Chikoko Trail won a selling handicap at Lingfield recently but has been raised 9lb and ROLLER is preferred. The latter was placed behind higher rated horses than these in a tough claimer at Chester and Mark Loughnane’s charge should go close with a similar effort. Oloroso wasn’t beaten far in a handicap at the same meeting at Chester while Bring Us Paradise won a lower grade race at Brighton and is 6lb higher. Wild Dancer should be sharper for a recent comeback but Another Boy hasn’t won since landing this contest in 2017.
