MOLLY ROUND is progressing at a rate of knots and should gain her third success in four starts. Sam Waley-Cohen has been on board for both recent victories and gave Grant Cann's mare a very positive ride when making all over 3m1f at Taunton last week. It wasn't the greatest of races in which Sansili was beaten by Scrum V at Market Rasen last month but Peter Bowen's youngster was showing improved form and looked certain to be suited by this longer trip. Winning bumper King Of Leon has yet to produce the goods over timber though he did better behind Be My Light at Huntingdon but Pocket Too was beaten a long way at Leicester last time and looks as though he could do with some relief at the weights.
