Breaken (13/8), Gardens of Babylon (5/2), Cash Back (3/1), Dunvegan (6/1), Annamix (6/1), La Tektor (14/1), Capuccimix (16/1), Notebook (20/1), Cenotice (20/1), Filon D'Oudairies (50/1), Whatsinthecorner (100/1), Darling Days (100/1)
The four-year-old Gardens of Babylon has sound prospects in receipt of weight from most of his rivals, but Willie Mullins has a strong hand in this with three representatives and the best of them may be BREAKEN, who bolted up on his debut for the stable at Limerick and is the choice of Paul Townend. Cenotice looked good when winning at Ballinrobe and can get involved.
