Verdict

CHASE A FORTUNE easily opened his account at Catterick a fortnight ago and a penalty may not prevent the follow up in another weak race. Halpha Soleil wasn't beaten far on last month's UK/stable debut at Wetherby and is feared most ahead of Forcing Bull, who went off too hard in a Haydock bumper on his Rules debut in December.
