Race preview
ROACH POWER has to carry a 5lb penalty here after winning at Ffos Las and is due to go up the same amount when his new handicap mark comes into force, but that still seems fairly generous. Scoring by close to three lengths over this trip, he was sent to the front bright and early and came home an easy winner. Connie's Rose loves it here, winning six times, with four of those off lower marks, and she may hold off Savannah Smiles from the same stable in the fight for second place.
