COTTON SOCKS (2) placed second on first career appearance in a jumpers flat race at Huntingdon a fortnight ago. Wears a first-time hood and will derive plenty of experience from that initial outing. SOLLY'S GOLD (6) is the pick of the career debutants. Bred by Soldier Of Fortune out of Miss McGoldrick and is a half-brother to G2 Berkshire Novice’s Chase third Tightenoutbelts. Worth considering. MAC'S MAX (3) also finished runner-up on debut in a jumpers flat races at Newcastle previously. Can go one better. STRIKING MIDNIGHT (7) is not discounted after placing third behind the third pick. May reverse the placings.
