Alan Dudman's two selections for Monday return around 19/120.00 in a multiple
Ffos Las is very rarely my port of call for a bet let alone a winner, and a Classified Stakes race would be even rarer, but Change Of Fortune is down in class after a winning a handicap and this is a race riddled with losers. Indeed, one is rated 39.
Change Of Fortune also has the jockey of the moment on in Elizabeth Gale who has ridden four winners from her last 17 rides at 24% and was on board Bernard Llewellyn's runner last time.
That was a win - over 1m and scored by over three lengths. He was held up and ground with ease in it and scooted away for his first career victory.
The field were very well strung out and the pace a good one considering they finished at a speed of 98% and there's no reason to doubt he'll get the extra two furlongs here. A win in this grade is like a flaring yellow lamp and with the going description as soft, won't mind the going.

I was a little surprised Forest Hills was drifting this morning from 9/25.50 out to 11/26.50, perhaps it's the going as he has winning form on good to firm, but he ran a good race on comeback for the season to keep us interested and has now gone back to his original price.
His return came over 1m4f at Salisbury - his first outing for 272 days and travelled well but was then completely locked in a pocket and his final two furlongs were far from resourceful running as an ill wind in terms of tactics blew for him and not others.
From that, he's down in class from a 0-68 to a 0-62 and sticks to 1m4f, a trip that could unlock some improvement further as he was a winner at Salisbury last August from 62. Only 2lb higher, he's worth another chance and I am hoping he can get away with different conditions.
