Race preview
Course-and-distance winner RITA'S MAN was second at Musselburgh last time and having already scored at Beverley this term, arrives here in fine form. Keir Hardie is respected in the first-time hood, while Admiral Spice is another trying new headgear in the shape of a visor. However, the main danger may come from Karl Burke's Star Of Zaam, who was a winner last season and has been crying out for a step up in trip.
