UNQUESTIONABLE was just touched off by Coventry Stakes third Bucanero Fuerte in the Railway Stakes at the Curragh a month ago. Collateral form gives him the beating of Bobsleigh, Watch My Tracer, Asadna and Emperor's Son and the Wootton Bassett colt can go one better today. Jasour was a surprise but worthy winner of the July Stakes last month but that’s earned him a penalty. Vandeek missed the break and swerved leaving the stalls when well backed at Nottingham but still came through to win easily and could be a lot better than the bare form suggests. Sketch made all for a five-length victory at Newbury and is another with bags of scope.
