Chagall (4/1), Fall For A Kiss (5/1), Raffaello (5/1), Legal Thriller (11/2), Adapt To Dan (13/2), Eye Of The Dragon (9/1), Knock Flyer (11/1), Double Coffee (12/1), St George's Head (14/1), Turf Range (14/1), Tham Luang (14/1), Beleaguerment (16/1), Autumn Mist (16/1), Olly's Folly (20/1), Talk Now (33/1), Barend Boy (66/1), Royal Hideaway (80/1)

EYE OF THE DRAGON looked like getting off the mark at Cork last time only to be worn down near the finish by the reopposingb Autumn Mist and a 2 lb swing in the weights could be enough for Mick Halford's charge to turn the tables. Double Coffee didn't make too bad a start for the Joseph O'Brien yard in claiming company last time and has a basement mark to work with now back in a handicap.
