Fortune picks up Arc ride on Bull

Oct 3 2008 by Chris Wright, Liverpool Daily Post

RACING: Jimmy Fortune will ride Papal Bull in Sunday’s Prix de l’Arc de Triomphe.

Fortune picked up a 10-day ban at Nottingham on Wednesday, meaning he may miss partnering Rainbow View at the Breeders’ Cup, but he will be on his travels this weekend.

Fortune flies to Canada to ride Lucarno in the Pattison Canadian International on Saturday and then will head Longchamp to partner the Sir Michael Stoute-trained Papal Bull, who was just beaten by Duke Of Marmalade in the King George VI And Queen Elizabeth Stakes.
