La Fortuna drops back down in trip under a penalty as she bids for a hat-trick with an apprentice’s allowance in her favour. But GOOD BUSINESS scored over the minimum trip at Yarmouth last time and, having landed a double here early in the year, Henry Spiller’s filly is taken to shrug off a 5lb rise in this. Red Stripes went close at Wolverhampton last week having slipped down the weights and he’s another to consider with Compton Poppy perhaps best of the rest.
