Lots with chances but BONA FORTUNA hasn't looked back since joining Mick Appleby and is fancied to make light of a 3 lb rise and go 3-3 for the yard now stepping up to 7f for the first time. Scarlet Lady goes unpenalised for her recent Yarmouth victory so rates an obvious threat, with handicap debutant Murashah and the handily-weighted Mercian Warrior also well in the mix. Fool's Gold completes the shortlist.
