La Fortuna^t³^{(ex 6)}

Age: 5| Weight: 10-6| J: Gabriele Malune⁽⁵⁾| T: C Wallis| OR: 70| CD

13/8

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.

Form: 454511

Jorvik Prince²²

Age: 4| Weight: 9-10| J: Gemma Tutty⁽³⁾| T: K Tutty| OR: 66| BF| CD

5/1

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.

Form: 787430

Compton Poppy⁶⁰

Age: 4| Weight: 9-7| J: George Downing| T: R M H Cowell| OR: 63| D

10/1

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.

Form: 24-0744

Good Business^b⁴⁴

Age: 4| Weight: 9-3| J: Jim Crowley| T: H Spiller| OR: 59| C| D

3/1

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.

Form: 575451

Defining Moment^p1¹⁴

Age: 4| Weight: 9-1| J: M Harley| T: Rae Guest| OR: 57| D

10/1

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.

Form: 724698

(6)

Roy's Legacy²⁶

Age: 9| Weight: 8-13| J: Toby Eley⁽⁷⁾| T: S A Harris| OR: 55| CD

33/1

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.

Form: 295000

(7)

Red Stripes^b⁷

Age: 6| Weight: 8-9| J: Elisha Whittington⁽⁷⁾| T: L Williamson| OR: 51| CD

6/1

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)

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.
