Cask Mate (9/4), Elusive Exclusive (9/4), Thereisnodoubt (9/4), Rock River Valley (13/2), Keep Rocking (16/1), Inner Peace (16/1), Waky Flyer (33/1)
With ground conditions likely to be very testing and well poached by the time this race takes place, a proven ability to handle deep conditions will be a necessity. Elusive Exclusive has all of the attributes to be involved based upon his decent showing when third to Kirwans Lane at Roscommon earlier this month, but the form of THEREISNODOUBT from Sligo (runner up to Chess Grand Master) looks stronger. Despite this contest coming over a 2f shorter trip, the Augustine Leahy trained gelding can be expected to make it second time lucky in bumpers.
