Verdict

Cool Roxy, Spring Lover and Herecomestanley look the main protagonists in this trappy handicap chase and the vote is given to Cool Roxy. The selection returns to chasing off what looks a fair mark and with the step up in trip also likely to bring about improvement he looks the one to be on. Spring Lover rates the main danger on his latest third behind the well handicaped Parkinson but he is best when allowed to dominate and as he looks sure to be taken on for the lead he looks opposable. Herecomestanley is another that could go well but he ran as idf the handicaper had caught up eith him when third behind Scarlet Mix last time. Of the remainder Roznic is well in on his best form but is hard to win with and for the winner we return to Cool Roxy.
