Michael Rodd produced one of the rides of the Brisbane winter carnival to land Solzhenitsyn a consolation winner at Doomben on Saturday.
Solzhenitsyn was being set for the Group One Doomben Cup (2000m) on Saturday but trainer Robert Heathcote missed the early acceptance pay up!
The gelding was then entered for the Group Three Lord Mayor's Cup (1600m) where he was sent out the $2.40 favourite despite drawing the outside alley but he had won the race last year !
