Forecasts
Bumpy Evans (4/5), Unspeakable (10/11), School For Scandal (7/2), Dreamsundermyfeet (4/1), Firefly Lane (10/1), McGregors Charge (12/1), Game Line (25/1)
This looks between UNSPEAKABLE and Bumpy Evans. The latter is bound to be a warm order on the back of victories at Leicester and Ffos Las but this quick turnaround is reason enough to take him on. Unspeakable is just 1-18 under Rules but he's on workable mark and has shown enough on his last three starts to suggest that he has a race in him off this sort of mark. Dreamsundermyfeet has become disappointing and needs to get back on track now equipped with blinkers.
