VERDICT - 4:00 CHELTENHAM

FORTUNE DE MER - - A-

FORTUNE DE MER travelled notably well to win a Grade 2 novice over course and distance last month and is expected to go very close on handicap debut. Second choice is Alphonse Le Grande who has some top flat form and looks to be on a good mark. Katakana is an each way player, as is Pure Gold.
