I ride the odd race there, not sure if I'll get the time this season though (or have the legs for it). Illy races there a lot, and got a second place last year.
It's a tough little circuit and you have to be quite an adept bikehandler, but you should definitely give it a go. I've found that even if you get dropped you normally end up in a small group behind the main race where you can get used to racing the circuit and over a few weeks you should build the fitness and know how to stay with the main group.
