Race preview
Manxman makes his return to action seeking a fifth victory in a row, but he is 4lb higher than his success at Pontefract in September and that will make life tougher for him. With that in mind, RATHGAR looks the way to go. Jack Channon's representative finished a close-up third on his return at Chelmsford after being gelded and he remains on the same mark. The four-year-old can take full advantage of this drop in grade, while Fox Vision warrants a market check.
