Race preview
KOTMASK could be the one given he showed a lot more here last time when a one-length second. He sports a first-time tongue-tie and gets the nod ahead of Escapeandevade in a tricky handicap for punters to solve. The latter pulled up when sent off favourite at Sandown, but has less on his plate and was in good form previously. Palacio should also go well with a clear round.
