Fortification
Sprang a 40-1 C&D surprise last week on first start since leaving Archie Watson, finishing fast to lead late on; now 4lb higher but he hasn't had much racing and there may be better still to come.

From the connections
“Fortification has showed lots of speed at home and I'd been telling the owners he's the fastest horse we've got. On the all-weather he's always been getting going towards the end. I told Ben [Robinson] if it wasn't happening early on, take your time and find the place to go from. We won't rush him and look after him - Brian Ellison, trainer.”
