GB - Chepstow - Race 2

A 6 lb rise for BEN SOLO's recent all-the-way C&D success doesn't look prohibitive, particularly when factoring in the likelihood of further improvement over fences. He is taken to strike again, perhaps at the chief expense of Lumi Plugin, who didn't do much wrong over hurdles last season and will be a threat if taking to the larger obstacles here. Starcrossed Lover was pitched into a strong handicap for his chase debut and he is also interesting.
