Hawk Mountain (10/11), Perisher (9/4), Port Of Spain (7/2), Handshake (8/1), Star Chamber (20/1), Mr Vettori (50/1), Adel (50/1), Tiyadal (66/1)
PERISHER shaped like a future winner when only beaten by a well-backed favourite with previous experience on debut at Galway earlier this month and he may well go one better here. Hawk Mountain is bred in the purple and should progress from his debut fifth at this track, as should his stablemate Port of Spain who finished one place behind him that day.
