Forecasts

Quiet Resolve (3/1), Novarro (16/5), Native King (7/2), Cargin Bhui (9/2), Pocklington (8/1), Swing The Ring (17/2), Wedding Favour (18/1), Winter War (25/1), Mayo County (100/1), Sunblock (100/1), Court Of Roseann (200/1), Nobodys Girl (250/1)

SWING THE RING was held back by inexperience first time up but he may well have learned enough to open his account at the second attempt. He's preferred to recent Southwell winner Cargin Bhui, while Wedding Favour looks the pick of the newcomers.
