe that we can help James recover the scoring form we, and he, know he is well capable of."
