In-form Danish racer Michael Palm Toft has been ruled out of the meeting after suffering a knee injury at King’s Lynn last night.

Panthers will operate rider-replacement for Palm Toft at Foxhall, meaning all other members of the side are entitled to take one of his outings.

The Witches have also been forced into a late change as Adam Ellis has withdrawn from his guest booking after a crash at Poole last night.

The home side will now operate rider-replacement at No.1 for Rory Schlein, with Kyle Newman coming in to guest for Danny King at No.2.

IPSWICH: Rory Schlein R/R, Kyle Newman, Cameron Heeps, Mark Riss, Nico Covatti, Coty Garcia, Drew Kemp.

PETERBOROUGH: Scott Nicholls, Simon Lambert, Bradley Wilson-Dean, Michael Palm Toft R/R, Paul Starke, Emil Grondal, Tom Bacon.
