Race preview
Roger Fell's INNER CIRCLE was beaten less than two lengths over this distance at Redcar last time but has been given the chance to better that effort here by competing off the same mark. Similar sentiments apply to Grant Tuer's Etikaal who was a handy third at Musselburgh last time, while C&D winner Alexandrakollontai is lurking on a dangerous mark at the foot of the handicap and is interesting now back down in trip having knocked on the door at Hamilton last time.
