Love Me Tender (1/4), Zillow (9/2), Whimsy (13/2), Icare D'aubrelle (10/1), Arch Empire (12/1), Pampar Lady (16/1), Kilbuny Supersonic (20/1), God Of Thunder (28/1)

Willie Mullins has won 9 of the last 10 renewals of this race and his hat-trick seeking LOVE ME TENDER is fancied to enhance that record. Whimsy seems to have turned a corner with her behaviour at the start and was better than ever when runner-up at Navan on her return last month, while Willie Mullins' other runner Zillow showed improvement to get off the mark at Kilbeggan last time and should go well again. Gavin Cromwell's highly progressive mare Pampar Lady deserves an honourable mention.
