Forecasts

Ney (6/4), Uther Pendragon (16/5), Reset Button (9/2), Silver Bubble (7/1), Foinix (8/1), Corsican Caper (12/1), King Athelstan (12/1), Cape Point (18/1), Hot Team (22/1), Craic At Dawn (22/1), Princess Nieve (100/1), Real Quiz (100/1)

Stable-switcher NEY could be worth chancing in this grade given the pick of his hurdling form. Silver Bubble and Uther Pendragon are feared most.
