Mocking (5/2), What's Your Game (4/1), Junkyard Dog (9/2), Happiest (7/1), Birdie Time (9/1), Pallatine Hills (10/1), Georg Zhukov (12/1), Booklight (14/1), Glinka (20/1), Enziya (25/1), Longwinded Lady (33/1), William F Browne (40/1), Nakatomi (66/1)

Birdie Time also shaped as though ready for this stiffer test when a never-nearer sixth in the same Leopardstown handicap and she is second choice of Ballydoyle handicap debutante Happiest and What's Your Game.
