Verdict

Alexandrakollontai is penalised for winning over a mile at Redcar while Echo Of Lightning has been raised 5lb after scoring over track and trip last time. The Stalking Moon failed to cope carrying 6lb extra at Thirsk having won at Catterick earlier while Curzon Line was runner-up at Carlisle recently having slipped down the weights. But ROARING FORTIES (NAP) missed the whole of last year and was not beaten far when only fifth at Beverley last time. He’s won off a 5lb higher mark in the past and looks set to run a big race today.
