FORTULTOUS just prevailed here last month before being brought down at Wolverhampton in a nasty incident earlier this month. If he is none the worse for that then he should take all the beating. Grimsthorpe Castle is thriving here at the moment and he won't be far away. Star Ascending has each-way claims back at this venue.
