Clitandre (2/1), Oakley Hall (9/4), Judgement Day (7/2), Derrinross (4/1), Fly Rory Fly (14/1), Ballinahinch (25/1), Catwalk King (40/1)
Clitandre is a respected rules debutant for the champion trainer but this isn't easy and he hasn't raced since a point-to-point win in February so is conceding fitness to some potentially above average rivals. Derrinross went close on New Year's Day at Fairyhouse and is clearly a threat but his jockey that day sides with OAKLEY HALL instead. He's twice settled for the runner-up role already but looks to be progressing and can put his experience to use now with a top bumper rider on top. Judgement Day is another that made a good impression in a Limerick bumper in December and is very capable of improving in this competitive looking finale.
