Davy Crockett (1/2), Mick Collins (4/1), Eternal Echo (5/1), Ephesus (13/2), A Snow White Park (11/1), Chortal (16/1), The Real Screamer (16/1), Los Toldos (28/1), Tuba (80/1), Jurality (200/1), Footstepstoglory (300/1), Move It On Over (300/1)

In keeping with his pedigree, DAVY CROCKETT looked destined for better things when winning a Punchestown bumper on debut and he may well be able to make a successful start over hurdles. Eternal Echo made a winning hurdle debut at Cork, travelling well and quickening clear after the last. He remains open to improvement and could be the main danger ahead of Ephesus who drops back to novice company after competing in Graded races.
