Verdict

SOLLY'S GOLD looked good on his debut and might prove the answer to this well-contested listed bumper. This stiffer test should suit Roximan who is taken to turn around Wincanton form with Bailly's Comet and provide the main threat. Molly's Lad and Nicky Henderson French recruit Mariole are others to consider.

14	Very promising first effort when ½-length third of 12 to reopposing Anthony Honeyball pair Bailly's Comet and Champ Kabai at Wincanton 6 weeks ago. This race looks sure to place more emphasis on stamina and that will suit this son of Kapgarde. 2nd Pick 14 Roximan (Fr) Jockey: Harry Cobden Trainer: Paul Nicholls J: Harry Cobden T: Paul Nicholls	92	-	-	-	10%
