Verdict
LA MADONNINA (NAP) came home a smooth winner at Fontwell to record a first career success and land some tidy bets in the process. She cleared away in good style on just her third start over fences and should stay the additional yardage. The Society Man has been thereabouts in most starts in 2015 and posted his best performance of the year when a respectable second to Carter's Rest at Cartmel just four days ago. He stuck on well enough that day but does step up in trip now. Course and distance winner See You Jack looks on a fair mark whilst Lord Of The Dunes has place claims.
