Race preview
Dinny Lacey has been running with great credit in the pointing sphere recently and he merits the utmost respect, but the vote goes to FIRAK. Dan Skelton's charge landed a couple of similar events at Warwick and Hexham last year, and he could resume his progress having been far from disgraced in a Leicester handicap most recently. Lieutenant Rocco should not be underestimated either.
