Forecasts

Empty Nest (10/3), Ring Pretender (4/1), Cudgel (8/1), The White Volcano (17/2), Stowaway John (11/1), Ex S'elance (12/1), Lights Are Green (12/1), Halfway House Lad (14/1), Warriors Story (14/1), Heeztheboy (14/1), The Paddy Pie (14/1), Follow Your Arrow (22/1), Glory (100/1)

Perhaps the first-time cheekpieces will help eke out a little more from EMPTY NEST and, if so, he could be the answer. The White Volcano is second choice, while Lights Are Green will have a fighting chance if close to his peak. The veteran Cudgel and Ex S'Elance are others to consider.
