In rude health having won her last two over 6f. Drop in trip not absolutely ideal but she's a sprinter in form and should go well once more up with riders claim offsetting the rise in the weights.

Has won four times on the AW including over this C&D. Disappointed the last twice on turf but should be more at home here and is drawn well.

Sole win was over 5f in a Chepstow maiden in 2016. On a good mark now and has run with more promise the last twice. Would have a squeak here if returning to her best form.

Has won here and bounced back to form over this trip at Yarmouth last time when under pressure for most of the race. Up 5lb here and will need to be more on her game to follow-up.

Not been in the best of form of late and has now dropped back down below her last winning mark. Has a good draw and the cheekpieces are added but others have stronger claims.

C&D winner who has been well held on two starts since returning from a break. Not on a bad mark but will need to up game considerably to win this.

All career wins have come on the AW including over this C&D (won this race last year). Ran well at Wolverhampton last time but not the ideal draw here to try and press forward. Vulnerable if taken on for lead as doesn't always find a lot.

Forecasts

La Fortuna (13/8), Good Business (3/1), Jorvik Prince (5/1), Red Stripes (6/1), Just Us Two (7/1), Compton Poppy (10/1), Defining Moment (10/1), Roy's Legacy (33/1)

20:45 Chelmsford City - 29 September 2018 - Racecard - Horse Racing - Sporting Life

La Fortuna is thriving and will be a force once more but this drop in trip is not ideal. Good Business won well last time and should play a part once more. Slight preference is for COMPTON POPPY who hasn't been with Robert Cowell all that long and has shaped like a win is imminent.
  1. Compton Poppy
  2. La Fortuna
  3. Good Business
