The Getaway Star (8/11), Ornua (11/5), Benbulben Boy (9/2), Tintean Fein (300/1)

Successful over hurdles at Limerick in May, THE GETAWAY STAR ran right up to her best when second in a Kilbeggan mares hurdle in June and, with sound claims on these terms, she gets the nod to resume winning ways. Ornua, who tasted success over fences recently, may well pose the chief threat.
