Swing Pattern easily has the best form on offer but he's changed stables and looks vulnerable after failing to score in five starts. The ex-French Mudalalah made a promising start for Joanna Morgan over the C&D last month and will take some passing once in front but a chance is taken on MANAAQEB, who has moved to Jim Bolger after just one run last season in a very strong fillies' maiden at Naas. Stephen's Green has taken the reverse route having left Bolger's yard after a disappointing effort when strongly fancied for a Listowel maiden in September.
