Run For Oscar (8/11), Julies Stowaway (3/1), Frontal Assault (10/3), Flanking Maneuver (4/1), Mighty Tom (7/1), Voitout (50/1), Westy Fox (80/1), Bachelor (100/1), San Fantastic (125/1), Half Shot (150/1), Added Bonus (150/1), Champagne Auction (150/1)

JULIES STOWAWAY was far from disgraced in the Champion Bumper at the Cheltenham Festival when last seen and has the scope to do well now going jumping, so he's preferred to Run For Oscar, who found only one too good on his hurdling debut at Listowel last month. Flanking Maneuver is also well respected.
