Tai Woffinden, Britain's brightest young star, will guest for Belle Vue in their War of the Roses challenge match at Sheffield on Thursday (7 45).
The 19-year-old Wolverhampton captain, a former Sheffield rider who will ride in this year's World championship Grand Prix, has been given permission by his club to ride for the Autogate Aces in place of their injured Danish rider, Charlie Gjedde.
Aces' team manager Chris Morton said: "Sheffield didn't want us to use rider replacement for Charlie. We asked Tai if he wanted to guest for us and Sheffield reluctantly agreed to let him him ride."
Gjedde, who has a badly swollen left knee after crashing in practice at Stoke on Saturday, is having a scan in Denmark on Wednesday. The Aces are hoping he will be fit for the opening Elite League match against Coventry at Kirkmanshulme Lane on March 29.
