Saturn (15/8), Ascending (10/3), Dutch Gold (4/1), Dark Oak (17/2), Satin (11/1), Razdan (11/1), Star Harbour (14/1), Westminster Moon (16/1), Polemon (25/1), Satono Chevalier (66/1)
SATURN did well to come from off a steady pace when a stylish scorer at Navan last time and can go in again here at the chief expense of easy Dundalk winner Ascending who rates a big danger. Dutch Gold wasn't seen to ideal effect when a recent fifth at Leopardstown and is another who can have a say in a competitive handicap. Dark Oak completes the shortlist.
