      Verdict

      AGENT OF FORTUNE went close again at Lingfield recently having won under today’s apprentice at Wolverhampton before that. The latter’s allowance negates a further rise in the weights and she can go in again. Parknacilla had been threatening to score before posting a poor effort here last time while J'ouvert had finished a close-up fourth before struggling at Wolverhampton. Canasta and Venusta drop back down in distance today with the latter debuting for new connections on her return to action.
