Run For Pat (85/40), Sholsang (3/1), Kelly's Birr (7/2), Bout Time Bobby (13/2), Sleetansnow (14/1), Dovlator (16/1), So Ladylike (16/1), Knocky (18/1), Sixhandsinmypocket (20/1), Ask Philip (25/1), Every River (28/1), Copper Point (33/1), Hochtdeag (66/1)
RUN FOR PAT could be hard to beat with a repeat of his Tipperary second. Sholsang is interesting, while So Ladylike brings recent winning point form to the table and might be in the mix for minor honours.
