Verdict
FORTUNEDEFORTUNATA (NAP) was well at home on the testing ground at Navan and, though 9lb higher, looks progressive enough to complete a double. Fourth-placed One Last Tango should get closer on the revised terms without reversing the form. Encanto Bruno landed a Cheltenham handicap and will be more at home in this grade after finishing last in a Fairyhouse Grade 1. Nusret, a Grade 2 winner at Kempton in February, scored at the Curragh during the summer and has plenty of experience for a four-year-old while Conyers Hill ran an excellent race in a lucrative Listed handicap at Fairyhouse.
