PIRATES new boy Josh Grajczonek will line up at Wolverhampton tonight after being included in the club's latest re-declared line-up.
The Australian was confirmed in the new Pirates one-to-seven on Saturday after Poole's stand-in signing Kozza Smith made way following his 11 paid 12-point cameo at Coventry.
Grajczonek, 23, has impressed as a guest for Pirates this year by racking up paid 20 from 11 rides.
Discussing the recruitment of the Somerset doubling-up star, Pirates chief Matt Ford told the club's official website: “I am sure some will question this move after Kozza rode so well for us at Coventry.
“But the change was lodged with the British Speedway Promoters' Association prior to Friday's meeting as it needed to become effective for tonight.”
Grajczonek has a 4.16 average, so Rohan Tungate will drop down to reserve with recent recruit Micky Dyer.
Pirates, who have booked in-form Birmingham ace Martin Smolinski as a guest for injured captain Chris Holder, will utilise rider replacement for Tomas H Jonasson at Monmore Green this evening (7.30pm).
Wolves, meanwhile, welcome back Grand Prix star Tai Woffinden. Chris Harris will deputise for the hosts' number one Freddie Lindgren, while Ty Proctor is sidelined.
Wolves: (from) Harris (guest), Rider Replacement for Proctor, Wells, Skornicki, Woffinden, L Lindgren, Thorssell.
Pirates: (from) Ward, Rider Replacement for Jonasson, Smolinski (guest), Grajczonek, Janowski, Tungate, Dyer.
