Verdict
Bernard Llewellyn saddled four in this last year including winner Resplendent Light. He goes one better this time around with a quintet of runners. SWEET WORLD may well be the pick ahead of the luckless Pandorica on his latest third over 1m2f here last month, when Taste The Wine and Tijori were behind, and he gets the nod. One For Joules disappointed when favourite over 2m at Catterick last time but can't be ignored in this grade.
