HANS Andersen is looking to cash in on his reserve position when he heads to Belle Vue with Peterborough on Monday (7.30).
Andersen is the latest big name to be in the lower reaches of the strong all-round Panthers side, following in the footsteps of Chris Harris and Ulrich Ostergaard.
Monday’s trip to the National Speedway Stadium is their second of the season having held the strongly fancied Aces to a draw on Bank Holiday Monday in May.
Now Andersen wants plenty of points on a personal level – but he insists that’s always been the case.
“I just want to win every race whether I’m at No.1 or No.7,” he said.
“It just shows how strong the Peterborough team is throughout this year.
“Ulrich has gone from No.7 to No.1, Bomber went from No.5 to No.7, I’ve gone from No.2 to No.7 - it just shows how level we are."
The rider replacement facility is in place for Ostergaard who is back in Denmark recovering from wrist and back injuries. It means his four programmed rides can be spread around the remainder of the team.
The Aces include 2019 Panthers favourite Charles Wright and sensational youngster Dan Bewley has gone to their number one spot after a run of fine form. He scored a full maximum last Monday on his home track.
BELLE VUE: Dan Bewley, Richie Worrall, Steve Worrall, Charles Wright, Brady Kurtz, Tom Brennan, Ricky Wells.
PETERBOROUGH: Ulrich Ostergaard R/R, Bjarne Pedersen, Michael Palm Toft, Scott Nicholls, Chris Harris, Jordan Palin, Hans Andersen.
