Forecasts

Rubellite (13/8), Fleur De Mer (2/1), Bunker Bay (4/1), Percy Willis (11/2), Cushty (17/2), Speechman (12/1), Tracker Issue (16/1), Flying Scotsman (22/1), Susiesparkle (66/1)

FLYING SCOTSMAN was well held over hurdles when last seen in May, but the 8-y-o is interesting back in this sphere having scored over C&D off a similar mark when returning from a break in January. Rubellite proved better than ever when striking at Wolverhampton last time and she is feared most ahead of Fleur De Mer and the one who chased her home at Wolverhampton, Bunker Bay.
