Verdict

Roxyfet ended a two-year losing streak here last month and is only 2lb higher. Blooriedotcom was well head of Got Trumped when third behind Fulgurix here 10 days ago but the winner was beaten earlier by MYBURG at Sedgefield, along with subsequent winner Cool Country, and Sue Smith’s novice has plenty of scope for further improvement. Follow Your Fire is on a decent mark at present so can’t be ignored.
