        Verdict

        FORTAMOUR (NAP) completed a track and trip double when landing this a year ago and he's now 5lb lower. He was drawn on the wrong side when fourth here last time and can get back to winning ways. Both Selby's Pride and Mark's Choice were behind last time though the latter is a seven-times track winner. Twelfth Knight landed a Class 3 handicap at Redcar though was a bit disappointing at this level at Wetherby but Count D'orsay looks a big threat. He hasn't raced at Class 4 level since winning here in 2019 so should appreciate the drop in grade.
