FORTUNATE GEORGE is too well handicapped on his chase form from last season to be easily ignored and he is taken to continue the good form of his stable. Coningsby shaped better at Carlisle last time and there should be more to come. Sandy Beach is normally seen in slightly stronger company and should play a part.
