Ballea Fox (4/1), Rooster Byron (5/1), Goodthynemilan (5/1), Spancil Hill (11/2), Nerual (9/1), The Church Gate (12/1), Battling Spirit (12/1), Isodon (12/1), Railway Tommy (14/1), Carole Rose (16/1), Therellalwaysbeone (16/1), Arch Stanton (20/1), Oh'herewego (25/1), Blue Empyrean (25/1)
The returning Carole Rose could lead the field in the early stages with Goodthyneinmilan and Blue Empyrean chasing in behind. If the Michael McDonagh-trained Spancil Hill doesn't get too far behind it could make for tight finish between the two market leaders along with Goodthyneinmilan conqueror and C&D winner BALLEA FOX who will be doing all his best work at the business end of the race.
- Ballea Fox
- Goodthynemilan
