Verdict

UNFORGIVEN represents a yard doing well with its juveniles, and is closely related to the unbeaten Harbour Watch. An entry in the Phoenix Stakes suggests he shows plenty at home, and he's taken to get the better of Crockford, who also holds big-race entries. Howling Ridge isn't so fashionably bred or trained, but shaped well on debut at the Curragh, and isn't taken lightly.
  1. Unforgiven
