Forecasts

Bernard Spierpoint (11/8), Fircombe Hall (11/4), My Genghis (3/1), Tathmeen (7/2), Hailey Ya Mal (13/2), Mr Funky Monkey (15/2), Ohnojoe (12/1), Royal Expert (22/1), Banana (66/1)

This is a distinctly weak event and BERNARD SPIERPOINT showed a good attitude to score at Brighton 4 days ago, so he's worth a chance to defy another penalty despite the quick turnaround. Fircombe Hall should be involved and Tathmeen could play a part if the race doesn't come too soon.
