Dewcup (9/4), Ever Present (10/3), Dinard Rose (4/1), Hector De Maris (4/1), Irish Poseidon (9/1), Effernock Fizz (10/1)

EVER PRESENT maintained his unbeaten record on the level in pretty taking fashion at Leopardstown last week and can find the necessary improvement to complete the hat-trick on handicap debut. Hector de Maris in feared most in receipt of his 3-y-o allowance.
