Msassa (7/4), Azua Emery (3/1), Veneer Of Charm (10/3), Les Arceaux (7/2), Warnaq (7/2), Muzbid (8/1), Waterville Dancer (12/1), Gloves On (14/1), Ilikehim (40/1), Noble Intention (66/1), Buffalo Blues (66/1)

A few of these bring some nice Flat form into the race, including Warnaq, a winner of a Naas maiden last time out, but preference is for MSASSA. This gelding by Sholokhov ran promisingly enough on his sole start in France. Having now been acquired by a top trainer in Willie Mullins everything looks set for him to run a big race here, following the footsteps of other French imports for this yard. Veneer Of Charm is narrowly preferred of the two Elliott runners, albeit mostly due to jockey bookings.
